Circulating growth arrest-specific protein 6 levels are associated with erythropoietin resistance in hemodialysis patients
Growth arrest-specific protein 6 (Gas6) works synergistically with erythropoietin (EPO) to increase the proliferation and maturation of erythroblasts. However, the role of Gas 6 levels on EPO resistance in hemodialysis (HD) patients remains unclear. Therefore, the objective of this study was the first to examine the correlation between plasma Gas6 levels and EPO resistance in HD patients. We en...
متن کاملSerum sex hormone and growth arrest-specific protein 6 levels in male patients with coronary heart disease
Epidemiological studies have shown a high prevalence of low serum testosterone levels in men with cardiovascular disease. Moreover, the tyrosine kinase receptor Axl, the ligand of which is growth arrest-specific protein 6 (GAS6), is expressed in the vasculature, and serum GAS6 levels are associated with endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular events. Testosterone regulates GAS6 gene transcri...
متن کاملGrowth arrest-specific gene 6 (Gas6) levels are elevated in patients with chronic renal failure.
BACKGROUND The TAM receptors (tyro3, axl and mer) and their ligands (vitamin K-dependent proteins-Gas6 and Protein S) are crucial modulators of inflammation, which may be relevant in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Gas6 and axl have multiple roles in mediating vascular atherosclerosis and injury, thrombosis and inflammation, yet nothing is known about the Gas6-axl pathway in humans with CKD. Give...
متن کاملA distinct serum protein pattern in patients with paranoid schizophrenia
Introduction: Schizophrenia is a chronic mental illness, whose aetiology is still unclear; therefore, information about differences in serum protein patterns may improve the understanding of the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. The goal of this study was to use the proteomic approach to identify altered protein levels in the serum samples from patients with schizophrenia. Methods: Blood wa...
متن کاملGrowth arrest-specific protein 6 plasma concentrations during septic shock
INTRODUCTION The product of growth arrest-specific gene 6 (Gas6) is a vitamin K dependent protein that is secreted by leucocytes and endothelial cells in response to injury and participates in cell survival, proliferation, migration and adhesion. Our purpose was to investigate plasma Gas6 concentration and its relation to organ dysfunction in patients with septic shock. METHODS Forty-five pat...
