Evaluation of Serum Calcium, Magnesium, Copper, and Zinc Levels in Women with Pre-eclampsia

Background: Pre-eclampsia along with its complications seems to be one of the major causes of maternal morbidity and mortality. Despite numerous studies, the etiology of pre-eclampsia has not yet been fully elucidated. According to recent studies changes in the level of blood trace elements can be an adverse event in human and animal pregnancy. The present study determines whether maternal seru...

Calcium and Magnesium Homeostasis

Magnesium, calcium and cancer.

Magnesium ion (Mg(2+)) and calcium ion (Ca(2+)) control a diverse and important range of cellular processes, such as gene transcription, cell proliferation, neoplastic transformation, immune response and therapeutic treatment. Their characteristic biologic antagonism makes it important to treat the most important aspects of that competitive behavior together. This synopsis aims to be a useful m...

Calcium, Phosphorus and Magnesium

A total of approximately 1-1.5kg of body weight is made up of calcium where 99% is found in the bones and teeth and remaining 1% is in the ECF and other compartments. Ca exists as carbonates or phosphates of calcium within the body, while in the plasma they exist in either the ionized form(which is the physiologically active form), bound to plasma proteins(mainly albumin) or complexes with orga...

Calcium, Magnesium, and Local Anesthesia

5 ml aliquots of chloroform: methanol (2:1) containing 5 mg of cephalin (animal)/ml w e r e agitated for 10 rain with 2.0 ml aqueous solution containing NaC1 116 n~ , KCI 2.5 raM, CaCI2 1.5 m.~, and MgC12 in concentrations ranging from 0.7 up to 16 mM at pH 6.0. After centrifugation and separation of the two phases Ca ++ and Mg ++ concentrations were determined in the upper (water -b methanol) ...
