our previous studies have shown that median and ulnar nerve lesion induced calbindin (cb) immunoreactivity in some injured motoneurons in developing rats. motoneuron death induced by sciatic nerve transection in neonatal rats has been related to induction of neuronal isoform of nitric oxide synthase (nnos). the present study investigated whether expression of cb and nicotinomid adenin dinucleot...

The milestone of Adenosine Diphosphate-ribosylation studies was the paper by Paul Mandel's group in 1960s, first describing a "sort" of polyadenylic acid synthesized upon addition of nicotinamide mononucleotide in rat liver nuclear extracts. Nicotinic Acid or Niacin is the precursor of Nicotinamide Adenin Dinucleotide. In 1960s this compound was known mainly as coenzyme of most redox processes ...

Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate represents a newly identified second messenger in T cells involved in antigen receptor-mediated calcium signalling. Its function in vivo is, however, unknown due to the lack of biocompatible inhibitors. Using a recently developed inhibitor, we explored the role of nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate in autoreactive effector T cells during ...

Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) from Streptomyces aureofaciens was purified and denatured in 6 M urea. Denaturation led to complete dissociation of the enzyme into its inactive monomers, 98% loss of the enzyme activity, about 30% decrease in the protein fluorescence and a 10 nm red shift in the emission maximum. Dilution of urea-denatured enzyme resulted in regaining of the enzyme acti...

The structural requirements of the NADP+ molecule as a coenzyme in the oxidative decarboxylation reaction catalysed by pigeon liver malic enzyme were studied by kinetic and fluorimetric analyses with various NADP+ analogues and fragments. The substrate L-malate had little effect on the nucleotide binding. Etheno-NADP+, 3-acetylpyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate, and nicotinamide-hypoxanthi...

background: role of nitric oxide (no) in morphine-induced conditioned place preference (cpp) has already been proposed in the rat medial septum (ms), but no molecular evidence has been provided to clear this fact. methods: effects of intraseptal injections of l-arginine and/or ng-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-name) on morphine place conditioning in wistar rats were examined. morphine (2.5-7....
