The Effect of Preeclampsia on Renal Function: Cross-Sectional Studies of Postpartum Preeclamptics and Women Who Were Destined to Develop Preeclampsia
… risk of renal dysfunction later in life. Mineral metabolism, such as phosphate balance is heavily dependent on renal function, yet, phosphate handling in women with a history of PE is largely unknown. To investigate whether women with a history of PE would exhibit changes in phosphate metabolism …

ΕΠΙΔΡΑΣΗ ΤΗΣ ΑΝΑΠΝΕΥΣΤΙΚΗΣ ΔΥΣΧΕΡΕΙΑΣ ΣΤΟ ΜΕΤΑΒΟΛΙΣΜΟ ΤΟΥ ΦΩΣΦΟΡΟΥ ΣΕ ΝΕΟΓΝΑ ΚΑΙ ΒΡΕΦΗ
… OF ANY TYPE OF RESPIRATORY DISTRESS (R.D) ON PHOSPHATE METABOLISM IN ERYTHROCYTES. THE STUDY INCLUDED 26 NEONATES WITH R.D AND 16 INFANTS WITH BRONCHIOLITIS. THREE BLOOD SAMPLES WERE TAKEN FROM EACH NEONATE AND INFANT. THE RESULTS SHOW THAT THE NEONATES WITH R.D HAD LOWER RI LEVELS BOTH INTRA …

Global characterization of the Pho regulon in Caulobacter crescentus
… in order to survive and proliferate. Adapting to phosphate-limited conditions is particularly critical, as phosphate is a central component of many important biomolecules. Most bacteria respond to phosphate limitation through a widely conserved pathway, composed of the phosphate transport Pst …

Genetics of serum urate regulation in human health and disease
… are involved in diverse processes including phosphate metabolism and bone development, glucose metabolism, adipocyte function and blood pressure regulation. I have additionally identified 15 lipids, some of which have a potential link with cognitive function. To approach the question of uric …

The Effect of Low Dose, Long Term Calcium Infusions on Bone Metabolism
… of the responses to different states of bone metabolism. In an attempt to establish the existence and extent of homeostatically regulated bone resorption, human subjects were studied by means of a low dose, long term, intravenous calcium infusion delivered by a constant infusion pump. The rate …

Transcriptomics-based study reveals a novel link between arginine methylation and phosphate regulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
… exponential growth, we found dysregulation of phosphate metabolism and polyphosphate accumulation in the Hmt1-null strain. Acid phosphatases (PH05, PH011 and PH012), phosphate transporters (PH084 and PH089) and the vacuolar transporter chaperone VTCJ were amongst genes significantly …

The role of Ca²⁺ and cAMP in GnRH-stimulated LH release
… intracellular Ca²⁺ mobilization, or (3) inositol phosphate metabolism. However, forskolin was able to synergistically interact with secretagogues that increase the cytosolic Ca²⁺ concentration and activators of protein kinase C. This suggested that forskolin was interacting with GnRH at a site …

The impact of vascular calcification among dialysis dependent South African CKD patients. A five year follow up study. Cardiovascular mortality and morbidity, ethnic variation and hemodynamic correlates
… possible ethnic differences in calcium phosphate metabolism in patients with ESRD. The lack of vascular calcification progression in Blacks was not however associated with improved survival, but the sample size was small.

Host/virus interactions in the marine cyanobacterium prochlorococcus
… processes, including photosynthesis, carbon and phosphate metabolism, and nucleotide synthesis. They are thought to benefit phage during infection by redirecting host metabolism towards pathways that promote viral replication. While AMGs are widespread in two Prochlorococcus cyanophage families, …

Metabolic pathways of Campylobacter fetus
The energy metabolism of three strains of Camplyobacter fetus (i.e., C. fetus ss. fetus 482, C. fetus ss. intestinalis PB1, and C. fetus ss. jejuni H840) was investigated. A biphasic culture technique was employed to grow the culture, and from which crude cellular extracts were prepared. The growth …

Characterization of AgaR and YihW, Members of the DeoR Family of Transcriptional Regulators, and GlpE, a Rhodanese Belonging to the GlpR Regulon, Also a Member of the DeoR Family
… <i>Escherichia coli</i> thought to control the metabolism of N-acetylgalactosamine, is a member of the DeoR family of transcriptional regulators. Three transcriptional promoters within a cluster of genes containing the gene for AgaR were identified, specific for <i>agaR, agaZ</i> and …

Metabolomic and metabolomic flux studies of the effects of sphingosine kinase inhibitors on prostate cancer cells using high-resolution mass spectrometry as an analytical technique
… formation of the bioactive lipid, sphingosine 1-phosphate(S1P), in various diseases including cancer. Over the last few years, metabolomics has become an increasingly critical part in many fields of research. Therefore, metabolomic and lipidomic analysis was performed to investigate the effect of …

Localisation and function of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C in Sacchromyces cerevisiae
… to generate two messengers, inositol (1,4,5) trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P\(_3\)] and diacylglycerol (DAG). Ins(1,4,5)P\(_3\) is an important second messenger in animal cells. It releases calcium from intracellular stores by opening Ins(1,4,5)P\(_3\) receptors (InsP\(_3\)Rs) and is formed in response …
