Uranium and Kidney Toxicity.

Posted on February 17, 2017 by Dr. Gary Pack

Exposure to excessive uranium (U) in humans and animals is believed to damage their kidneys. This review article studies previous research data to evaluate the danger of kidney disease (nephrotoxicity) after exposure to U in humans. Without knowing exactly how it happens, evidence at this time is that U can cause kidney damage. U is […]

Urine pH and Uric Acid Clearance.

Posted on November 27, 2015 by Dr. Gary Pack

Alkalization of the urine (higher pH) increases the excretion of uric acid* in the urine. Acidification of the urine (lower pH) increases blood levels of uric acid, possibly due to the rapid reabsorption of uric acid in the kidney from acid urine. These points were verified in the testing of 18 young women who were […]

Carbonic Anhydrase in Ankylosing Spondylitis.

Posted on May 8, 2011 by Dr. Gary Pack

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a disease with increased bone resorption and formation in areas of chronic inflammation. There is mainly involvement of the sacroiliac joints and of the spine. This present study was done to identify the proteins involved in the synovial membranes of patients with AS, rheumatoid arthritis (RA,) and osteoarthritis (OA,) to compare […]

Systemic Buffers in Tumor pH and Tumor Invasion.

Posted on April 29, 2011 by Dr. Gary Pack

Magnetic resonance imaging shows (MRI) that cancers are acidic. This acidity has been shown to increase tumor cell metastases, growth, and invasiveness. An acidic environment leads to toxicity and apoptosis (natural cell death) for normal cells. An acidic pH promotes angiogenesis (growth of new blood vessels.) The result is an area of dead and dying […]

Acidification of Tumors as Cancer Treatment.

Posted on April 8, 2011 by Dr. Gary Pack

Intracellular and extracellular pH levels are manipulated by the cancer process to promote cancer growth. Our ability to manipulate those pH levels may be useful in cancer treatment. Potential approaches include the following: (1) Alkalinizing therapy to increase extracellular pH. (2) Proton pump inhibitors to reduce the intracellular space toward acidity. (3) Rapid intracellular acidification […]
