There is an elevated risk of falling in aging adults, which can lead to fractures and other injuries. The primary reason for this is lowered bone mineral density, which leads to brittle bones prone to breakage.(3) Potassium deficiency can be one of the reasons you have poor bone health. ...
Differential modulation of uncoupling protein 2 in kidneys of stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats under high-salt/low-potassium diet. The stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHRsp) represents an animal model of increased susceptibility to high-salt diet-induced cerebral and renal... SD...
Misunderstanding of these dynamics leads to mismanagement of soil fertility. This study was conducted to evaluate buffering characteristics of low exchangeable-K soils that showed different sugarcane (L.) responses to K amendment. Three silt loams, Crowley (fine, smectitic, hyperthermic Typic Albaqual...
As an essential macronutrient for plant growth and development, potassium (K+) nutrient status in soils has direct consequences on crop yield and quality1,2. Since soluble K+in most arable fields is low, crop production relies on extensive use of K+fertilizers3,4. However, heavy use of fert...
decreased theWOCto 0.326 V in a 1.53 eV perovskite system with aVOCof 1.21 V and a PCE of 23.78% (certified 23.09%). This approach is equally effective in achieving a lowWOC(ΔVOC,nr) in 1.56 eV and 1.73 eV perovskite solar cell systems, and further leads to the ...
but they may also have some undesirable off-flavors, such as metallic or bitter tastes. Potassium chloride may replace up to 30 percent of sodium chloride in some foods; anything over that level may become unpalatable. Bitter blockers that are used to reduce objectionable flavors in salt substit...
underestimated37until the series of elegant studies by Stickland et al.15,16,17. They have shown, in chronically instrumented dogs, that transient inhibition of carotid chemoreceptors during mild exercise leads to an abrupt vasodilation in the hindlimb, and this effect is abolished by α-...
It usually starts when you pass your middle 20s, slowly but surely finding it harder and harder to keep fit and trim,getting progressively worseas you age. Many of you really don't notice these symptoms until after childbirth… when it just hits you, seemingly out of nowhere. That “baby...
At the transcriptomic level, the presence of increased numbers of PDX1HIGH and MAFAHIGHβ-cells leads to dysregulation of gene pathways involved in metabolic processes. Using a chemogenetic disruption strategy, differences in PDX1 and MAFA expression are shown to depend on islet Ca2+ signaling ...
Synthesis of the products of cold-regulated genes leads to the final increase in freezing resistance. Because of the complexity of the changes required to achieve maximal cold hardiness, many genes may be involved in the overall process of cold acclimation. 展开 ...
