Example sentences for: calcium

How can you use “calcium” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • They block the glutamatergic (excitatory) pathways that are overstimulated in PD [ 7 ] . Such action decreases the influx of calcium ions into the neuron, and hence downregulates the activation of calcium dependent enzymes.

  • An amino terminal, calcium-dependent lipid binding (CaLB or C2) domain regulates Ca 2+-mediated cPLA 2 translocation to intracellular membranes [ 9 ] . In vitro, membrane docking via the C2 domain is necessary and sufficient for catalysis and release of AA [ 10 ] . Binding of calcium ions by the cPLA 2 C2 domain is essential for the lipid association in vitro [ 11 12 ] and translocation in vivo [ 13 14 ] . In response to an increase in [Ca 2+] i , cPLA 2 translocates to the Golgi and ER, however translocation to Golgi occurs at a lower [Ca 2+] i [ 15 ] .

  • During positive inotropy there is an increase in ATP utilization and thus myocardial oxygen consumption related to increased cross-bridge cycling and calcium handling [ 1 ] . Heat measurements of isolated heart muscle have assigned approximately 50% of total energy consumption to cross-bridge cycling and 20% to calcium cycling [ 2 ] . However, recently, studies in both isolated hearts and myocytes [ 3 4 ] , examining the energetic effects of increasing inotropy with the calcium sensitizing agent EMD 57033 have suggested that the energetic cost associated with increasing inotropy is largely related to calcium cycling.

  • Increased urinary calcium is an expected compensatory response with associated increased risk of renal calculi.

  • Assembly reactions contained 1 mg/ml FtsZ (determined by our calibrated BCA assay [ 14]), 2 mM GTP or GDP and variable concentrations of DEAE-dextran or calcium.
