The gene therapy approach presented in this protocol employs a polymer encapsulated, xenogenic, transfected cell line to release human ciliary neurotrophic factor (hCNTF) for the treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). A tethered device, containi ...
The cement for surgical purposes includes three components. The first component includes beta tertiary calciumphosphate beta-Ca3(PO4)2(beta-TCP) particles; and monocalcium phosphate Ca(H2PO4)2(MCPA) or monocalcium phosphate monohydrate Ca(H2PO4).H2O (MCPM) ...
The regulation of the eukaryotic cell cycle depends on the action of several related Ser/Thr protein kinases called cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs), which are transiently activated at specific stages of the cycle, and which are also very promising targets ...
DNA-calcium phosphate co-precipitates arise spontaneously in supersaturated solutions. Highly effective precipitates for transfection purposes, however, can be generated only in a very narrow range of physico-chemical conditions that control the initiation ...
Oxiranecarbonitrile in basic aq. soln. at room temp. reacts regioselectively with inorg. phosphate to give the cyanohydrin of 2-oxoethyl phosphate ('glycolaldehyde phosphate'), a source of (the hydrate of) the free aldehyde, preferably in the presence of f ...
Arsenic occurs in the +III oxidation state as a metastable species in oxic waters. Under oxic conditions, As(III) is both more mobile in natural waters and less efficiently removed by water treatment processes than As(V). Other oxidants, however, can react ...
NOVELTY - The bone substitute is made in one piece from cement phosphocalcium materials consolidated chemically at low temperature and in presence of water. USE - In medicine, as artificial bone graft. ADVANTAGE - Macroporous structure promotes resorption ...
In the context of the chem. of potentially prebiol. natural products it would be important to know whether, from a chem. point of view, glycolaldehyde phosphate could be considered as a potentially prebiol. natural material. In this connection, the reactio ...
Injectable calcium phosphate hydraulic cement (CPHC) is a new bone substitute family. This study aimed to evaluate the use of CPHC in surgical periodontitis-simulating defects in a dog model. CPHC was obtained by adding powder mixtures of different calcium ...
Structure and morphology of solid particles in precipitation from aqueous solutions correlate with formation (solution) conditions and thus reflect the growth mechanism. Calcium phosphate precipitation obtained from dilute aqueous solutions at room and bod ...
