Organophosphorus chemistry has a crucial role in the field of drug research [1]. As generally well known, Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) plays key energy processes all living cells mammals. There are also natural phosphorus containing organic compound, Phosphocitrate (PC), found mammalian mitochondria, likely produced by cytosolic phosphorylation citrate, and which important calcium metabolism, e...

The adenosine triphosphate3 of Thiobacillus thiooxidans is of special interest because LePage and Umbreit (1943b) presented evidence that it differs from the adenosine triphosphate of other organisms by having the phosphate groups attached to the 3' instead of the 5' position of adenosine. All other bacteria and higher organisms so far examined contain adenosine-5'triphosphate (5'-ATP). Since d...

OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of oral sucrose on procedural pain, and on biochemical markers of adenosine triphosphate utilization and oxidative stress in preterm neonates with mild to moderate respiratory distress. STUDY DESIGN Preterm neonates with a clinically required heel lance that met study criteria (n = 49) were randomized into three groups: (1) control (n = 24), (2) heel lance tre...

After hypoxia, ischemia, or inflammatory injuries to the central nervous system, the damaged cells release a large amount of adenosine triphosphate, which may cause secondary neuronal death. Autophagy is a form of cell death that also has neuroprotective effects. Cell Counting Kit assay, monodansylcadaverine staining, flow cytometry, western blotting, and real-time PCR were used to determine th...

while the oecd test guidelines and mostly animal assays have been used to study the toxic effects of chemicals for many years, very little is known about the potential toxicity of vast majority of inhaled chemicals. considering large number of chemicals and complex mixtures present in indoor and outdoor air, heavy reliance on animal test methods appear to be not adequate. continuing scientific ...
