| NDHPCCB | non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker |
|---|---|
| TBC | thyroxine-binding coagulin; total body calcium; total body clearance; tuberculosis |
| TC | target cell; taurocholate; temperature compensation; teratocarcinoma; tertiary cleavage; tetracyclin... |
| VGCC | voltage-gated calcium channels |
| VOCC | voltage-operated calcium channel |
| calcium-transporting atpase | <enzyme> An enzyme found in the sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicle membrane. During the relaxation of skeletal muscles and muscle rich in mitochondria, this enzyme catalyses the active transport of calcium into the sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles from the sarcoplasm. It requires micromolar concentrations of calcium and utilises mgatp as a substrate. Chemical name: ATP phosphohydrolase (Calcium-transporting) Registry number: EC 3.6.1.38 (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| calcium trisodium pentetate | The calcium trisodium salt of pentetic acid. Synonym: calcium trisodium pentetate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| calcium tungstate | A phosphor with a high stopping power for X-rays that was formerly used widely in fluoroscopic screens and intensifying screens for radiography. (05 Mar 2000) |
| racaemic calcium pantothenate | <chemistry> A mixture of the calcium salts of the dextrorotatory and levorotatory isomers of pantothenic acid; same uses as calcium pantothenate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vacuolar calcium ATPase | <enzyme> Isolated from saccharomyces cerevisiae; genbank u36603 Registry number: EC 3.6.1.- Synonym: h(+)-ca(2+)-atpase, vacuolar (26 Jun 1999) |
| pentetate trisodium calcium | The calcium trisodium salt of pentetic acid. Synonym: calcium trisodium pentetate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ryanodine receptor calcium release channel | Protein complexes that mediate the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum in both skeletal and cardiac muscle cells by forming tetrametric complexes. These complexes each then act as a calcium channel. There are three isoforms of the ryr: ryr1, ryr2, and ryr3. Ryr1 is specifically expressed in skeletal muscles and ryr2 in cardiac muscles. Ryr3 is yet another isoform found in non-muscle cells such as neuronal cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| citrated calcium carbimide | A mixture of two parts citric acid to one part calcium carbimide; in the metabolism of ethanol, it slows the conversion of acetaldehyde to acetate; used in the treatment of alcoholism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| milk of calcium | Densely calcified fluid, most often found radiographically in the gallbladder in association with chronic obstruction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| piperazine calcium edetate | (ethylenedinitrilo)tetraacetic acid piperazine calcium salt;an anthelmintic. (05 Mar 2000) |
| placental calcium-binding protein | <protein> Calcium binding protein of placenta, uterus and vasculature containing the EF hand motif. (18 Nov 1997) |
| crude calcium sulfide | Used externally in the treatment of acne, scabies, and ringworm. Synonym: sulfurated lime. (05 Mar 2000) |
| precipitated calcium carbonate | CaCO3;used as an antacid in the management of peptic ulcers and other conditions of gastric hyperacidity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| secondary calcium phosphate | CaHPO4-2H2O;used as a calcium and phosphorus dietary supplement. Synonym: calcium monohydrogen phosphate, secondary calcium phosphate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sodium-calcium exchanger | An electrogenic ion exchange protein that maintains a steady level of calcium by removing an amount of calcium equal to that which enters the cells. It is widely distributed in most excitable membranes, including the brain and heart. (12 Dec 1998) |
