Hypouricemic Actions of Exopolysaccharide Produced by Cordyceps militaris in Potassium Oxonate-Induced Hyperuricemic Mice

TL;DR: EPCM has a hypouricemic effect caused by decreases in urate production and the inhibition of XOD activities in hyperuricemic mice, and this natural product exhibited more potential efficacy than allopurinol in renal protection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma profiling of amino acids distinguishes acute gout from asymptomatic hyperuricemia.

TL;DR: L-isoleucine, l-lysine, and l-alanine could be the potential markers to distinguish the AG from AHU when the patients have similar blood levels of uric acid, providing new strategies for the prevention, treatment, and management of acute gout.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cost of illness and determinants of costs among patients with gout.

TL;DR: The direct and indirect costs-of-illness of gout are primarily associated with cardiovascular disease, functional limitations, and female sex.

Breather solutions of the discrete p-Schr\"odinger equation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the discrete p-Schr\"odinger (DpS) equation, which approximates small amplitude oscillations in chains of oscillators with fully-nonlinear nearest-neighbors interactions of order alpha = p-1 > 1.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA hypomethylation of a transcription factor binding site within the promoter of a gout risk gene NRBP1 upregulates its expression by inhibition of TFAP2A binding

TL;DR: Hypomethylation at the promoter region of NRBP1 reduces the binding of TFAP2A and thus leads to elevatedNRBP1 expression, which might contribute to the development of gout.

A Laboratory manual

M. Ashburner
TL;DR: To develop a program to print the barcodes using two commonly uses command sets and hence evaluates their ease of use for such applications, students should be able to program dot matrix printers, by manipulating bit level information and ink jet printers using page description language, such as PCL.
