We present two cases of pulmonary aspergillosis in which calcium oxalate crystals in the sputum proved to be a useful diagnostic clue. In case 1, Aspergillus hyphae was not identified; however, calcium oxalate crystals were present, and chronic ...

Cementum Attachment Protein-Derived Peptides Modulate Brushite and Calcium Oxalate Crystallization In Vitro. [PDF]
Cementum attachment protein‐derived peptides adsorb to specific crystallographic faces of brushite and calcium oxalate, blocking calcium deposition. This phosphorylation‐enhanced modulation alters crystal growth under conditions in vitro, leading to the formation of irregular brushite crystals and rosette‐like calcium oxalate morphologies.

Inhibitors of Calcium Oxalate Crystallization for the Treatment of Oxalate Nephropathies [PDF]
AbstractCalcium oxalate (CaOx) crystal‐induced nephropathies comprise a range of kidney disorders, for which there are no efficient pharmacological treatments. Although CaOx crystallization inhibitors have been suggested as a therapeutic modality already decades ago, limited progress has been made in the discovery of potent molecules with efficacy in ...

Nephrolithiasis is a common and recurrent disease affecting 9% of the US population. Hyperoxaluria is major risk factor for calcium oxalate kidney stones, which constitute two-thirds of all kidney stones.

Pulmonary aspergilloma with prominent oxalate deposition
Some Aspergillus species produce oxalic acid, which reacts with tissue calcium or blood to precipitate calcium oxalate. Oxalate crystals can induce lung and kidney damage.

Randall’s plaque as the origin of idiopathic calcium oxalate stone formation: an update
The majority of idiopathic calcium oxalate kidney stones form on the Randall’s plaque, a subepithelial calcium phosphate plaque at the renal papilla.

Abstract Studies in 24 recurrent oxalate stone-formers have shown that values for urinary calcium excretion for this group on at-home diets vary significantly (P less than 0.001) more than values for creatinine excretions. By placing stone-formers on controlled in-hospital diets and measuring their calcium excretions, we were able to ...

The polysaccharides extracted from Aspidopterys obcordata are thought to have anti-urolithiasis activity in Drosophila kidney stones. This study aimed to assess the effects of different extraction solvents on the yield, chemical composition, and ...

HISTOCHEMICAL RECOGNITION OF CALCIUM OXALATE [PDF]
Of the workers applying the von Kóssa test to calcium oxalate crystals in animal tissue, about half reported blackening in silver nitrate on exposure to light. We found that "pure" calcium oxalate crystals, produced in rats by the administration of ammonium oxalate or ethylene glycol, gave a negative von Kóssa reaction.

Loss of Ecrg4 improves calcium oxalate nephropathy.
Kidney stone is one of the most frequent urinary tract diseases, affecting 10% of the population and displaying a high recurrence rate. Kidney stones are the result of salt supersaturation, including calcium and oxalate.
