A theory of Plasma Membrane Calcium Pump stimulation and activity [PDF]
The ATP-driven Plasma Membrane Calcium pump or Ca(2+)-ATPase (PMCA) is characterized by a high affinity to calcium and a low transport rate compared to other transmembrane calcium transport proteins. It plays a crucial role for calcium extrusion from cells. Calmodulin is an intracellular calcium buffering protein which is capable in its Ca(2+) liganded

Preparation, physical-chemical characterisation and cytocompatibility of calcium carbonate cements [PDF]
The feasibility of calcium carbonate cements involving the recrystallisation of metastable calcium carbonate varieties has been demonstrated. Calcium carbonate cement compositions presented in this paper can be prepared straightforwardly by simply mixing

Regulation of store-operated calcium entry [PDF]
Plasma membrane calcium influx through ion channels is crucial for many events in cellular physiology. Cell surface stimuli lead to the production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), which binds to IP3 receptors in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to release calcium pools from the ER lumen.

Calcium, sodium, and the calcium paradox. [PDF]
The effect of "sodium loading," of verapamil and of nifedipine on the gain in calcium and sodium, and on the loss of myoglobin, during the calcium paradox in adult rat hearts was examined. Raising cell sodium from 56.5 +/- 2.6 to 129.5 +/- 10.2 mumol sodium/gram dry weight did not alter the degree or rate of calcium gain or myoglobin release during ...

Vitamin D3 and calcium to prevent hip fractures in elderly women.
BACKGROUND Hypovitaminosis D and a low calcium intake contribute to increased parathyroid function in elderly persons. Calcium and vitamin D supplements reduce this secondary hyperparathyroidism, but whether such supplements reduce the risk of hip ...

Calcium—Nutrient and Messenger
Calcium is an essential element needed for growth and development of plants under both non-stressed and stress conditions. It thereby fulfills a dual function, being not only an important factor for cell wall and membrane stability, but also serving as a

Study on Process Mineralogy of a High Iron Potassium Feldspar from Jilin Province
By means of X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron probe microanalysis and optical microscopy, the chemical composition and mineral intercalation and particle size composition of potassium feldspar in Jilin were studied. The results show that main

Pseudohypocalcemia caused by perchlorate (Irenat (R)) [PDF]
Background: Blood gas analysis (BGA), including measurement of ionized calcium, is performed routinely in patients with end stage renal disease on renal replacement therapy, especially when using citrate for regional anticoagulation.
