Potassium: From Physiology to Clinical Implications.
BACKGROUND Potassium (K(+)) is the major intracellular cation, with 98% of the total pool being located in the cells at a concentration of 140-150 mmol/l, and only 2% in the extracellular fluid, where it ranges between 3.5 and 5 mmol/l. A fine regulation of the intracellular-extracellular gradient is crucial for life, as it is the main determinant of membrane voltage; in fact, acute changes of ...

ANTICOAGULANT PATHWAY P ROTEIN-C is a vitamin-K-dependent plasma zymogen.’ After activation, activated protein-C differs from the vitamin-K-dependent plasma clotting factors in that it potently inhibits coagulation5 by inactivating factors V6’7 and VIII,7’8 and it facilitates fibrinolysis in vivo9”#{176} by elevating circulating plasminogen activator levels.tO Clinical evidence of protein-C inv...
متن کاملEndometrial angiogenesis: physiology and clinical implications.
Angiogenesis is the process of formation of new blood vessels from existing ones (in this it differs from vasculogenesis, the de novo formation of blood vessels in the embryo). With the exception of the female reproductive tract, healthy mature human tissues do not display angiogenesis to any significant extent, except in response to trauma. In the ovary and uterus, on the other hand, extensive...
