Disrupted NAD(P) Metabolism and Xanthine Dehydrogenase in a Stress-Induced Rat Model of Depression: NMR Metabolomics Insights [PDF]
Background: Clinical findings have shown a negative correlation between the severity of depressive symptoms and serum uric acid levels in men, yet the role of metabolic regulation in the pathophysiology of depression remains largely unknown.

Implication of xanthine oxidoreductase in oxidative stress-related chronic diseases [PDF]
Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) catalyzes the final steps of purine catabolism: the oxidation of hypoxanthine to xanthine, and xanthine to UA. XOR exists as interconvertible proteoforms, xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) and xanthine oxidase (XO).

Potential Opportunities for Pharmacogenetic-Based Therapeutic Exploitation of Xanthine Dehydrogenase in Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
The majority of naturally occurring mutations of the human gene XDH, are associated with reduced or completely absent xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) activity, leading to a disease known as classical xanthinuria, which is due to the accumulation and ...

The hitchhiker’s guide to feline xanthinuria [PDF]
Feline xanthinuria is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of purine metabolism due to genetic mutations in the xanthine dehydrogenase ( XDH ) gene. It is characterised by excessive excretion and accumulation of xanthine in the urine, which can lead to ...

XDH-1 inactivation causes xanthine stone formation in Caenorhabditis elegans which is inhibited by SULP-4-mediated anion exchange in the excretory cell. [PDF]
Xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) is a molybdenum cofactor (Moco) requiring enzyme that catabolizes hypoxanthine into xanthine and xanthine into uric acid, the final steps in purine catabolism.

Absence of xanthine oxidase or xanthine dehydrogenase in the rabbit myocardium [PDF]
We directly measured the activity of the enzymes xanthine oxidase and xanthine dehydrogenase in rabbit and rat hearts, using a sensitive radiochemical assay. Neither xanthine oxidase activity nor xanthine dehydrogenase activity was detected in the rabbit heart.

Quantification of Uric Acid or Xanthine in Plant Samples
We developed this protocol to assay and quantify the content of uric acid or xanthine in various tissues of Arabidopsis thaliana mutant lines with defective urate oxidase or xanthine dehydrogenase1 and in their complementation and suppressor lines (Hauck

The Role of Xanthine Oxidase and Xanthine Dehydrogenase in Skin Ischemia [PDF]
The importance of sequential events which lead to skin necrosis has significant implications in trauma, vascular injury, and wound healing. In this series of experiments, we tested the hypothesis that xanthine oxidase (XO) activity was increased along an ischemic gradient of a skin flap and that the XO enzyme activity correlated with an increase in ...

Distribuição da xantina oxidase no fígado e no sôro de rato
The localization of the xanthine oxidase (X.O.) and xanthine dehydrogenase (X.D.) activities in rat liver have been studied using separation of cytoplasmic particles into fractions by differential centrifugation.
