Microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a technique that uses the
metabolic action of microorganisms to produce CO 3 2− which combines with free Ca 2+ to …

Over the past decade, the increased adoption of electroporation-based technologies has led
to an expansion of clinical research initiatives. Electroporation has been utilized in …

Plant intracellular nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptors (NLRs) detect pathogen
effectors to trigger immune responses. Indirect recognition of a pathogen effector by the …

The assembly of the NLRP3 inflammasome can promote the release of IL-1β/IL-18 and
initiate pyroptosis. Accordingly, the dysregulation of NLRP3 inflammasome activation is …

Calcium phosphate is the inorganic mineral of hard tissues such as bone and teeth. Due to
their similarities to the natural bone, calcium phosphates are highly biocompatible and …

Importance It is unclear whether administration of calcium has a beneficial effect in patients
with cardiac arrest. Objective To determine whether administration of calcium during out-of …

Calcium electroporation is a potential novel anti-cancer treatment where high calcium
concentrations are introduced into cells by electroporation, a method where short, high …

Electroporation of cells with short, high-voltage pulses causes a transient permeabilization
of cell membranes that permits passage of otherwise nonpermeating ions and molecules. In …

Overexpression of P2X7 receptors correlates with tumor growth and metastasis. Yet, release
of ATP is associated with immunogenic cancer cell death as well as inflammatory responses …

Mitochondria play key roles in ATP supply, calcium homeostasis, redox balance control and
apoptosis, which in neurons are fundamental for neurotransmission and to allow synaptic …
