    The version 3.5 of the HMDB contains >16,000 endogenous metabolites, >1,500 drugs and >22,000 food constituents or food metabolites. [32] This information, available at the Human Metabolome Database and based on analysis of information available in the current scientific literature, is far from complete. [ 33 ]

  3. Thrombin generation assay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombin_generation_assay

    A thrombin generation assay (TGA) or thrombin generation test (TGT) is a global coagulation assay (GCA) and type of coagulation test which can be used to assess coagulation and thrombotic risk. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It is based on the potential of a plasma to generate thrombin over time, following activation of coagulation via addition of ...

Non-homogenous: realization of the three-dimensional model of the clot growth; Use of platelet free plasma; Record of information about the clot formation as a diagram, giving the possibility to calculate the key parameters of the blood coagulation system; New test, not widely accepted; Overall hemostatic potential (OHP)

  5. Endogeny (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endogeny_(biology)

    For example, endogenous substances, and endogenous processes are those that originate within a living system (e.g. an organism or a cell). For instance, estradiol is an endogenous estrogen hormone produced within the body, whereas ethinylestradiol is an exogenous synthetic estrogen, commonly used in birth control pills .

  6. Ligand (biochemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligand_(biochemistry)

    In contrast to the definition of ligand in metalorganic and inorganic chemistry, in biochemistry it is ambiguous whether the ligand generally binds at a metal site, as is the case in hemoglobin. In general, the interpretation of ligand is contextual with regards to what sort of binding has been observed.

  7. Molecular binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_binding

    Molecular binding is an attractive interaction between two molecules that results in a stable association in which the molecules are in close proximity to each other. It is formed when atoms or molecules bind together by sharing of electrons.

  8. Bioorthogonal chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioorthogonal_chemistry

    Copper-free click chemistry is a bioorthogonal reaction first developed by Carolyn Bertozzi as an activated variant of an azide alkyne Huisgen cycloaddition, based on the work by Karl Barry Sharpless et al. Unlike CuAAC, Cu-free click chemistry has been modified to be bioorthogonal by eliminating a cytotoxic copper catalyst, allowing reaction ...

  9. Endogenous agonist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endogenous_agonist

    In pharmacology, an endogenous agonist for a particular receptor is a compound naturally produced by the body which binds to and activates that receptor. For example, the primary endogenous agonist for serotonin receptors is serotonin , and the primary endogenous agonist for dopamine receptors is dopamine .
