Association between calcifying nanoparticles and placental calcification
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to examine the possible contribution of calcifying nanoparticles to the pathogenesis of placental calcification. METHODS Calcified placental tissues and distal tissue samples were collected from 36 confirmed placental calcification cases. In addition, 20 normal placental tissue samples were obtained as a control group. All the tissue samples were cultu...
متن کاملAssociation between Randall’s plaque and calcifying nanoparticles
OBJECTIVES Randall initially described calcified subepithelial papillary plaques, which he hypothesized as nidi for urinary calculi. The discovery of calcifying nanoparticles (CNP), also referred to as nanobacteria, in calcified soft tissues has raised another hypothesis about their possible involvement in urinary stone formation. This research is the first attempt to investigate the potential ...
متن کاملAssociation between self-replicating calcifying nanoparticles and aortic stenosis: a possible link to valve calcification.
AIMS Among various hypotheses proposed for pathological tissue calcification, recent evidence supports the possibility that self-replicating calcifying nanoparticles (CNPs) can contribute to such calcification. These CNPs have been detected and isolated from calcified human tissues, including blood vessels and kidney stones, and are referred to as nanobacteria. We evaluated calcific aortic valv...
متن کاملAssociation between dental pulp stones and calcifying nanoparticles
The etiology of dental pulp stones, one type of extraskeletal calcification disease, remains elusive to date. Calcifying nanoparticles (CNPs), formerly referred to as nanobacteria, were reported to be one etiological factor in a number of extraskeletal calcification diseases. We hypothesized that CNPs are involved in the calcification of the dental pulp tissue, and therefore investigated the li...
متن کاملassociation between papp-a and placental thickness
background: measuring of maternal serum pregnancy-associated plasma protein-a (papp-a) in first trimester can be a way for early detection of adverse prenatal outcome due to faulty placenta.objective: the aim was to determination of association between placental thickness in second trimester with low level of papp-a in first trimester.materials and methods: in this cohort study, serum papp-a of...
