Increased urinary beta 2-microglobulin in cadmium exposure: dose-effect relationship and biological significance of beta 2-microglobulin.
A study on the general population from both cadmium-polluted and control areas and on cadmium alloy workers indicates that beta 2-MG in urine is very closely correlated with aging, but it indicates an association with cadmium exposure. However, the age factor is stronger than cadmium exposre in both polluted and control areas among persons without clinical proteinuria. On the other hand, cadmiu...
متن کاملBeta-2-microglobulin expression in the liver after liver transplantation.
The distribution of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class 1 antigens was studied in the liver after transplantation by immunoperoxidase staining for beta-2-microglobulin (beta 2m), a subunit of the class 1 antigen system. Paraffin wax sections were examined from 25 "time zero" biopsy specimens, taken immediately after insertion of the graft, and 87 biopsy specimens taken after transplant...
متن کاملMultidrug resistance in tumour cells: characterization of the multidrug resistant cell line K562-Lucena 1.
Multidrug resistance to chemotherapy is a major obstacle in the treatment of cancer patients. The best characterised mechanism responsible for multidrug resistance involves the expression of the MDR-1 gene product, P-glycoprotein. However, the resistance process is multifactorial. Studies of multidrug resistance mechanisms have relied on the analysis of cancer cell lines that have been selected...
متن کاملBeta-2-Microglobulin in Autism Spectrum Disorders
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are heterogeneous neurodevelopmental diseases of unknown etiology. There are no biological markers for ASD and current diagnosis is based on behavioral criteria. Recent data has shown that MHC I, a compound involved in adaptive immune function, is also involved in neurodevelopment, synaptic plasticity and behavior. It has been suggested that altered MHC I express...
متن کاملSERUM IgE AND BETA 2 MICROGLOBULIN LEVELS AFTER MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
Serum IgE and beta 2 microglobulin levels were determined in 31 patients suffering from acute myocardial infarction and 30 patients with other forms of ischemic heart disease. The levels of these parameters were studied on the first, third and seventh day after the onset of disease. The immunological method used for the determinations was ELISA Patients with myocardial infarction showed an...
