  • Relevance to Neurological Damage
    Postgrad Med J: first published as 10.1136/pgmj.62.724.113 on 1 February 1986. Downloaded from Postgraduate Medical Journal (1986) 62, 113-123 Pteridines and mono-amines: relevance to neurological damage I. Smith, D.W. Howells and K. Hyland Institute ofChildHealth (University ofLondon), 30 Guilford Street, London WCIN2NR, UK. Summary: Patients with phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency show increased concentrations of biopterins and neopterins, and reduced concentrations ofserotonin and catecholamines, when phenylalan- ine concentrations are raised. The pterin rise reflects increased synthesis of dihydroneopterin and tetrahydrobiopterin, and the amine fall a reduction in amine synthesis due to inhibition by phenylalanine of tyrosine and typtophan transport into neurones. The pterin and amine changes appear to be independent of each other and are present in the central nervous system as well as the periphery; they disappear when phenylalanine concentrations are reduced to normal. Patients with arginase deficiency show a similar amine disturbance but have normal pterin levels. The amine changes probably contribute neurological symptoms but pterin disturbance is not known to affect brain function. Patients with defective biopterin metabolism exhibit severely impaired amine synthesis due to tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency. Pterin concentrations vary with the site of the defect. Symptoms include profound hypokiesis and other features of basal ganglia disease. Neither symptoms nor amine changes are relieved by controlling phenylalanine concentrations. Patients with dihydropteridine reductase (DHPR) deficiency accumulate dihydrobiopterins and develop secondary folate deficiency which resembles that occurring in patients with defective 5,10-methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase activity. The latter disorder is also associated writh Parkinsonisn and defective amine and pterin turnover in the and a occurs in In central nervous system, demyelinating illness both disorders.

  • Massive Parallel Sequencing As a New Diagnostic Approach For
    Chaiyasap et al. BMC Medical Genetics (2017) 18:102 DOI 10.1186/s12881-017-0464-x RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Massive parallel sequencing as a new diagnostic approach for phenylketonuria and tetrahydrobiopterin-deficiency in Thailand Pongsathorn Chaiyasap1, Chupong Ittiwut1,2, Chalurmpon Srichomthong1,2, Apiruk Sangsin3, Kanya Suphapeetiporn1,2,4* and Vorasuk Shotelersuk1,2 Abstract Background: Hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) can be classified into phenylketonuria (PKU) which is caused by mutations in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene, and BH4 deficiency caused by alterations in genes involved in tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) biosynthesis pathway. Dietary restriction of phenylalanine is considered to be the main treatment of PKU to prevent irreversible intellectual disability. However, the same dietary intervention in BH4 deficiency patients is not as effective, as BH4 is also a cofactor in many neurotransmitter syntheses. Method: We utilized next generation sequencing (NGS) technique to investigate four unrelated Thai patients with hyperphenylalaninemia. Result: We successfully identified all eight mutant alleles in PKU or BH4-deficiency associated genes including three novel mutations, one in PAH and two in PTS, thus giving a definite diagnosis to these patients. Appropriate management can then be provided. Conclusion: This study identified three novel mutations in either the PAH or PTS gene and supported the use of NGS as an alternative molecular genetic approach for definite diagnosis of hyperphenylalaninemia, thus leading to proper management of these patients in Thailand. Keywords: Next generation sequencing, Exome, Hyperphenylalaninemia, Phenylketonuria, Tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency, Newborn screening Background 120 μmol/l (2 mg/dl), the individual is considered to be Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an autosomal recessive metabolic hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) and needs further diagnosis disorder, characterized by progressive intellectual disability, [4].

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is an essential cofactor for dopamine (DA), noradrenaline (NA), serotonin and nitric oxide (NO) synthesis in the brain. Inborn errors of BH4 metabolism including GTP cyclohydrolase 1 (GTP-CH) deficiency are debilitating diseases in which BH4, DA, 5-HT and NO metabolism are impaired. Current treatment for these disorders is typically monoamine replacement +/- BH4. Whilst correction of the primary defect is the ideal, BH4 treatment is problematic as it is expensive and inefficacious.

  • Ultra Fast HPLC Food & Beverages YMC Ultraht
    Application Guide Ultra Fast HPLC Food & Beverages YMC UltraHT HPLC Columns for Ultra Fast LC Nowadays the need for Ultra Fast LC and Rapid Resolution is still growing, especially in the pharmaceutical industry, due to the continuous demand for high throughput analysis in research & development and quality control. As a column and bulk media supplier with many years of practical chromato- graphic experience, YMC found it unacceptable that the use of novel sepa- ration media is often restricted to dedicated equipment and not applicable to the large installed base of “conventional” HPLC systems with a standard operating pressure rating of less than 400 bar. For this reason, specifications for YMC-UltraHT columns were designed to provide powerful chromatographic improvements, in terms of velocity and resolution, with conventional operating conditions as well as ultra-high pressure systems. Since YMC-UltraHT columns provides a substantially lower pressure drop than most competitive 2 µm or sub-2 µm media, high flow rates can be achieved without generating excessive back pressure and without the need for specialised equipment. For effective high throughput separations, YMC offer a wide range of high per- formance HPLC columns, which allow Ultra Fast analytical HPLC separations using conventional equipment. Due to the down-scalability of the majority of YMC’s stationary phases, the time needed for a single analysis can be reduced to less than 60 seconds, depending on the sample conditions.

    Effects of allopurinol and oxipurinol on purine synthesis in cultured human cells William N. Kelley, James B. Wyngaarden J Clin Invest. 1970;49(3):602-609. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI106271. Research Article In the present study we have examined the effects of allopurinol and oxipurinol on thed e novo synthesis of purines in cultured human fibroblasts. Allopurinol inhibits de novo purine synthesis in the absence of xanthine oxidase. Inhibition at lower concentrations of the drug requires the presence of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase as it does in vivo. Although this suggests that the inhibitory effect of allopurinol at least at the lower concentrations tested is a consequence of its conversion to the ribonucleotide form in human cells, the nucleotide derivative could not be demonstrated. Several possible indirect consequences of such a conversion were also sought. There was no evidence that allopurinol was further utilized in the synthesis of nucleic acids in these cultured human cells and no effect of either allopurinol or oxipurinol on the long-term survival of human cells in vitro could be demonstrated. At higher concentrations, both allopurinol and oxipurinol inhibit the early steps ofd e novo purine synthesis in the absence of either xanthine oxidase or hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase. This indicates that at higher drug concentrations, inhibition is occurring by some mechanism other than those previously postulated.

  • Biosynthesis of Tetrahydrobiopterin in Man
    J. tnher. Metab. Dis. 8 Suppl. 1 (I985) 28-33 Biosynthesis of Tetrahydrobiopterin in Man H.-CH. CURTIUS, D. HEINTEL, S. GHISLA1, TH. KUSTER, W. LEIMBACHER and A. NIEDERWIESER Division of Clinical Chemistry, Department of Pediatrics, University of Zurich, Switzerland t Department of Biology, University of Constance, POB 5560, D-7750 Constance, FRG The biosynthesis oftetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) from dihydroneopterin triphosphate (NHzP3) was studied in human liver extract. The phosphate-eliminating enzyme (PEE) was purified ~ 750-fold. The conversion of NH2P3 to BH~ was catalyzed by this enzyme in the presence of partially purified sepiapterin reductase, Mg z ÷ and NADPH. The PEE is heat stable when heated at 80 °C for 5 min. It has a molecular weight of 63 000 daltons. One possible intermediate 6-(l'-hydroxy-2'-oxopropyl)5,6,7,8-tetrahydropterin(2'-oxo-tetrahydro- pterin) was formed upon incubation of BH4 in the presence of sepiapterin reductase and NADP ÷ at pH 9.0. Reduction of this compound with NaBD4 yielded monodeutero threo and erythro-BH4, the deuterium was incorporated at the 2' position. This and the UV spectra were consistent with a 2'-oxo-tetrahydropterin structure. Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) catalyzed the reduction of BH2 to BH4 and was found to be specific for the pro-R-NADPH side. The sepiapterin reductase catalyzed the transfer of the pro-S hydrogen of NADPH during the reduction of sepiapterin to BHa. In the presence of crude liver extracts the conversion of NHzP3 to BH4 requires NADPH. Two deuterium atoms were incorporated from (4S-2H)NADHP in the 1' and 2' position of the BH4 side chain.

Plasma oxipurinol as well as allopurinol was increased after the administration of allopurinol, and oxipurinol reached a maximum level of 13 1 ,u.g/ml at 6 hours after the administration. This was the same pattern as that of normal controls. This result demonstrated the existence of some other oxidising enzyme of allopurinol than xanthine oxidase.
