Disease relevance of praseodymium

  • (3) Severe hepatotoxicity was observed after administration of Ce and Pr; fatty liver, jaundice, and elevated serum GOT and GPT levels were most prominent on Day 3 [1].
 

High impact information on praseodymium

  • Pr3+ is shown to be a good analog for calcium binding to the high affinity sites on the enzyme since it competitively displaces calcium, as evidenced by the reversal of the specific calcium-dependent intrinsic fluorescent signal and inactivation of ATPase activity, over the same narrow range in Pr3+ concentration where energy transfer is observed [2].
  • Praseodymium ion (Pr3+) produces the same protective effect in liver tissue cultures [3].
