Tetrahydrobiopterin Biosynthesis as a Potential Target of the Kynurenine Pathway Metabolite Xanthurenic Acid

Rudolf Hovius, Kai Johnsson, Miriam Grønlund Pedersen, Hirohito Haruki

Tryptophan metabolites in the kynurenine pathway are up-regulated by pro-inflammatory cytokines or glucocorticoids, and are linked to anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive activities. In addition, they are up-regulated in pathologies such as cancer, auto ...

Inhibition of Sepiapterin Reductase through Formation of a Ternary Complex with Sulfasalazine or other Sulfa Drugs and NADP+

Miriam Grønlund Pedersen

The mechanism of action of sulfasalazine, an anti-inflammatory drug used against inflammatory bowel diseases and rheumatoid arthritis is, despite its medical importance, still not well understood. Recently, it was shown that sulfasalazine and its metabolit ...

Tetrahydrobiopterin Biosynthesis as an Off-Target of Sulfa Drugs

Kai Johnsson, Florence Pojer, Miriam Grønlund Pedersen, Hirohito Haruki, Katarzyna Irena Gorska

The introduction of sulfa drugs for the chemotherapy of bacterial infections in 1935 revolutionized medicine. Although their mechanism of action is understood, the molecular bases for most of their side effects remain obscure. Here, we report that sulfamet ...

Searching for the Protein Targets of Bioactive Molecules

Kai Johnsson, Christopher Chidley, Cindy Fellay, Miriam Grønlund Pedersen, Simone Moser, Hirohito Haruki

The identification of all protein targets of a given drug or bioactive molecule within the human body is a prerequisite for an understanding of its beneficial and deleterious activities. Current approaches to reveal protein targets often fail to reveal phy ...
