Ca2+has an important role in the maintenance of the skeleton and is involved in the main physiological processes.Its homeostasis is controlled by the intestine,kidney,bone and parathyroid glands.The intestinal Ca2+absorption occurs mainly via the paracellular and the transcellular pathways.The proteins involved in both ways are regulated by calcitriol and other hormones as well as dietary factors.Fibroblast growth factor 23(FGF-23)is a strong antagonist of vitamin D action.Part of the intestinal Ca2+movement seems to be vitamin D independent.Intestinal Ca2+absorption changes according to different physiological conditions.It is promoted under high Ca2+demands such as growth,pregnancy,lactation,dietary Ca2+deficiency and high physical activity.In contrast,the intestinal Ca2+transport decreases with aging.Oxidative stress inhibits the intestinal Ca2+absorption whereas the antioxidants counteract the effects of prooxidants leading to the normalization of this physiological process.Several pathologies such as celiac disease,inflammatory bowel diseases,Turner syndrome and others occur with inhibition of intestinal Ca2+absorption,some hypercalciurias show Ca2+hyperabsorption,most of these alterations are related to the vitamin D endocrine system.Further research work should be accomplished in order not only to know more molecular details but also to detect possible therapeutic targets to ameliorate or avoid the consequences of altered intestinal Ca2+absorption. 展开更多

Regeneration,as a fascinating scientific field,refers to the ability of animals replacing lost tissue or body parts.Many metazoan organisms have been reported with the regeneration phenomena,but showing evolutionarily variable abilities.As the most diverse metazoan taxon,hundreds of insects show strong appendage regeneration ability.The regeneration process and ability are dependent on many factors,including macroscopic physiological conditions and microscopic molecular mechanisms.This article reviews research progress on the physiological conditions and internal underlying mechanisms controlling appendage regeneration in insects. 展开更多

Cancer cell lines have been used widely in cancer biology, and as biological or functional cell systems in many biomedical research fields. These cells are usually defective for many normal activities or functions due to significant genetic and epigenetic changes. Normal primary cell yields and viability from any original tissue specimens are usually relatively low or highly variable. These normal cells cease after a few passages or population doublings due to very limited proliferative capacity. Animal models(ferret, mouse, etc.) are often used to study virus-host interaction. However, viruses usually need to be adapted to the animals by several passages due to tropism restrictions including viral receptors and intracellular restrictions. Here we summarize applications of conditionally reprogrammed cells(CRCs), long-term cultures of normal airway epithelial cells from human nose to lung generated by conditional cell reprogramming(CR) technology, as an ex vivo model in studies of emerging viruses. CR allows to robustly propagate cells from non-invasive or minimally invasive specimens, for example, nasal or endobronchial brushing. This process is rapid(2 days) and conditional. The CRCs maintain their differentiation potential and lineage functions, and have been used for studies of adenovirus, rhinovirus, respiratory syncytial virus, influenza viruses, parvovirus, and SARS-CoV. The CRCs can be easily used for airliquid interface(ALI) polarized 3 D cultures, and these coupled CRC/ALI cultures mimic physiological conditions and are suitable for studies of viral entry including receptor binding and internalization, innate immune responses, viral replications, and drug discovery as an ex vivo model for emerging viruses. 展开更多

Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) can be used to image individual biological molecules, such as proteins, in vacuum or air. This requires sample dehydration and thus may not reflect the native state of the molecule. Extensive efforts have been made to image single proteins in solution using STM; however, the images have revealed only round or oval shapes with no sub-molecular details. Here, we present the sub-molecular features of streptavidin proteins under physiological conditions using a homebuilt low-leakage-current and highstability liquid phase STM. The N-lobe, C-lobe, and C-terminal tail of the epidermal growth factor receptor kinase domains were also resolved in solution. Our results demonstrate that the structure, morphology, and dynamics of a protein molecule can be examined under physiological conditions by the STM.
