Phosphate regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell calcification.
Vascular calcification is a common finding in atherosclerosis and a serious problem in diabetic and uremic patients. Because of the correlation of hyperphosphatemia and vascular calcification, the ability of extracellular inorganic phosphate levels to ...

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

On the Mechanisms of Calcification.
SummarySpecimens of skin, tendon, and cortical bone from the calf were exhaustively demineralized with EDTA at pH 7.4. These tissues were then equilibrated with solutions of varying calcium and phosphorus content. All 3 tissues, presumably because of their collagen content, were able to induce formation of hydroxy apatite crystals from otherwise stable

Raphin‐1 reduces the survival of PED‐DHGG cells and enhances their radiation sensitivity through both PeIF2α‐dependent and PeIF2α‐independent mechanisms. Raphin‐1 sustains elevated levels of PeIF2α, contributing to its PeIF2α‐dependent effects. Additionally, raphin‐1 interacts with CReP to mediate a separate radiosensitizing pathway that operates ...

Calcification depth of deep-dwelling planktonic foraminifera from the eastern North Atlantic constrained by stable oxygen isotope ratios of shells from stratified plankton tows [PDF]
Stable oxygen isotopes (delta O-18) of planktonic foraminifera are one of the most used tools to reconstruct environmental conditions of the water column. Since different species live and calcify at different depths in the water column, the delta O-18 of

Is Matrix Gla Protein Associated with Vascular Calcification? A Systematic Review
Specific patient cohorts are at increased risk of vascular calcification. Functional matrix-gla protein (MGP), a tissue-derived vitamin K dependent protein, is reported to be an important inhibitor of vascular calcification and may have clinical ...

The tumor microenvironment is a dynamic, multifaceted complex system of interdependent cellular, biochemical, and biophysical components. Three‐dimensional in vitro models of the tumor microenvironment enable a better understanding of these interactions and their impact on cancer progression and therapeutic resistance.
