This study evaluated whether pyridinium cross-links, which are positively charged, besides renal clearance are also cleared by the liver into bile. In 13 human bile samples tested, we were able to detect both pyridinoline (PYD) and deoxypyridinoline (DPD) in small amounts which were estimated to be

Liver samples from patients with three different types of liver diseases, alveolar echinococcosis (a dense and irreversible fibrosis), hepatocellular carcinoma and alcoholic cirrhosis, were analyzed for their content in hydroxypyridinium cross-links found in mature collagen. We demonstrated the pres
We developed a sensitive reversed-phase high perfonnance liquid chromatography (HPLC) assay to measure free and total Pyridinoline (Pyr) and Deoxypyridinoline (Dpyr) in serum. The method was used to measure total serum levels in seven premenopausal women (ages 52.2 Β± 2.4 years) and to investigate th
