Complex of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A and the proform of eosinophil major basic protein. Disulfide structure and carbohydrate attachment.
Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) is a metzincin superfamily metalloproteinase responsible for cleavage of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-4, thus causing release of bound insulin-like growth factor. PAPP-A is secreted as a dimer of 400 kDa but circulates in pregnancy as a disulfide-bound 500-kDa 2:2 complex with the proform of eosinophil major basic protein (pro-MBP), r...
متن کاملPregnancy-associated plasma protein A and proform eosinophilic major basic protein in the detection of different types of coronary artery disease.
Kryptor system was proven to be a rapid, standard method for pregnancy-associated plasma protein A and proform eosinophilic major basic protein (PAPP-A/proMBP) complex detection in coronary artery disease (CAD). No age and/or gender differences in 51 controls and 110 stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) patients were found. SCAD patients did not differ from controls and no difference in PAPP-A...

Increases of plasma eosinophil major basic protein levels late in pregnancy predict onset of labor.
Major basic protein (MBP), the core of the eosinophil granule, is a potent toxin for parasites and mammalian cells; it also causes histamine release from mast cells and basophils. Plasma levels of MBP are increased in all pregnant women, and MBP has been localized by immunofluorescence to placental X cells and placental-site giant cells. Analyses of plasma MBP levels during pregnancy showed a s...
متن کاملQuantification and characterization of pregnancy-associated complexes of angiotensinogen and the proform of eosinophil major basic protein in serum and amniotic fluid.
BACKGROUND The proform of eosinophil major basic protein (ProMBP) exists in serum from pregnant women complexed with a variable fraction of angiotensinogen (Ang). A subfraction further binds complement C3dg in a 2:2:2 complex. The function, physiology, and clinical importance of ProMBP complexes are unknown, and the specific quantification of these complexes has not been possible. METHODS We ...
