The acidic tumor microenvironment, a hallmark of many solid tumors, is primarily induced by the high glycolytic rate of tumor cells. To avoid acidosis, tumor cells ingeniously maintain an acidic extracellular pH while keeping a relatively alkaline intracellular pH. Overturning the unique pH gradient o...
Basel Peripheral tissue oxygen utilization was studied during hypoxic-induced acidosis and sodium bicarbonate-induced alkalosis in 8 domestic pigs by measurements of subcutaneous oxygen tension (PscOP), carbon dioxide tension (PscCO2) and pH (pH(sc)) in relation to central hemodynamic parameters and...
Temporary acidosis during reperfusion limits myocardial infarct size in dogs. Am J Physiol. 1997;272(5 Pt 2):H2071-8. 5. Javaheri S, Shore NS, Rose B, Kazemi H. Compensatory hypoventilation in metabolic alkalosis. Chest. 1982;81...
The best way to treat acidosis or alkalosis is to manage the underlying cause of the conditions, according to the NLM. You can alsoremove acidityorraise pH levels in the bodyby following analkaline diet. How to Tell if Your Body Is Alkaline or Acidic Here's how to know if you have mor...
The effects ofrespiratory alkalosisand acidosis in dogs have been studied (Leusen, 1954,1965;Leusen and Demeester, 1960). There was a shift of blood and CSF pH in the same direction without an appreciable alteration in the concentration of HCO3−in the fluids.Bureau and Bouverot (1975)subjec...
State True or False. Decreased blood pH would cause you to breathe deeper and at a faster rate. (a) What is the effect of acidosis on the body? (b) What is the effect of alkalosis on the body? Which organ is responsible for balancing the amount ...
When your body's pH becomes too high or low, your lungs and kidneys usually help you re-balance your pH. However, if your body can't properly regulate its pH, you can face health issues related to acidosis and alkalosis. Acidosis means your body has too much acid and a pH less than...
(Chemistry) potential of hydrogen; a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution equal to the common logarithm of the reciprocal of the concentration of hydrogen ions in moles per cubic decimetre of solution. Pure water has a pH of 7, acid solutions have a pH less than 7, and alk...
Reversible electronically triggered acidosis (low pH) and alkalosis (high pH) in physiologically relevant buffer conditions are achieved. As a proof of principle, this new platform is used to control the degradation and fluorescence of acid sensitive polymeric microparticles loaded with a pH sensitive ...
pH is a measurement of our acid-alkaline balance. The kidneys play an important role in maintaining the acid-alkaline balance of the body. Therefore, any condition that produces acids or bases in the body such as acidosis or alkalosis, or the ingestion of acidic or basic foods, can direc...
