Quantitation of serum free light chains.
under usual artificial light conditions, and storage of unproc-essed whole blood without antico-agulants at room temperature on the bench. Additionally, we tested the effect of multiple freeze-thaw cycles. 25(OH)–vitamin D 3 measurements were performed on a Cobas E601 an-alyzer (Roche), using the vitamin D 3 (25-OH) assay as recommended by the manufacturer. Samples from each storage experiment ...
متن کاملRelationship between circulating syndecan-1 levels (CD138s) and serum free light chains in monoclonal gammopathies
BACKGROUND Monoclonal gammopathies encompass a wide range of diseases characterized by the monoclonal expansion of a B-cell clone. Despite emerging therapeutic strategies, chances of survival of patients who are affected are still scarce, which implies that new tools are necessary not only for the diagnosis but also for the follow-up of patients affected by such diseases. In this context, the u...
متن کاملMarkers of microbial translocation and risk of AIDS-related lymphoma.
BACKGROUND Depletion of gut-associated lymphocytes by HIV infection facilitates microbial translocation, which may contribute to non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) risk via chronic immune activation and B-cell hyperstimulation. METHOD We therefore examined associations of four microbial translocation markers with subsequent NHL risk in a case-control study nested within four prospective cohort studie...
متن کاملExpression of immunohistochemical markers in patients with AIDS-related lymphoma.
AIDS-related lymphomas (ARL) present high biological heterogeneity. For better characterization of this type of lymphoma, the objectives of the present study were to evaluate the expression of immunohistochemical markers of cell differentiation (CD10, Bcl-6, MUM-1) and determine cell origin profile according to Hans' classification of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in AIDS patients. This study i...
متن کاملCirculating nucleosomes as predictive markers of severe acute pancreatitis
BACKGROUND The components of nucleosomes, which contain DNA and histones, are released into the circulation from damaged cells and can promote inflammation. We studied whether the on-admission levels of circulating nucleosomes predict the development of severe acute pancreatitis (AP), in particular among the patients who present without clinical signs of organ dysfunction. METHODS This is a p...
