Human L-Ficolin (Ficolin-2) and Its Clinical Significance
Human L-ficolin (P35, ficolin-2) is synthesised in the liver and secreted into the bloodstream where it is one of the major pattern recognition molecules of plasma/serum. Like other ficolins, it consists of a collagen-like tail region linked to a fibrinogen-related globular head; a basic triplet subunit arises via a collagen-like triple helix, and this then forms higher multimers (typically a 1...
متن کاملSoluble CD30 in Normal Pregnancy Pre-Eclampsia and Recurrent Pregnancy Loss
Background: Normal pregnancy is thought to be dependent on Th2 deviation, while Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL) and Pre-eclampsia (PE) appear to be biased toward the Th1 immune response. It is believed that the soluble form of CD30 (sCD30) is an index of Th2 immune response or modulator of Th1/Th2 responses. Objective: The aim of this study was determination of the sCD30 level in RPL and PE pati...
متن کاملEvaluation of Ficolin-3 (FCN3) 1637delC (rs28357092) Frameshift Mutation in Iranian Type 2 Diabetic Subjects
Background and Aims: Ficolins are proteins that bind to carbohydrates, act as opsonins and play an important role in innate immunity. Polymorphism in ficolin-3 gene (FCN3) can lead to complement deficiency and increase the risk of some disorders such as diabetes. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of FCN3+1637delC as a single nucleotide polymorphism in this gene in healthy a...
متن کاملThe vascular endothelium in normal pregnancy and pre-eclampsia.
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy affect up to 15% of pregnancies and the most severe form, pre-eclampsia, is the leading cause of maternal death in the UK today. Pre-eclampsia is a multisystem disorder affecting virtually every organ and system in the body, with hypertension and proteinuria, the traditional diagnostic features, representing two facets of a complex pathophysiological process....
متن کاملAlterations of serum resistin in normal pregnancy and pre-eclampsia.
Resistin is expressed in human placenta and has been postulated to play a role in regulating energy metabolism in pregnancy. However, changes in serum resistin levels in normal pregnancy and in the setting of pre-eclampsia are far from understood. The purpose of the present study was to clarify the alterations in serum resistin level in normal pregnancy and pre-eclampsia. Blood samples were tak...
