Preparation, physical-chemical characterisation and cytocompatibility of calcium carbonate cements [PDF]

, 2006
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

Iron‐Mediated Release of Aged Dissolved Organic Carbon From Waterlogged Peatland Under Warming

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study conducts a five‐year in situ warming experiment in high‐altitude peatlands to examine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) release. The study shows that warming promotes the release of plant‐derived modern DOC in drained peatlands, but amplifies aquatic export of century‐old DOC from waterlogged peatlands via Fe‐mediated DOC mobilization—a ...

Flexoelectricity in Photoconversion: Fundamentals, Materials, and Outlooks

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical bending of a flexible cantilever induces a strain gradient in the photoactive material. The resulting flexoelectric field couples with photovoltaic and photoconductive effects, modulating charge generation, separation, and collection. A comparative analysis of oxide perovskites, halide perovskites, and two‐dimensional materials is presented,

Ultrasound‐Activatable Piezoelectric Hydrogel Reprograms Mitochondrial Epigenetics for Osteoarthritis Therapy via the mTOR/GATD3A Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An ultrasound‐activatable piezoelectric hydrogel reprograms chondrocyte mitochondrial epigenetics via the mTOR/GATD3A axis, clearing damaged mitochondria and alleviating osteoarthritis progression in both mouse models and human cartilage explants. ABSTRACT The avascular nature of cartilage hinders drug delivery for osteoarthritis (OA) therapy.

CXCL10/SLC11A1 Axis Exacerbates Septic Liver Injury by Regulating Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Formation to Drive Macrophage Pro‑Inflammatory Polarization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In sepsis‐induced liver injury, marked neutrophil infiltration correlates with disease severity. Neutrophil SLC11A1 drives intracellular Fe2+ and ROS via the Fenton reaction, promoting NETs formation. Hepatocyte‐derived CXCL10 recruits neutrophils and activates the JAK/STAT1/SLC11A1 axis, enhancing NETs‐mediated inflammation.

Ca2+ mediates extracellular vesicle biogenesis through alternate pathways in malignancy

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2020
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small membrane vesicles that serve as important intercellular signalling intermediaries in both malignant and non-malignant cells. For EVs formed by the plasma membrane, their biogenesis is characterized by an increase in

CLCA2 is a positive regulator of store-operated calcium entry and TMEM16A. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
The Chloride Channel Accessory (CLCA) protein family was first characterized as regulators of calcium-activated chloride channel (CaCC) currents (ICaCC), but the mechanism has not been fully established. We hypothesized that CLCAs might regulate ICaCC by

Calcium Ion as a Second Messenger With Special Reference to Excitation-Contraction Coupling

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006
.: Calcium ion (Ca2+) plays an important role in stimulus-response reactions of cells as a second messenger. This is done by keeping cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration low at rest and by mobilizing Ca2+ in response to stimulus, which in turn activates the ...

Label‐Free Myelin Fingerprinting: An Adult Human Post‐Mortem Brain Slice Platform via Coherent Anti‐Stokes Raman Spectroscopy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A serum‐free, air–liquid interface organotypic slice culture model preserves human post‐mortem corpus callosum tissue, successfully recovering from slicing trauma to reflect the donor's underlying disease state. Pairing label‐free Coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy with k‐means clustering enables objective, high‐resolution ...

Cyclic ADP Ribose as a Calcium-Mobilizing Messenger

Science's STKE, 2000
This Perspective by Galione and Churchill is one in a series on intracellular calcium release mechanisms. The authors review the evidence for cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose (cADPR) being a second messenger involved in regulating intracellular calcium. In addition, the physiological stimuli and responses mediated by cADPR are discussed.
