Calcium requirements for Japanese quail in the early growth period by Mostafa Ahmadi, Kamal Shojaeian, Mahmoud Ghazaghi, Mehran Mehri

“…Based on the combined highest R² and lowest standard deviation of residuals (Sy.x), the overall optimal dietary Ca requirement for quail chicks was estimated at 0.800 % for growth and efficiency, but higher levels may be needed to support bone density and immune function. These findings provide valuable insights for optimizing Ca nutrition in quail production.…”

A Quantitative Model of Chemotherapeutic Drug Sensitivity as a Function of P-Glycoprotein Expression by Cara M. Robertus, Nisha Kannan, David Putnam

“…Additionally, we model the kinetics of calcein-AM, a P-gp substrate, as a function of P-gp expression. (3) Results: For both cell lines, a robust linear relationship governs chemotherapeutic sensitivity as a function of P-gp expression, demonstrating that characterization of P-gp surface density is a strong indicator of drug response in drug-resistant cells. …”
