Combined administration of vitamin D3 and nicotine produced severe myocardial and aortic calcinosis in mice within 4 days. Treatment of these mice with taurine increased the survival rate of the mice and reduced the elevation of calcium content in both aorta and myocardium as did diltiazem
Protective effects of benidipine hydrochloride (KW-3049) against arterial calcinosis and its possible mechanisms of action have been investigated. Arterial calcinosis was induced in rats by combined administration of vitamin D2 (1050000 IU/kg, s.c.) and nicotine (12.5 mg/kg, p.o., b.i.d.) for 6
In vascular smooth muscle (as in myocardial fibers) a transmembrane supply of Ca++ ions is required for active tension development. In consequence, Ca++ antagonists, which restrict transmembrane Ca++ delivery, possess a wide scope of action against practically all types of vasoconstrictor or spastic
1. The haemodynamic effects of the Ca2+ facilitator Bay K-8644 (Bay) were studied in a model of calcinosis induced by acute treatment with vitamin D3 and nicotine administration over 4 days with 13 days of recovery. 2. Calcium content of the left ventricular myocardium increased 8-9 fold, while
Using specific calcium antagonists as experimental tools, both the physiological messenger and current carrying function of calcium ions as well as their pathogenetic potencies could be elucidated. Notably, excess intracellular calcium signalling and intra- and extracellular calcium overload turned
Calcification is an undesirable disorder, which frequently occurs in the heart vessels. In general, the formation of calcific vascular lesions involves complex physicochemical and molecular events. Calcification (hydroxyapatite) is initiated by injury and is progressed by promoter factors and/or the
Background Mammography screening reduces breast cancer mortality, but a proportion of breast cancers are missed and are detected at later stages or develop during between-screening intervals. Purpose To develop a risk model based on negative mammograms that identifies women likely to be diagnosed
