Disease relevance of Bi(3+)

 

High impact information on Bi(3+)

  • Of the dopants examined, Bi(3+) most enhanced osteoblast long-term calcium-containing mineral deposition [2].
  • The present in vitro study doped hydroxyapatite (HA) with various metal cations (Mg(2+), Zn(2+), La(3+), Y(3+), In(3+), and Bi(3+)) in an attempt to enhance properties of HA pertinent to orthopedic and dental applications [2].
  • NRK-52E cells exposed to 100 microM Bi(3+) or more died by necrosis, as was demonstrated by nuclear staining with Hoechst 33258 and flow cytometry using Alexa(488)-labeled Annexin-V and the vital nuclear dye TOPRO-3 [3].
  • The active C319A mutant of the bacterial enzyme displays a significantly reduced sensitivity toward inactivation by Bi(EDTA) compared with the wild-type enzyme, consistent with binding of Bi(3+) to the active site cysteine (Cys(319)) as the mechanism of enzyme inactivation [4].
  • We introduced a simple chemical method to synthesize semimetal bismuth nanoparticles in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) by reducing Bi(3+) with sodium borohydride (NaBH(4)) in the presence of poly(vinylpyrroldone) (PVP) at room temperature [5].
