A Monitoring of Allantoin, Uric Acid, and Malondialdehyde Levels In
A Monitoring of Allantoin, Uric Acid, and Malondialdehyde Levels in Plasma and Erythrocytes after a 10-Minute Running Activity ROMAN KANĎÁR, XENIE ŠTRAMOVÁ, PETRA DRÁBKOVÁ, JANA KŘENKOVÁ Department of Biological and Biochemical Sciences, Faculty of Chemical Technology, University of Pardubice, Pardubice, Czech Republic A running title: Allantoin and Uric Acid Levels after Running Activity Correspondence to: Roman Kanďár, Ph.D., Department of Biological and Biochemical Sciences, Faculty of Chemical Technology, University of Pardubice, Studentska 573, 532 10 Pardubice, Czech Republic Tel.: +420 466037714 Fax: +420 466037068 E-mail: [email protected] Keywords: allantoin, uric acid, oxidative stress, antioxidants, short-term intense exercise 1 Summary Uric acid is the final product of human purine metabolism. It was pointed out that this compound acts as an antioxidant and is able to react with reactive oxygen species forming allantoin. Therefore, the measurement of allantoin levels may be used for the determination of oxidative stress in humans. The aim of the study was to clarify the antioxidant effect of uric acid during intense exercise. Whole blood samples were obtained from a group of healthy subjects. Allantoin, uric acid, and malondialdehyde levels in plasma and erythrocytes were measured using a HPLC with UV/Vis detection. Statistical significant differences in allantoin and uric acid levels during short-term intense exercise were found. Immediately after intense exercise, the plasma allantoin levels increased on the average of two hundred per cent in comparison to baseline. Plasma uric acid levels increased slowly, at an average of twenty per cent. On the other hand, there were no significant changes in plasma malondialdehyde. -

Identification of Compounds That Rescue Otic and Myelination
RESEARCH ARTICLE Identification of compounds that rescue otic and myelination defects in the zebrafish adgrg6 (gpr126) mutant Elvira Diamantopoulou1†, Sarah Baxendale1†, Antonio de la Vega de Leo´ n2, Anzar Asad1, Celia J Holdsworth1, Leila Abbas1, Valerie J Gillet2, Giselle R Wiggin3, Tanya T Whitfield1* 1Bateson Centre and Department of Biomedical Science, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, United Kingdom; 2Information School, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, United Kingdom; 3Sosei Heptares, Cambridge, United Kingdom Abstract Adgrg6 (Gpr126) is an adhesion class G protein-coupled receptor with a conserved role in myelination of the peripheral nervous system. In the zebrafish, mutation of adgrg6 also results in defects in the inner ear: otic tissue fails to down-regulate versican gene expression and morphogenesis is disrupted. We have designed a whole-animal screen that tests for rescue of both up- and down-regulated gene expression in mutant embryos, together with analysis of weak and strong alleles. From a screen of 3120 structurally diverse compounds, we have identified 68 that reduce versican b expression in the adgrg6 mutant ear, 41 of which also restore myelin basic protein gene expression in Schwann cells of mutant embryos. Nineteen compounds unable to rescue a strong adgrg6 allele provide candidates for molecules that may interact directly with the Adgrg6 receptor. Our pipeline provides a powerful approach for identifying compounds that modulate GPCR activity, with potential impact for future drug design.

Allantoin a Safe and Effective Skin Protectant
Allantoin A safe and effective skin protectant 1. Overview Allantoin, as a natural compound derived from Symphytum officinale, has long been known for its beneficial effects on skin. It is an active compound with keratolytic, keratoplastic, soothing and healing properties largely used in cosmetic, topical pharmaceutical and veterinary products. Allantoin is an anti-irritating and non-toxic agent listed in United States Pharmacopeia, European Pharmacopoeia, Merck Index and British Pharmacopoeial Codex. FDA recognizes allantoin as a skin protectant active ingredient for over-the-counter (OTC) human use. 2.
