Carbonic anhydrase-9 (CA9), a transmembrane enzyme with an extracellular active site, is involved in the reversible metabolism of the carbon dioxide to carbonic acid. Up-regulation of CA by hypoxia and the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway has been recently postulated (Wykoff et al. Cancer
IT WILL BE SEEN FROM THE ABOVE THAT WE HAVE STUDIED THE CONDITIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEPOSIT OF CALCAREOUS SALTS: (I) in connection with normal and pathological ossification, and (2) in pathological calcification as exhibited in (a) atheroma of the vessels; (b) calcification of caseating
Lye ingestion, a poisoning with no known effective treatment, frequently results in esophageal ulceration and healing by stricture formation. Tissue injury by lye is due to its alkalinity, and so therapy is logically directed at neutralization by acid. Here we describe a novel method, the inhalation
The mechanism of myocardial revascularization was studied in 30 dogs with the aid of impulse carbonic acid laser after ligation of the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery. In the control group, 4 dogs died of myocardial infarction. In 26 animals laser canals were formed. The walls
OBJECTIVE
Tumor hypoxia is associated with poor prognosis and increased tumor aggressiveness. Carbonic anhydrase (CA) IX, an endogenous marker for tumor hypoxia, catalyzes the hydration of carbon dioxide into carbonic acid and contributes to the pH regulation of tumor cells. Therefore, CA IX might
Esters of alpha-oxo-carbonic acids such as ethyl pyruvate (EP) have been demonstrated to exert inhibitory effects on the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines. So far, there is no information about effects, if any, of ethyl lactate (EL), an obviously inactive analogue of EP, on inflammatory
The objective was to determine effects of an intratracheal Mannheimia haemolytica challenge after 72-h exposure to bovine viral diarrhea virus type 1b (BVDV1b) persistently infected (PI) calves on serum antibody production, white blood cell count (WBC), cytokine concentrations, and blood gases in
Carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) is a transmembrane enzyme involved in the reversible metabolism of carbon dioxide to carbonic acid and, hence, in physiological pH regulation. It also participates in cellular differentiation and proliferation, its expression being absent in most normal tissues. It has
OBJECTIVE
Carbonic anhydrases are proteins involved in the catalytic hydration of carbon dioxide to carbonic acid. Recent studies show that carbonic anhydrase 9 (CA9) is up-regulated by hypoxia and that its immunohistochemical tissue distribution follows the distribution of the radiosensitizer
