Quin2 is a fluorescent indicator of intracellular free calcium concentration. It is a tetracarboxylate derivative of the calcium chelator Quin 1. The molecule was developed by Roger Tsien and colleagues in the 1980s, and it revolutionized the study of calcium signaling in living cells. Quin2 is a cell-permeable molecule that binds to calcium with high affinity. Upon binding calcium, Quin2 undergoes a conformational change that increases its fluorescence intensity. This change in fluorescence can be measured using a fluorescence microscope, allowing researchers to monitor changes in intracellular calcium concentration in real-time. Quin2 has been widely used to study calcium signaling in a variety of cell types, including neurons, muscle cells, and immune cells. Quin2 has been instrumental in understanding the role of calcium in various cellular processes, such as muscle contraction, neurotransmission, and cell proliferation. The importance of Quin2 lies in its ability to non-invasively measure intracellular calcium dynamics. It allowed researchers to study the intricate calcium signaling pathways and their roles in diverse physiological and pathological processes. Quin2 paved the way for the development of a range of calcium indicators, including other fluorescent probes and genetically encoded sensors. Quin2's development and application have significantly advanced our understanding of cellular calcium signaling. However, it has some limitations, including a relatively slow response time, potential toxicity at high concentrations, and its susceptibility to interference by other ions. Nevertheless, Quin2 remains a valuable tool for studying calcium signaling in biological systems.'

| Hypothyroidism A syndrome that results from abnormally low secretion of THYROID HORMONES from the THYROID GLAND, leading to a decrease in BASAL METABOLIC RATE. In its most severe form, there is accumulation of MUCOPOLYSACCHARIDES in the SKIN and EDEMA, known as MYXEDEMA. It may be primary or secondary due to other pituitary disease, or hypothalamic dysfunction. | 0 | 1.97 | 1 | 0 |

| Leukemia A progressive, malignant disease of the blood-forming organs, characterized by distorted proliferation and development of leukocytes and their precursors in the blood and bone marrow. Leukemias were originally termed acute or chronic based on life expectancy but now are classified according to cellular maturity. Acute leukemias consist of predominately immature cells; chronic leukemias are composed of more mature cells. (From The Merck Manual, 2006) | 0 | 2.37 | 2 | 0 |

| Cystic Fibrosis An autosomal recessive genetic disease of the EXOCRINE GLANDS. It is caused by mutations in the gene encoding the CYSTIC FIBROSIS TRANSMEMBRANE CONDUCTANCE REGULATOR expressed in several organs including the LUNG, the PANCREAS, the BILIARY SYSTEM, and the SWEAT GLANDS. Cystic fibrosis is characterized by epithelial secretory dysfunction associated with ductal obstruction resulting in AIRWAY OBSTRUCTION; chronic RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS; PANCREATIC INSUFFICIENCY; maldigestion; salt depletion; and HEAT PROSTRATION. | 0 | 2.37 | 2 | 0 |

| Leiomyosarcoma A sarcoma containing large spindle cells of smooth muscle. Although it rarely occurs in soft tissue, it is common in the viscera. It is the most common soft tissue sarcoma of the gastrointestinal tract and uterus. The median age of patients is 60 years.

| Hyperparathyroidism A condition of abnormally elevated output of PARATHYROID HORMONE (or PTH) triggering responses that increase blood CALCIUM. It is characterized by HYPERCALCEMIA and BONE RESORPTION, eventually leading to bone diseases. PRIMARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM is caused by parathyroid HYPERPLASIA or PARATHYROID NEOPLASMS. SECONDARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM is increased PTH secretion in response to HYPOCALCEMIA, usually caused by chronic KIDNEY DISEASES. | 0 | 1.96 | 1 | 0 |

| Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION. | 0 | 1.96 | 1 | 0 |
