Caveolin‐1 Stabilizes SERCA2 to Counteract Acute Kidney Injury via Suppression of Ca2+‐Dependent Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Distal Tubules

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In AKI, initial kidney injury upregulates the expression of Cav‐1, which subsequently binds to and stabilizes SERCA2 via its scaffolding domain and through deubiquitination, thereby regulating Ca2+ homeostasis and ER stress. Conversely, Cav‐1 deficiency accelerates SERCA2 degradation, triggering Ca2+ overload and ER stress, and ultimately exacerbating ...

Bone ultrasound transducer

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2012
Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is used on bone-healing. One expected healing mechanism of this technique is the contribution of piezoelectricity. Actually, the piezoelectricity in dry bone at low frequencies has been reported by many investigators.

Ultrasound Transducers

Journal of Diagnostic Medical Sonography, 2015
Diagnostic medical ultrasound transducers have evolved through the years and have contributed significantly to improved patient care. This article discusses the history and types of transducers and the elements that have changed over time. There has been a sharp transition from natural to human-made elements and from one to many in a single transducer.
