Therefore, if thyrotoxicosis is clinically suspect, and T4 and FTI are normal, the test "T3 -RIA" is recommended (this is not the same test as "T3 uptake," which has nothing to do with the amount of T3 in the patient's serum). T4 is decreased in hypothyroidism and in euthyroid ...
Influence of chemical conditioning on the ion exchange capacity and on kinetic of zinc uptake by clinoptilolite. Water Res. 2005, 39, 1527–1532. [CrossRef] [PubMed] 31. Smith, E.H. Modeling batch kinetics of cadmium removal: By a recycled iron adsorbent. Sep. Sci. Technol. 1998, 33,...
Finally, surface water uptake of anthropogenic atmospheric CO2, and deposition of HNO3 and H2SO4 aerosols will decrease seawater pH [40]. The strong spatial and temporal variability in the surface water carbonate chemistry has led to contradicting estimates of air-sea CO2 fluxes in coastal seas. ...
On MRI the lesions exhibited a low signal on T1 and a high signal on T2- weighted images, with massive contrast medium uptake. Histologically, the tumors were composed of spindle cell proliferation (similar to a low-grade spindle cell sarcoma), associated wit epiphyseal growth-plate-like ...
This patient had had focal (<5%) tall cell features in the 1 iPTC LN, a suspicious initial thyroid ultrasound, and a 7 mm T3 147A primary tumor. Another had an indeterminate RAI whole body scan at 20 months and a 3rd had uptake in regional LNs on initial RAI whole body scan but ...
Background: Zip1 is an zinc uptake transporter involved in the extraction of zinc from circulation and its accumulation intracellularly. We have previously demonstrated that ZIP1 is decreased in prostate cancer. However, the role of hZIP1 in carcinomas of the other organs has not been ...
The copper metabolism (Murr1) domain containing 1 gene (COMMD1) is a regulator of copper homeostasis, sodium uptake, and NF-κB. COMMD1 functions as an inhibitor of NF-κB mediated gene expression, but its relative contribution to the control of inflammation has not been studied in vivo up...
Background: In neoplasia, enhanced expression of GLUT1 has been interpreted as increased glucose uptake as well as response to tissue hypoxia. The latter has been implicated in the pathogenesis of dedifferentiated phenotype in certain types of cancer. GLUT1 expression has also been reported to ...
