Glycation of Human IgG Induces Structural Alterations Leading to Changes in its Interaction with Anti-IgG
Background: Glycation of proteins is a non-enzymatic spontaneous process that occurs in diabetes mellitus and aging, altering the structure and function of proteins. IgG undergoes glycation leading to changes in its reactivity to antigen and fixation of complement. Objective: This study aimed at revealing the effect of glycation on the interaction of IgG with anti-IgG using electroimmunoassay...
متن کاملEffects of cholesterol on lipid organization in human erythrocyte membrane
The molar ratio of cholesterol to phospholipid (C/P) in human erythrocyte membrane is modified by incubating the cells with liposomes of various C/P ratios. The observed increase in cell surface area may be accounted for by the addition of cholesterol molecules. Fusion between liposomes and cells or attachment of liposomes to cells is not a significant factor in the alteration of C/P ratio. Ons...
متن کاملCholesterol sulfate in human physiology: what's it all about?
Cholesterol sulfate is quantitatively the most important known sterol sulfate in human plasma, where it is present in a concentration that overlaps that of the other abundant circulating steroid sulfate, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) sulfate. Although these sulfolipids have similar production and metabolic clearance rates, they arise from distinct sources and are metabolized by different pathwa...
متن کاملThe Changes of Erythrocyte Indices in Pesticide Factory Workers
Abstract Background and Objectives: Erythrocyte indices are helpful for monitoring the erythrocyte synthesis and liver condition. The pesticide factories’ staff are being exposed to poisoning. This article aims to evaluate the effect of pesticides on blood indices of subjects which are exposed to organophosphate toxins. Material and Methods: This cohort study was conducted on the 63 emplo...
متن کاملChanges in erythrocyte aggregation and deformability during human ageing*
CURRENT SCIENCE, VOL. 82, NO. 2, 25 JANUARY 2002 191 *This paper is dedicated to Dr. R. Natarajan For correspondence. (e-mail: [email protected]) tuitum and M. parafortuitum have three clusters of mycolic acid peaks. The majority of the test isolates were identified as M. terrae, which has only two clusters, similar to M. diernhoferi. The good agreement between our HPLC results and thos...
