Prediction of stent under-expansion in calcified coronary arteries using machine-learning on intravascular optical coherence tomography [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
BACKGROUND Careful evaluation of the risk of stent under-expansions before the intervention will aid treatment planning, including the application of a pre-stent plaque modification strategy. OBJECTIVES It remains challenging to achieve a proper stent expansion in the presence of severely calcified coronary lesions.

Can the pattern of foraminiferal intratest trace element variations be explained by Ca dilution during biomineralization? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Recently Hathorne et al. (2009) documented large intratest trace element (TE) variations in planktonic foraminifera from a single sediment trap sample that could not be explained by variations in water column properties.

Metastatic calcification

open access: yesDermatology Online Journal, 2003
Calciphylaxis is a rare, painful, and debilitating disease of widespread metastatic calcification that progresses to ischemic tissue necrosis. It occurs almost exclusively in patients with end-stage renal disease and secondary hyperparathyroidism. Reticulated, violaceous, mottled patches commonly appear on the lower extremities and progress to cordlike

BMP antagonist CHRDL2 enhances the cancer stem‐cell phenotype and increases chemotherapy resistance in colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Overexpression of CHRDL2 in colon cancer cells makes them more stem‐like and resistant to chemo‐ and radiotherapy. CHRDL2‐high cells have upregulation of the WNT pathway, genes involved in the DNA damage response (DDR) pathway and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT). This leads to quicker repair of damaged DNA and more cell migration.

High Calcification Costs Limit Mussel Growth at Low Salinity

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2018
In coastal temperate regions such as the Baltic Sea, calcifying bivalves dominate benthic communities playing a vital ecological role in maintaining biodiversity and nutrient recycling. At low salinities, bivalves exhibit reduced growth and calcification

Piezo1 channels enhance anabolic signaling activation induced by electrical stimulation of cultured myotubes

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
By using an electrical pulse stimulation (EPS)‐based in vitro exercise model and chemical activation/inhibition of mechanosensitive Piezo1 channels, we explored changes in protein synthetic response in cultured C2C12 myotubes. Our data showed that application of Piezo1 activator (Yoda1) during EPS significantly enhances the rate of protein synthesis in

Multifocal cardiovascular calcification in patients with established cardiovascular disease; prevalence, risk factors, and relation with recurrent cardiovascular disease

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2020
Aims: The aim is to investigate (multifocal) cardiovascular calcification in patients with established cardiovascular disease (CVD), regarding prevalence, risk factors, and relation with recurrent CVD or vascular interventions.

Relationship between serum expressions of miR-129 and miR-205 and vascular calcification in patients with chronic kidney disease without dialysis

open access: yesLinchuang shenzangbing zazhi, 2022
ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between serum levels of miR-129 and miR-205 and vascular calcification in non-dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).MethodsFrom June 2020 to January 2021,54 CKD inpatients were selected as research ...

An enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)‐based activity assay for AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK)

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Measuring AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity in vitro is crucial for testing AMPK activators or inhibitors with therapeutic potential. Here, we report an enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)‐based AMPK activity assay with simple steps and high sensitivity, which offers a simple, robust, and cost‐effective alternative to traditional ...
