Riboflavin (vitamin B2) is a precursor for coenzymes involved in energy production, biosynthesis, detoxification, and electron scavenging. Previously, we demonstrated that irradiated riboflavin (IR) has potential antitumoral effects against human leukemia cells (HL60), human prostate cancer cells
Our objective was to describe clinical features and predisposing factors attributed to lactic acidosis in 4 HIV-infected patients on long-term nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) therapy. All patients had received at least 6-20 months of NRTI-containing antiretroviral therapy: all used
In AIDS, only a few types of tumors (mainly Kaposi's sarcoma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma) increase in incidence despite global abnormalities in the immune system. In addition, the reason for the higher incidence of these tumors is not immunosuppression but other agents. This shows that the immune
Previously we have hypothesized that the small molecules which are selectively accumulated in cancer cells might participate in a non-immunological antitumor surveillance mechanism. We demonstrated earlier that a mixture of experimentally selected substances ("active mixture", AM: L-arginine,
Gomori's metal precipitate technique was used to demonstrate the phosphatase activity of the human cervical lymph node in health and disease, using four different phosphate esters (sodium beta-glycerophosphate and adenosine triphosphate at pH 9, riboflavin 5'-phosphate at pH 9.2 and
