Phosphate in Physiological and Pathological Mineralization: Important yet Often Unheeded. [PDF]

MedComm (2020)
Phosphate serves as a building block for physiological mineralization, and as a signaling molecule that regulates the activity of mineralizing cells. The disturbance in these processes could induce a series of pathological mineralization, with abnormal mineralization of hard tissues and ectopic mineralization of soft tissues being the most ...

Low-calcium diets increase duodenal mRNA expression of calcium and phosphorus transporters and claudins but compromise growth performance irrespective of microbial phytase inclusion in broilers

Poultry Science, 2021
: The hypothesis that dietary inclusion of microbial phytase improves apparent calcium (Ca) digestibility thereby allowing a lower dietary Ca inclusion without compromising growth performance was tested.

Neuroarchitecture of the central complex in the Madeira cockroach Rhyparobia maderae: Pontine and columnar neuronal cell types

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 531, Issue 16, Page 1689-1714, November 2023., 2023
The central complex is an assemblage of highly interconnected neuropils spanning the midline of the insect brain. In the cockroach, five types of pontine neurons and 18 types of columnar neurons interconnect its subcompartments in a topographic manner and provide outputs to other areas of the brain. The data point to a key role of the cockroach central

Vitamin D3 enhanced intestinal phosphate cotransporter genes in young and growing broilers

Poultry Science, 2020
The influence of dietary vitamin D3 (VD3) levels on growth, bone performance, and duodenal type IIb sodium-dependent phosphate cotransporter (NaPi-IIb) genes in broiler chicken were studied. One-day-old male Ross308 broilers (n = 432) were allocated into

Effect of early dietary energy restriction and phosphorus level on subsequent growth performance, intestinal phosphate transport, and AMPK activity in young broilers. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
We aimed to determine the effect of low dietary energy on intestinal phosphate transport and the possible underlying mechanism to explain the long-term effects of early dietary energy restriction and non-phytate phosphorus (NPP).

The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2023/24: Transporters

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 180, Issue S2, Page S374-S469, October 2023., 2023
The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2023/24 is the sixth in this series of biennial publications. The Concise Guide provides concise overviews, mostly in tabular format, of the key properties of approximately 1800 drug targets, and over 6000 interactions with about 3900 ligands. There is an emphasis on selective pharmacology (where available), plus links

mTOR signaling in renal ion transport

Acta Physiologica, Volume 238, Issue 1, May 2023., 2023
Abstract The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway is crucial in maintaining cell growth and metabolism. The mTOR protein kinase constitutes the catalytic subunit of two multimeric protein complexes called mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) and mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2).

Sodium-dependent phosphate transporters in osteoclast differentiation and function. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Osteoclasts are multinucleated bone degrading cells. Phosphate is an important constituent of mineralized bone and released in significant quantities during bone resorption.

Myoinhibitory peptides in the central complex of the locust Schistocerca gregaria and colocalization with locustatachykinin‐related peptides

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 530, Issue 15, Page 2782-2801, October 2022., 2022
The central complex serves as an internal sky compass in the brain of the desert locust. An antiserum against myoinhibitory peptide (MIP) reveals immunolabeling of five distinct types of central‐complex neuron and provides new insights into the anatomical and neurochemical organization of the locust central complex.

Vitamin D: A Critical Regulator of Intestinal Physiology

JBMR Plus, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2021., 2021
ABSTRACT Calcium is required for the functioning of numerous biological processes and is essential for skeletal health. The major source of new calcium is from the diet. The central role of vitamin D in the maintenance of calcium homeostasis is to increase the absorption of ingested calcium from the intestine.
