The effect of carbohydrates on calcium absorption were studied in situ following the injection of a solution containing CaCl2 (+45Ca) into the ileal loop. The increase in Ca absorption was proportional to the concentration of carbohydrates injected and could be attributed to a progressive increase in the duration of absorption. In the ileal loop, sorbitol was much more effective than L-arabinose at equal concentrations in activating absorption. Such differences in the action of these carbohydrates were also observed in vitro with alkaline phosphatase extracted from the ileum. The transphosphorylating effect of the enzyme was much more pronounced in the case of sorbitol. Since the carbohydrate is a phosphate acceptor, it might influence the duration of absorption by reducing the inhibition exerted by phosphate upon a transfer mechanism which involves phosphatase, another possibility is that carbohydrate could postpone calcium insolubility through the formation of a phosphocarbohydrate complex.

End-to-End Deep Learning Prediction of Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Response in Osteosarcoma Patients Using Routine MRI.

J Imaging Inform Med

January 2025

Department of Radiology, Peking University People's Hospital, 11 Xizhimen Nandajie, Xicheng District, Beijing, 100044, P. R. China.

This study aims to develop an end-to-end deep learning (DL) model to predict neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) response in osteosarcoma (OS) patients using routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We retrospectively analyzed data from 112 patients with histologically confirmed OS who underwent NACT prior to surgery. Multi-sequence MRI data (including T2-weighted and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images) and physician annotations were utilized to construct an end-to-end DL model.

Background/purpose: Heat stress is essential for improving the efficacy of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based regeneration medicine. However, it is still unclear whether and how heat stress influences the differentiation of stem cells from apical papilla (SCAPs). This research aimed to explore the potential mechanism of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) in regulating differentiation under heat stress in SCAPs.

Background/purpose: Bone reconstruction in the maxillofacial region typically relies on autologous bone grafting, which presents challenges, including donor site complications and graft limitations. Recent advances in tissue engineering have identified highly pure and proliferative dedifferentiated fat cells (DFATs) as promising alternatives. Herein, we explored the capacity for osteoblast differentiation and the osteoinductive characteristics of extracellular vesicles derived from DFATs (DFAT-EVs).
