Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) sets to form hydroxyapatite, a major component of mineral bone, and is gaining increasing interest in bone repair applications. However, concerns regarding its brittleness and tendency to fragment have limited its widespread use. In the present study, short-fibre ...
Calcium increased the intensity of the interaction between AmphiCTL1 and those components, but was not essential. This lectin directly killed S. aureus and S. cerevisiae in a Ca2+-independent fashion, and its binding to microorganism cell wall polysaccharides such as peptidoglycan and glucan ...
One of the questions surrounding the controversy over the risks of MI among hypertensives taking calcium channel blockers (CCBs) is the dosage form, and whether the short-acting form may be more likely than the long-acting to increase the risk of MI. This preliminary study compared HMO members...
Based on the success of Response's first year of tracking a segment of short-form DRTV media billings, continued interest and participation from this sector of the industry has prompted us to offer this research for a second year. Short-form DRTV media billings tracked by the magazine in firs...
This type of short-limbed dwarfism is characterized by bowing of the legs, short stature and waddling gait in the absence of abnormalities of serum levels of calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase or vitamin D metabolites. From:Pediatric Nephrology and Urology,2004 ...
of calcium carbonate becomes less energetically favorable, although a wide range of responses for haptophytes has previously been observed and some species are not calcifying10,69,70. Three additional differentially abundant 18S ASVs were metazoan sequences including a hydrozoan and a copepod, which ...
C1r is a Ca(2+)-binding serine protease that interacts with two other plasma proteins, C1q and C1s, to form C1, the first component of the complement cascade. A monoclonal antibody, BG6, has been produced which binds to C1r only in the presence of Ca2+, requiring 3-5 microM Ca2+ for...

Learning of adaptive behaviors requires the refinement of coordinated activity across multiple brain regions. However, how neural communications develop during learning remains poorly understood. Here, using two-photon calcium imaging, we simultaneously recorded the activity of layer 2/3 excitatory neurons ...
16 S rRNA gene sequencing and targeted metabolomics analyses showed that ABX and vancomycin treatments resulted in decreased abundance of Bacteroidetes in the fecal microbiota of the mice and decreased serum levels of SCFAs. In addition, supplementation with acetate was found to reduce calcium salt ...
