Pharmacology of Mammalian Na+-Dependent Transporters of Inorganic Phosphate
Inorganic phosphate (Pi) is an essential component of many biologically important molecules such as DNA, RNA, ATP, phospholipids, or apatite. It is... -
Phosphate Burden and Inflammation
Phosphate is an essential macromineral often introduced to the body through dietary intake. The mechanisms for maintaining phosphate levels are... -
Microfluidic Production of Inorganic Nanoparticles
Inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) have considerable potential for biomedical applications, such as drug delivery, cancer imaging, and cell tracking.... -
Phosphate Is a Cardiovascular Toxin
Phosphate is essential for proper cell function by providing the fundamentals for DNADNA, cellular structure, signaling and energy production. The... -
Vitamin D and Phosphate Interactions in Health and Disease
Vitamin D plays an essential role in calcium and inorganic phosphate (Pi) homeostasis, maintaining their optimal levels to assure adequate bone... -
Phosphate and Endothelial Function: How Sensing of Elevated Inorganic Phosphate Concentration Generates Signals in Endothelial Cells
Present in all cells, inorganic phosphateInorganic phosphates (Pi) is involved in regulating a wide range of fundamental cellular processes including... -
Phosphate and Cellular Senescence
Cellular senescence is one type of permeant arrest of cell growth and one of increasingly recognized contributor to aging and age-associated disease.... -
Extracellular Phosphate, Inflammation and Cytotoxicity
Phosphorus is an essential nutrient that plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including cell membrane integrity, synthesis of... -
Phosphate Metabolism: From Physiology to Toxicity
Systemic phosphate homeostasis is tightly controlled by the delicate cross-organ talk among intestine, kidney, bone, and parathyroid glands. The... -
Common Dietary Sources of Natural and Artificial Phosphate in Food
The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for phosphate in the U.S. is around 700 mg/day for adults. The majority of healthy adults consume almost... -
Phosphate Toxicity and Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
The underlying role of inadequate or excess intake of phosphate is evident in disease states, including metabolic, skeletal, cardiac, kidney and... -
Phosphate intake, hyperphosphatemia, and kidney function
Phosphate is essential in living organisms and its blood levels are regulated by a complex network involving the kidneys, intestine, parathyroid...
