Murine serum glycoprotein gp70 behaves as an acute phase reactant
A single intraperitoneal injection of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or its lipid A component induced high levels of glycoprotein, gp70, in sera of several strains of mice within 24 h. This serum gp70 response induced by LPS was independent of the activation of B cells and the presence of T cells. However, serological and immunohistochemical studies demonstrated the production of gp70 by he...

متن کاملIschemia Modified Albumin as an Acute - Phase Reactant
mean concentration of 0.63 mmol/L, is a powerful acute phase reactant as it changes dramatically during vascular injury and inflammatory processes5. Albumin acts as a buffering agent for endogenous or exogenous toxic molecules due to its various ligands binding ability4,5. The biochemical mechanisms modifying the amino-terminal region of albumin during ischemia are unclear, but reperfusion afte...
متن کاملLipoprotein (a) as an acute phase reactant in patients on chronic hemodialysis.
Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)], is an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in patients on chronic hemodialysis. A low concentration of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and serum albumin are another potential risk factors. The purpose of this study was to explore in patients on chronic hemodialysis, whether Lp(a) elevated levels are influenced by activated acut...
متن کاملB Cell Activating Factor of the Tumor Necrosis Factor Family (BAFF) Behaves as an Acute Phase Reactant in Acute Pancreatitis
OBJECTIVE To determine if B cell activating factor of the tumor necrosis factor family (BAFF) acts as an acute phase reactant and predicts severity of acute pancreatitis. METHODS 40 patients with acute pancreatitis were included in this single center cohort pilot study. Whole blood and serum was analyzed on day of admission and nine consecutive days for BAFF, c-reactive protein (CRP), interle...
