A Survey on the Presence of Calcifying Nanoparticles in Renal Stones, Gallbladder Stones and Atherosclerosis Plaque

Background & Aims: Calcifying nanoparticles are different forms of calcium and phosphate in sediments. Recent evidence suggests that calcifying nanoparticles (CNPs) are probably selfreplicating. Several diseases are linked to nano-bacteria including kidney stones, gallbladder stone, cardiovascular plaques, oral–dental plaque, many cancers, and autoimmune diseases. The aim of this study was to a...

Contrast-enhanced MR imaging of atherosclerosis using citrate-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles: calcifying microvesicles as imaging target for plaque characterization

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the suitability of citrate-coated very small superparamagnetic iron oxide particles (VSOP) as a contrast agent for identifying inflammation in atherosclerotic lesions using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS AND RESULTS VSOP, which have already been evaluated as a blood pool contrast agent for MR angiography in human clinical trials, were investigated in Watanabe ...

A Rare Case of Pilomatrixoma (Calcifying Epithelioma of Malherbe) of Parotid Space Masquerading as Salivary Gland Tumor

Dear Editor-in-Chief   Pilomatrixoma is a benign tumor of hair follicle first described as calcifying epithelium (1). It accounts for 1% of all the benign skin tumors (2). It is a slow-growing, firm, dermal or subcutaneous neoplasm, usually measuring fewer than 3 cm in diameter. Pilomatricomas are considered benign; rarely recur after surgical excisi...

Aortic valve-derived calcifyng nanoparticles: no evidence of life.

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Calcifying nanoparticles, also known as "nanobacteria," are very small bacteria-like structures (0.1-0.5 μm) with the ability to facilitate the precipitation and growth of calcium phosphate in pathological conditions and have been associated with aortic valve calcification. The status of nanobacteria is controversial; some have proposed that they are a new class of l...

A Case Report of Calcifying Odontogenic Cyst with Ameloblastic Proliferation

Calcifying odontogenic cyst is a developmental odontogenic cyst first described by Gorlin in 1962. It is considered as an extremely rare condition and shows extensive diversity in its clinicopathological appearances and biologic behavior. In this report a rare case of calcifying odontogenic cyst with ameloblastic proliferation (an extremely rare histologic variant) with one year follow – up is ...
