Journal ArticleDOI

E-NTPDase and E-ADA activities are altered in lymphocytes of patients with indeterminate form of Chagas' disease.

TL;DR: The enzymatic alterations observed are in agreement with the immune response against T. cruzi infection in IFCD patients, since the decreased extracellular ATP and the increased adenosine levels trigger a Th2 anti-inflammatory response, which it is associated to adaptation of host to parasite, preventing clinical progress of disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Delta-aminolevulinate dehydratase (δ-ALA-D) activity in diabetes and hypothyroidism

TL;DR: It is shown that there is a correlation among diabetes, hypothyroidism and δ-ALA-D activity, and another finding of this study suggests that states of hypofunction of the thyroid gland, when non-compensated, increase the activity of δ
Journal ArticleDOI

Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase (E-NPP) and adenosine deaminase (ADA) activities in patients with uterine cervix neoplasia.

TL;DR: The tendency of reduction for E-NPP and ADA indicates that they may act together to control nucleotide levels and it may also be speculated that surgery causes greater platelet activation contributing to the changes seen in the conization groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antioxidant system activation by mercury in Pfaffia glomerata plantlets.

TL;DR: In general, AsA, NPSH and proline concentrations increased upon addition of Hg, with the exception of proline in roots, which decreased, and changes in enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants had a significant protective effect on P glomerata plantlets under mild Hg-stressed conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro effects of L-arginine and guanidino compounds on NTPDase1 and 5'-nucleotidase activities from rat brain synaptosomes.

TL;DR: The results suggest that changes in nucleotide hydrolysis may be involved in the brain dysfunction caused by hyperargininemia amongst other potential pathophysiological mechanisms involved in this condition.
