  3. Chelation therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelation_therapy

    Chelation therapy is a medical procedure that involves the administration of chelating agents to remove heavy metals from the body. [1] Chelation therapy has a long history of use in clinical toxicology [2] and remains in use for some very specific medical treatments, although it is administered under very careful medical supervision due to various inherent risks, including the mobilization of ...

  4. Beta-propeller phytase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta-propeller_phytase

    High Ca 2+ concentration can enhance BPP catalysis rate up to a limit. When Ca 2+ concentration surpasses this limit, extra Ca 2+ ions begin to work as competitive inhibitors. High concentrations of free phytate which not bound to Ca 2+ also inhibits BPPs. This happens possibly via free phytate mediated chelation of the Ca 2+ bound to BPPs. [4]

  5. Chelation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelation

    Chelation therapy is an antidote for poisoning by mercury, arsenic, and lead. Chelating agents convert these metal ions into a chemically and biochemically inert form that can be excreted. Chelation using sodium calcium edetate has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for serious cases of lead poisoning.

  6. Phytic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phytic_acid

    The hexavalent phytate anion. Phytic acid was discovered in 1903. [2] Generally, phosphorus and inositol in phytate form are not bioavailable to non-ruminant animals because these animals lack the enzyme phytase required to hydrolyze the inositol-phosphate linkages. Ruminants are able to digest phytate because of the phytase produced by rumen ...

    About 12.2 million new strokes are diagnosed each year. One in four stroke survivors will experience another stroke. Stroke survivors are at an increased risk of developing major heart issues ...

  8. Inositol phosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inositol_phosphate

    inositol hexaphosphate (IP 6) also known as phytic acid, or phytate (as a salt). A series of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation reactions are carried out by at least 19 phosphoinositide kinases and 28 phosphoinositide phosphatase enzymes [ 1 ] allowing for the inter-conversion between the inositol phosphate compounds based on cellular demand.

  9. Toxic encephalopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxic_encephalopathy

    Toxic encephalopathy is a neurologic disorder caused by exposure to neurotoxic organic solvents such as toluene, following exposure to heavy metals such as manganese, as a side effect of melarsoprol treatment for African trypanosomiasis, adverse effects to prescription drugs, or exposure to extreme concentrations of any natural toxin such as cyanotoxins found in shellfish or freshwater ...
