Visualized discrimination of ATP from ADP and AMP through collapse of supramolecular gels.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A supramolecular gel was fabricated through mixing of a cationic gelator with methyl orange. The addition of ATP into the gel caused a distinct gel-collapse, whereas ADP and AMP preserved the gel formation. This observation provided a simple visualized way to discriminate ATP from AMP and ADP.

The effects of ginsenoside Rb1 on fatty acid β-oxidation, mediated by AMPK, in the failing heart
Objective(s): This study intended to investigate the effects of Ginsenoside-Rbl (Gs-Rbl) on fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO) in rat failing heart and to identify potential mechanisms of Gs-Rbl improving heart failure (HF) by FAO pathway dependent on AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Materials and Methods: Rats with chronic HF, induced by adriamycin (Adr), were randomly grouped into 7 groups. Gs-...
متن کاملDiscrimination of adenine nucleotides and pyrophosphate in water by a zinc complex of an anthracene-based cyclophane.
Combining metal-anion coordination and π-π stacking interactions, a zinc complex of a novel anthracene-based cyclophane was designed to recognise adenine nucleoside polyphosphates. This complex was found to show selective fluorescence enhancement for ATP, ADP, AMP and PPi in neutral aqueous solution. Among them, ADP induced the largest fluorescence change to the complex, while ATP showed the st...
متن کاملMODULATION OF MITOCHONDRIAL UPTAKE OF A DENOSINE BY NITROBENZYLTHIOINOSINE
In this study the uptake and metabolism of adenosine by mitochondria has been investigated. Incubation of CEM cells mitochondria preparation with [3H] -adenosine showed substantial uptake and metabolism of adenosine. Adenosine was both anabolized to AMP, ADP and ATP, and also catabolized to inosine. The highest concentration of metabolites in extracted mitochondria was due to AMP. The mito...
متن کاملADP and AMP induce interleukin-1beta release from microglial cells through activation of ATP-primed P2X7 receptor channels.
P2X(7) is a subtype of ATP-gated channels that is highly expressed in astrocytes, microglia, and other immune cells. Activation of P2X(7) purinoceptors by ATP or 3'-O-(4-benzoyl)-benzoyl ATP (BzATP) induces the formation of cytolytic pores and provokes release of interleukin-1beta from immune cells. We investigated the actions of other endogenous nucleotides on recombinant and microglial P2X(7)...
متن کاملIdentification of a receptor for ADP on blood platelets by photoaffinity labelling.
The synthesis of a new analogue of ADP, 2-(p-azidophenyl)-ethythioadenosine 5'-diphosphate (AzPET-ADP), is described. This compound contains a photolabile phenylazide group attached to the ADP molecule by a thioether link at the purine 2 position. It has been prepared in radioactive form with 32P in the beta-phosphate at a specific radioactivity of 100 mCi/mumol. The reagent activated platelets...
