Serum prealbumin and its changes over time are associated with mortality in acute kidney injury
Serum prealbumin is a clinically relevant indicator of nutritional status and inflammation in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). This study aimed to determine whether serum prealbumin and its longitudinal changes over a week could improve the prediction of 90-day mortality in AKI patients. This prospective cohort study included 340 adults with AKI between 2014 and 2015. There were 94 (27....
متن کاملThe interaction of thyroxine with human plasma prealbumin and with the prealbumin-retinol-binding protein complex.
Prealbumin was isolated from human plasma by chromatography on columns of diethylaminoethyl Sephadex and Sephadex G-200, followed by preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The prealbumin was homogeneous in the analytical ultracentrifuge with an s=z~,~ of 3.7 S and with a molecular weight of about 50,000. Prealbumin formed a protein-protein complex with plasma retinol-binding protein in...
متن کاملPrealbumin: its association with amyloid.
In recent years prealbumin has been shown to be a major component of two forms of systemic amyloid, senile systemic amyloid (SSA), and familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (FAP). Despite the fact that the amyloid fibril proteins associated with these two forms of amyloid, designated ASc1 and AF, respectively, share many similarities the clinical features of the two diseases are remarkably differ...
متن کاملA Prealbumin Activator of Prekallikrein
Activation of a plasma fraction containing unactivated Hageman factor and prekallikrein followed by chromatography of this fraction on DEAE-cellulose revealed four peaks having bradykinin-generating activity. Peak 1 contained kallikrein; peaks 2-3, 4, and 5 each contained prekallikrein-activating activity. Elution of peaks 2-3, 4, and 5 from disc gels after electrophoresis at pH 9.3 revealed pe...
متن کاملLow prealbumin levels are independently associated with higher mortality in patients on peritoneal dialysis
BACKGROUND Prealbumin, a sensitive marker for protein-energy status, is also known as an independent risk factor for mortality in hemodialysis patients. We investigated the impact of prealbumin on survival in incident peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. METHODS In total, 136 incident PD patients (mean age, 53.0 ± 15.8 years) between 2002 and 2007 were enrolled in the study. Laboratory data, di...
