Multicolor imaging of calcium-binding proteins in human kidney stones for elucidating the effects of proteins on crystal growth
Abstract The pathogenesis of kidney stone formation includes multi-step processes involving complex interactions between mineral components and protein matrix. Calcium-binding proteins in kidney stones have great influences on the stone formation. The spatial distributions of these proteins in kidne...
