LPCAT1 controls phosphate homeostasis in a zinc-dependent manner

LPCAT1 controls phosphate homeostasis in a zinc-dependent manner

All living organisms require a variety of essential elements for their basic biological functions. While the homeostasis of nutrients is highly intertwined, the molecular and genetic mechanisms of these dependencies remain poorly understood. Here, we report a discovery of a molecular pathway that controls phosphate (Pi) accumulation in plants under Zn deficiency. Using genome-wide association s...

Inorganic phosphate homeostasis in sodium-dependent phosphate cotransporter Npt2b⁺/⁻ mice.

An inorganic phosphate (P(i))-restricted diet is important for patients with chronic kidney disease and patients on hemodialysis. Phosphate binders are essential for preventing hyperphosphatemia and ectopic calcification. The sodium-dependent P(i) (Na/P(i)) transport system is involved in intestinal P(i) absorption and is regulated by several factors. The type II sodium-dependent P(i) transport...

A comparison study on corrosion behavior of zinc phosphate and potassium zinc phosphate anticorrosive pigments

In this article, the effect of potassium on structure and anticorrosion properties of zinc phosphate pigments has been investigated. The co-precipitation method was selected as synthesis method of potassium zinc phosphate pigment. Then the synthesized pigment was characterized by x-ray diffraction XRD, Fourier transform infrared FTIR and Raman spectroscopy. Morphology of the powders was investi...

Age-dependent phosphate homeostasis is regulated by a circulating factor.

To evaluate the age-dependent phosphate homeostasis, we studied the serum inorganic phosphate (P(i)) concentration in 78 recipients, aged 5-25 years, a year after renal transplantation (RT). The significant age-dependent decline of the serum P(i) concentration was observed in recipients (p < 0.0001) as well as in normal children. Our study revealed that a circulating factor may play a central r...
