Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated the weathering of coal combustion products (CCPs) in rivers after a fly ash release in 2008, focusing on heavy metals and metalloids in sediment collected over time.
  • Sediment samples showed a positive correlation between arsenic and selenium concentrations with the presence of ash, and while trace element levels were initially elevated, they decreased toward reference concentrations within 780 days.
  • The research highlighted a significant reduction in the bioavailability of trace elements through sequential extraction, demonstrating the natural attenuation process in river sediment over nearly 2.5 years.

In the nervous system, receptor regulated phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinases (PI 3-kinases) participate in fundamental cellular activities that underlie development. Activated by trophic factors, growth factors, neuregulins, cytokines, or neurotransmitters, PI 3-kinases have been implicated in neuronal and glial survival and differentiation. PI 3-kinases produce inositol lipid second messengers that bind to pleckstrin homology (PH) domains in diverse groups of signal transduction proteins, and control their enzymatic activities, subcellular membrane localization, or both.
