urinary beta 2-microglobulin as a prognostic marker in children with pyelonephritis running title: beta 2-microglobulin a prognostic marker
background urinary tract infection (uti) is common in children. uti with or without vesico-ureteral reflux (vur) may result in renal scarring. severe renal scarring impairs renal function and may result in hypertension, renal insufficiency, and end stage renal disease requiring dialyses or transplantation. beta 2 micro-globulin (ß2mg) is a low molecular weight protein freely filtered by the glo...
متن کاملHuman 8 2 - microglobulin is a Substrate
Incubation of purified human 82-microglobulin (B2-m) with tissue transglutaminase (Tgase) resulted in the formation of high molecular weight polymers revealed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In the presence of 30 mM ['4C]methylamine, the polymer formation was prevented, but incorporation of methylamine into ,8 2-m (equal to 1 methylamine per 1 molecule) could be ob...
متن کاملCutting edge: HLA-B27 can form a novel beta 2-microglobulin-free heavy chain homodimer structure.
HLA-B27 has a striking association with inflammatory arthritis. We show that free HLA-B27 heavy chains can form a disulfide-bonded homodimer, dependent on residue Cys67 in their extracellular alpha 1 domain. Despite the absence of beta 2-microglobulin, HLA-B27 heavy chain homodimers (termed HC-B27) were stabilized by a known peptide epitope. HC-B27 complexes were recognized by the conformation-...
متن کاملStructural relatedness of distinct determinants recognized by monoclonal antibody TP25.99 on beta 2-microglobulin-associated and beta 2-microglobulin-free HLA class I heavy chains.
The association of HLA class I heavy chains with beta2-microglobulin (beta2m) changes their antigenic profile. As a result, Abs react with either beta2m-free or beta2m-associated HLA class I heavy chains. An exception to this rule is the mAb TP25.99, which reacts with both beta2m-associated and beta2m-free HLA class I heavy chains. The reactivity with beta2m-associated HLA class I heavy chains ...
متن کاملSERUM IgE AND BETA 2 MICROGLOBULIN LEVELS AFTER MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
Serum IgE and beta 2 microglobulin levels were determined in 31 patients suffering from acute myocardial infarction and 30 patients with other forms of ischemic heart disease. The levels of these parameters were studied on the first, third and seventh day after the onset of disease. The immunological method used for the determinations was ELISA Patients with myocardial infarction showed an...
