A novel transgenic reporter of extracellular acidification in zebrafish elucidates skeletal muscle T‐tubule pH regulation

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Disruption of extracellular pH and proton‐sensing can profoundly impact cellular and protein functions, leading to developmental defects. To visualize changes in extracellular pH in the developing embryo, we generated a zebrafish transgenic line that ubiquitously expresses the ratiometric pH‐sensitive fluorescent protein pHluorin2, tethered to

Phosphaturia in Thalassemia

Pediatrics, 1976
Thirteen phosphorus balances were performed in four thalassemic children aged 6 to 10 years. No correlation was found between phosphorus intake and serum level or between phosphorus intake and net absorption. There was a positive correlation among daily phosphorus intake, net absorption, and 24-hour urinary excretion.

Management of the Thalassemias [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2013
During the last 30 years, in addition to the considerable progress made in control and prevention of thalassemias(3), there have also been major advances in their symptomatic management, at least in wealthier countries where appropriate facilities are available.
