aim : the aim of this study was to discuss the prevalence of celiac disease (cd) in dyspeptic patients. background : although severe mucosal abnormality with villous atrophy (lesions marsh iii) is at present the gold standard for the diagnosis of cd, presentation with non-specific microenteropathy (marsh i-ii) with positive serology is also common. patients with dyspepsia, specific cd antibodie...

The assembly of the asymmetric bis(bidentate) 2-pyrimidinecarboxylate ligand with Cd(II) produces a metal-organic framework with the RHO zeolitic topology, while 5-(2'-pyrimidyl)tetrazolate with Cd(II) leads to square grid networks.

We have prepared supramolecular systems of chiral Schiff base Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) complexes and colloidal gold nanoparticles (AuNP) of 10 nm diameters. They demonstrated that direct adsorption of chiral Schiff base metal complex on the surface of AuNP owing to observation of clear induced CD spectra for the first time. We observed and discussed induced CD bands on AuNP from chiral Schiff bas...

The inhibition of human erythrocyte glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) by Cd (II), Al (III) and Ni (II) was studied. The enzyme was partially purified having specific activity of 1.4 U/mg protein. Cadmium inhibited G6PD activity progressively up to 1.5 mM concentration where about 65% of the enzyme activity was lost. The inhibition was uncompetitive and noncompetitive with respect to gluc...

The Staphylococcus aureus plasmid pI258 cadCA operon encodes a P-type ATPase, CadA, that confers resistance to Cd(II)/Pb(II)/Zn(II). Expression is regulated by CadC, a homodimeric repressor that dissociates from the cad operator/promoter upon binding of Cd(II), Pb(II), or Zn(II). CadC is a member of the ArsR/SmtB family of metalloregulatory proteins. The crystal structure of CadC shows two type...

In the title three-dimensional coordination polymer, [Cd(N(3))(2)(C(8)H(10)N(4))](n), the coordination geometry around the Cd(II) atom is distorted octa-hedral. The Cd(II) atom is coordinated by two N atoms from two cis-positioned bridging 1,2-bis-(imidazol-1-yl)ethane (bime) ligands and four N atoms from four azide anions. Each azide ligand acts in an end-on bridging coordination mode. The azi...
