173 results about "S-Adenosyl methionine" patented technology

S-Adenosyl methionine is a common cosubstrate involved in methyl group transfers, transsulfuration, and aminopropylation. Although these anabolic reactions occur throughout the body, most SAM-e is produced and consumed in the liver. More than 40 methyl transfers from SAM-e are known, to various substrates such as nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and secondary metabolites. It is made from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and methionine by methionine adenosyltransferase (EC 2.5.1.6). SAM was first discovered by Giulio Cantoni in 1952.

Method for protecting humans against superficial vasodilator flush syndrome,

Methods for protection of a human from SVFS comprise the administration of a flavonoid compound of the basic structures 2-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran or 2-phenyl-4-keto-1-benzopyran or glycosides thereof, alone or, optionally, together with one or more of an olive kernel extract, a non-bovine sulfated proteoglycan, bitter willow extract, a D-hexosamine sulfate, S-adenosylmethionine, folic acid, vitamin B12 and a serotonin inhibitor. Such treatment prevents, reduces or eliminates SVFS in patients receiving as much as 300-3000 mg / day of niacin therapeutically, whether administered prior to, or along with, an anti-SVFS composition.

Molecular markers of hepatocellular carcinoma and their applications

By means of a proteomic approach, the markers of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the liver of a knockout mouse (MAT1A− / −) have been identified for the MAT1A gene (deficient in the synthesis of S-adenosylmethionine). 27 proteins have been detected the expression thereof is altered in, at least, 50% of the analysed tumours. Amongst them, 13 proteins have been validated in biopsies of patients with HCC of different etiology, and 7 of them have been validated in biopsies of patients with liver cirrhosis, a stage prior to the development of HCC, which makes it possible to differentiate between prior stages of the disease and even between different etiologies (viral and alcoholic). Having a panel of markers available may contribute to more accurately defining the alterations associated with the development of HCC and thus facilitate prognosis and diagnosis of this disease.
