Bone samples of a ptolemeic mummy have been employed to study the mode of conservation on the intactness of Zn2Mg alkaline phosphatase in both structure and catalytic activity. A protein of M(r) = 190 +/- 10 kDa being identical to the 200 kDa enzyme of fresh human bones was successfully isolated.
This is a report on two children with hypophosphatemic vitamin D-resistant rickets born to affected mothers diagnosed at the age of one and three months, respectively. The most important diagnostic criterium is the reduced value of the transport maximum of phosphorus in relation to glomerular
Neutrophil alkaline phosphatase studied cytochemically according to Kaplow's method in 20 healthy women aged 20 to 38 years, shows statistically significant, although transient, increase on the second day after physiological delivery and returns to initial values after several days. The above
Phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PtdIns(3)P] regulates endocytic trafficking and the sorting of receptors through early endosomes, including the rapid recycling of transferrin (Tfn). However, the phosphoinositide phosphatase that selectively opposes this function is unknown. The myotubularins are a
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate early adolescents with nutritional rickets and their responses to treatment.
METHODS
203 adolescents (aged 10 to 13 years) presenting with clinical features of lower-limb deformity, carpopedal spasm, joint swelling, a significant limp, or non-traumatic joint pain were screened
A radioimmunoassay procedure has been used to measure prostatic acid phosphatase in the serum of 46 patients with intracapsular carcinoma of the prostate. The results obtained did not differ significantly from those obtained in a control group of similar size. It is concluded that the
BACKGROUND
The SH2-containing-5'inositol phosphatase-1 (SHIP) influences signals downstream of cytokine/chemokine receptors that play a role in megakaryocytopoiesis, including thrombopoietin, stromal-cell-derived-Factor-1/CXCL-12 and interleukin-3. We hypothesize that SHIP might control
BACKGROUND
The phosphatase PTEN represents an important physiological inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3-K)/protein kinase B (Akt) signalling, however, the functional role of PTEN in the initial phase of angioplasty-induced vascular injury remains elusive. In the present study we sought
The urinary excretion of N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), beta-galactosidase (GAL), beta-glucosidase (GLU), and alkaline phosphatase (AP) was studied in 83 patients with renal allografts. Thirty of these patients had stable graft function and their urinary enzyme levels provided a range of
Excessive cytokine inflammatory response due to chronic or superphysiological level of microbial infection during pregnancy leads to pregnancy complications such as early pregnancy defects/loss and preterm birth. Bacterial toxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS), long recognized as a potent proinflammatory
Expression of the small intestinal alkaline phosphatase (IAP) is enterocyte differentiation dependent and plays essential roles in the detoxification of pathogenic bacterial lipopolysaccharide endotoxin, maintenance of luminal pH, organic phosphate digestion, and fat absorption. This study was
