Calcium Signaling
Signal transduction mechanisms whereby calcium mobilization (from outside the cell or from intracellular storage pools) to the cytoplasm is triggered by external stimuli. Calcium signals are often seen to propagate as waves, oscillations, spikes, sparks, or puffs. The calcium acts as an intracellular messenger by activating calcium-responsive proteins.

Radiation Monitoring
The observation, either continuously or at intervals, of the levels of radiation in a given area, generally for the purpose of assuring that they have not exceeded prescribed amounts or, in case of radiation already present in the area, assuring that the levels have returned to those meeting acceptable safety standards.
Radiation Dosage
The amount of radiation energy that is deposited in a unit mass of material, such as tissues of plants or animal. In RADIOTHERAPY, radiation dosage is expressed in gray units (Gy). In RADIOLOGIC HEALTH, the dosage is expressed by the product of absorbed dose (Gy) and quality factor (a function of linear energy transfer), and is called radiation dose equivalent in sievert units (Sv).

Effects of high compared with low calcium intake on calcium absorption and incorporation of iron by red blood cells in small children. (1/181)
BACKGROUND: The potential benefits of increasing calcium intake in small children must be balanced with the potential risk to iron utilization from high calcium intakes. OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to evaluate the relation between calcium intake and calcium absorption and iron incorporation into red blood cells. DESIGN: We performed a multitracer, crossover study of the absorption of calcium and red blood cell incorporation of iron in 11 preschool children aged 3-5 y who had been adapted for 5 wk to low- (502 +/- 99 mg) and high- (1180 +/- 117 mg) calcium diets. Stable-isotope studies were performed by using 44Ca and 58Fe given orally with meals and 46Ca given intravenously. RESULTS: Iron incorporation into red blood cells 14 d postdosing was similar (6.9 +/- 4.2% compared with 7.9 +/- 5.5%; NS) with the low- and high-calcium diets, respectively. Total calcium absorption (181 +/- 50 compared with 277 +/- 91 mg/d; P = 0.002) was greater in children with the higher calcium intake. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicate that small children may benefit from calcium intakes similar to those recommended for older children without adverse effects on dietary iron utilization. (+info)Characterization of prostanoid receptors in podocytes. (2/181)
Prostaglandins participate in the regulation of important glomerular functions and are involved in the pathogenesis of glomerular diseases. This study investigates the influence of prostaglandins on membrane voltage, ion conductances, cAMP accumulation, and cytosolic calcium activity ([Ca2+]i) in differentiated podocytes. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) caused a concentration-dependent depolarization and an increase of the whole cell conductance in podocytes (EC50 approximately 50 nM). Compared with PGE2, the EP2/EP3/EP4 receptor agonist 11-deoxy-PGE1 caused an equipotent depolarization, whereas the DP receptor agonist BW 245 C, the EP1/EP3 receptor agonist sulprostone, and the IP receptor agonist iloprost were at least 100 to 1000 times less potent than PGE2. The EP2 receptor agonist butaprost did not change membrane voltage of podocytes. The depolarizing effect of PGE2 was increased in an extracellular solution with a reduced Cl- concentration (from 145 to 32 mM). PGE2 and the prostaglandin agonists, but not the IP receptor agonist iloprost and the EP2 receptor agonist butaprost, induced a time- and concentration-dependent cAMP accumulation in podocytes. In fura-2 fluorescence experiments, PGE2, sulprostone, PGF2alpha, fluprostenol (a potent FP agonist), and U-46619 (a selective thromboxane A2 agonist) induced a biphasic increase of [Ca2+]i in 60 to 80% of podocytes. In reverse transcription-PCR studies, podocyte mRNA for the EP1, EP4, FP, and TP receptor could be amplified. These data indicate that in podocytes, PGE2 regulates distinct cellular functions via the EP1 and EP4 receptor, thereby increasing [Ca2+]i and cAMP, respectively. Furthermore, PGF1alpha and U-46619 increase [Ca2+]i via their specific receptors. (+info)Calcium isotope fractionation between soft and mineralized tissues as a monitor of calcium use in vertebrates. (3/181)
Calcium from bone and shell is isotopically lighter than calcium of soft tissue from the same organism and isotopically lighter than source (dietary) calcium. When measured as the (44)Ca/(40)Ca isotopic ratio, the total range of variation observed is 5.5 per thousand, and as much as 4 per thousand variation is found in a single organism. The observed intraorganismal calcium isotopic variations and the isotopic differences between tissues and diet indicate that isotopic fractionation occurs mainly as a result of mineralization. Soft tissue calcium becomes heavier or lighter than source calcium during periods when there is net gain or loss of mineral mass, respectively. These results suggest that variations of natural calcium isotope ratios in tissues may be useful for assessing the calcium and mineral balance of organisms without introducing isotopic tracers. (+info)Isotopic evidence for variations in the marine calcium cycle over the Cenozoic. (4/181)
Significant variations in the isotopic composition of marine calcium have occurred over the last 80 million years. These variations reflect deviations in the balance between inputs of calcium to the ocean from weathering and outputs due to carbonate sedimentation, processes that are important in controlling the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and, hence, global climate. The calcium isotopic ratio of paleo-seawater is an indicator of past changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide when coupled with determinations of paleo-pH. (+info)High bioavailability of calcium in fortified Horlicks. (5/181)
OBJECTIVE: To compare the bioavailability of calcium carbonate-fortified Horlicks with calcium naturally present in milk. DESIGN: Randomised crossover within-subject comparison using a double label stable isotope technique. SETTING: Institute of Food Research, Human Nutrition Unit. PARTICIPANTS: Sixteen pre-menopausal women aged 23-40 y, habituated to a high-calcium diet (mean 1240 mg/day). RESULTS: Mean true fractional calcium absorption was 38.8% (s.d.+/-14.5) from Horlicks and 21.2% (s.d.+/-4.6) from milk. Significantly more calcium was absorbed from a serving of Horlicks than from the same quantity of calcium present in 420 g semi-skimmed milk (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Fortified Horlicks is a highly bioavailable source of calcium. A single serving, containing at least 500 mg calcium, provides half the reference nutrient intake for the population sub-group with the highest requirement (adolescent boys) and more than half for all others. SPONSORSHIP: SmithKline Beecham funded this research project. (+info)Calcium absorption measured by stable calcium isotopes ((42)Ca & (44)Ca) among Northern Chinese adolescents with low vitamin D status. (6/181)
An adequate calcium intake and vitamin-D status is important for bone mineralization in adolescents. In Northern China, calcium intake and plasma vitamin-D level of adolescents is low due to low consumption of dairy foods and inadequate sunshine exposure. True fractional calcium absorption (TFCA) in Chinese adolescents has never been performed. This study aims to evaluate nutritional adaptation namely, TFCA and urinary calcium excretion among Chinese adolescents in northern China. (+info)Overview of the 7th European symposium on calcium-binding proteins in normal and transformed cells. (7/181)
The strong feature of the meeting was the continuing efforts described in many papers to resolve the multiple ways in which calcium ions are released into cells via messenger signals and then interact with receptors to cause differential internal cellular activation and cell/cell communication. An easy general way to relate these studies to cell components is to start analysis from the genetic structures lying behind all cell activities and then to explore the RNA production, the proteome, the small substrates and calcium levels themselves in turn while referring to the environment of a particular cell, organ or organism. There is then of course the overall physiology. I shall summarize the papers in this order of their main interests. (+info)A novel dual radio- and stable-isotope method for measuring calcium absorption in humans: comparison with the whole-body radioisotope retention method. (8/181)
BACKGROUND: Dietary calcium absorption can be determined only with the use of isotope techniques. Currently used isotope techniques require exclusive equipment or are not true tracer approaches. OBJECTIVE: The objective was to compare a dual-isotope method combining radioisotopes and stable isotopes with a whole-body radioisotope retention method for measuring calcium absorption. DESIGN: Seven healthy adults aged 21-27 y consumed a test meal containing 63 +/- 14 (macro x +/- SD) mg Ca together with a water solution of (47)Ca (0.11 MBq). One hour after ingestion, 18 mg (44)Ca was administered intravenously. All feces and urine were collected for 5 and 6 d, respectively. Calcium absorption was estimated from whole-body retention of the radioisotope 12 times over 3 wk after ingestion and from the excretion of (47)Ca and (44)Ca in a 24-h urine sample collected on day 2. (44)Ca in urine was determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. RESULTS: Mean (+/- SD) calcium absorption was 75 +/- 9% with the dual-isotope method and was 74 +/- 8% with the whole-body radioisotope retention method. There was a high degree of agreement between the methods. CONCLUSION: The dual-isotope method is a valid approach for measuring calcium absorption from a single meal. (+info)

- Calcium oxide (lime), produced by heating limestone, has many applications including the chemical, agricultural, construction and water industries. (goodfellow.com)
Atom2
- The calcium atom has a radius of 197 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 231 pm. (americanelements.com)
- A calcium atom has twenty electrons, arranged in the electron configuration [Ar]4s 2 . (wikipedia.org)
Emit2
- A very standard example is in medicine where you have certain isotopes that emit an anti electron called a positron, and where the decay that takes place can be localized by something called positron emission tomography, or PET. (nsf.gov)
- they exist as nearly 270 stable isotopes-that is, forms of the elements that do not decay or emit radiation-and hundreds of radioactive isotopes. (nap.edu)
Intestinal calcium absorption4
- Does Omeprazole Decrease Intestinal Calcium Absorption? (clinicaltrials.gov)
- Existing literature makes it unclear whether proton pump inhibitor therapy truly decreases intestinal calcium absorption. (clinicaltrials.gov)
- The primary study outcome is the change in intestinal calcium absorption following omeprazole therapy 40 mg daily for 30 days. (clinicaltrials.gov)
- Can serum isotope levels accurately measure intestinal calcium absorption compared to gold-standard methods? (biomedcentral.com)
Periodic table2
- As a member of the series of alkaline earth metals, calcium lies in group 2 (former group 2A) of the periodic table , between magnesium and strontium . (newworldencyclopedia.org)
- Calcium (Ca) , chemical element , one of the alkaline-earth metals of Group 2 (IIa) of the periodic table . (britannica.com)
42Ca1
- Those patients who tended to lose the lighter 42Ca isotope seemed to be the ones where the cancer was the most active. (medicalxpress.com)
Cosmogenic5
- Calcium also has a cosmogenic isotope, radioactive 41Ca, which has a half-life of 99,400 years. (wikipedia.org)
- Unlike cosmogenic isotopes that are produced in the atmosphere, 41Ca is produced by neutron activation of 40Ca. (wikipedia.org)
- It is described as a "cosmogenic" isotope, which means that it is produced by the action of high-energy cosmic rays on the nuclei of target atoms. (newworldencyclopedia.org)
- Calcium also has a cosmogenic isotope , radioactive 41 Ca, which has a half-life of 102,000 years. (wn.com)
- Unlike cosmogenic isotopes that are produced in the atmosphere , 41 Ca is produced by neutron activation of 40 Ca. Most of its production is in the upper metre or so of the soil column, where the cosmogenic neutron flux is still sufficiently strong. (wn.com)
Tracer3
- Women will present to the research unit in the early morning and receive an oral and intravenous calcium tracer with breakfast. (clinicaltrials.gov)
- Peak plasma tracer levels can be influenced by intestinal calcium excretion and transit time, renal calcium recycling and volume of calcium distribution. (biomedcentral.com)
- 12 ] assessed spot serum isotope levels at multiple time points within 24 h of tracer administration and concluded, by Bland-Altman analysis, that spot serum levels were inaccurate and introduced up to 69 % error in estimates of FCA. (biomedcentral.com)
Fluoride2
- As calcium fluoride, it occurs as fluorite , or fluorspar. (britannica.com)
- The metal can be prepared by the reduction of the anhydrous fluoride with metallic calcium . (lanl.gov)
