Mechanisms of ectopic calcification: implications for diabetic vasculopathy. [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovasc Diagn Ther, 2015
Vascular calcification (VC) is the deposition of calcium/phosphate in the vasculature, which portends a worse clinical outcome and predicts major adverse cardiovascular events. VC is an active process initiated and regulated via a variety of molecular signalling pathways. There are mainly two types of calcifications: the media VC and the intima VC. All

Cutaneous ectopic breast calcification in a haemodialysis patient

open access: yesThe Breast, 2003
This case report details the unique breast calcification and swellings of a 61-year-old lady. The ectopic breast calcification was a result of chronic renal failure and hyperparathyroidism secondary to vesiculo-ureteric reflux nephropathy. Subcutaneous nodules were also noted around her ileostomy (from surgery due to Crohn's disease) and abdominal wall.

Tubocapsenolide A Overcomes Oxaliplatin Resistance in Colorectal Cancer by Targeting PLK1 to Impair CEP55–ESCRT‐Associated Vesicular Damage Clearance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Oxaliplatin‐resistant colorectal cancer cells utilize a previously unappreciated PLK1‐CEP55‐ESCRT‐driven vesicular extrusion mechanism to clear L‐OHP‐induced cellular damage. The natural withanolide Tubocapsenolide A directly targets and inhibits PLK1 to disrupt this specific damage‐clearance machinery. This blockade induces severe nucleolar stress and

A Prevalence Study on Ectopic Calcification in Digital Panoramic Radiographs in Shahid Sadoughi Dental School of Yazd in 2012-2013

open access: yesMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ’Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Shahīd Ṣadūqī Yazd, 2013
Introduction: soft tissue calcification is a relatively common issue in panoramic radiography. These opacities include calcification of lymph nodes, tonsilolith, sialolith, calcification of stylohyoid complex and carotid artery bifurcation.

Human Engineered Heart Tissues Reproduce Trigger‐ and Substrate‐Driven Mechanisms of Ventricular Tachycardia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Engineered heart tissues (EHTs) derived from human iPSCs replicate mechanisms of ventricular tachycardia at the tissue level. Acquired Long‐QT conditions cause early afterdepolarizations, wavebreak, and transient rotors; in contrast, focal cryoinjury forms a stable substrate that supports ongoing reentry.
