ABCC6 and ANK regulate extracellular homeostasis of pyrophosphate and citrate and affect mineral deposition in bones and soft connective tissues

Flóra Szeri, Fatemeh Niaziorimi, C. Y. P. Ng, Cassandra Mikkelson et autres

Abstract ABCC6 and ANK are integral membrane proteins involved in the efflux of specific organic anions. ABCC6, primarily expressed in the liver, regulates circulating levels of the mineralization inhibitor pyrophosphate (PPi). In contrast, ANK is widely expressed and plays a dual role, …

Conversion coefficients for determination of dispersed photon dose during radiotherapy: NRUrad input code for MCNP

Mehrdad Shahmohammadi Beni, C. Y. P. Ng, Dragana Z. Krstic, Dragoslav R. Nikezic et autres

Radiotherapy is a common cancer treatment module, where a certain amount of dose will be delivered to the targeted organ. This is achieved usually by photons generated by linear accelerator units. However, radiation scattering within the patient's body and the surrounding environment …

Auto-development issue in quality assurance of biological X-ray irradiator using Gafchromic EBT3 film

P.M. Chan, C. Y. P. Ng, Mehrdad Shahmohammadi Beni, SH Law et autres

Radiochromic films are convenient dosimeters for quality assurance of biological X-ray irradiators. However, their calibration curves (optical density vs. radiation dose) can have relatively short lifespans due to non-catalytic auto-development. In the present work, “corrected” calibration curves were proposed, which were constructed …

Combined effects of alpha particles and depleted uranium on Zebrafish ( Danio rerio ) embryos

C. Y. P. Ng, Sandrine Pereira, Shuk Han Cheng, Christelle Adam‐Guillermin et autres

The combined effects of low-dose or high-dose alpha particles and depleted uranium (DU) in Zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos were studied. Three schemes were examined-(i) [ILUL]: 0.44 mGy alpha-particle dose + 10 µg/l DU exposure, (ii) [IHUH]: 4.4 mGy alpha-particle dose + 100 …

Non-induction of radioadaptive response in zebrafish embryos by neutrons

C. Y. P. Ng, Eva Yi Kong, Alisa Kobayashi, Noriyoshi Suya et autres

In vivo neutron-induced radioadaptive response (RAR) was studied using zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos. The Neutron exposure Accelerator System for Biological Effect Experiments (NASBEE) facility at the National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS), Japan, was employed to provide 2-MeV neutrons. Neutron doses of …

Combined effects of depleted uranium and ionising radiation on zebrafish embryos

C. Y. P. Ng, Sandrine Pereira, Shuk Han Cheng, Christelle Adam‐Guillermin et autres

In the environment, living organisms are exposed to a mixture of stressors, and the combined effects are deemed as multiple stressor effects. In the present work, the authors studied the multiple stressor effect in embryos of the zebrafish (Danio rerio) from simultaneous …
