Serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and resistin are associated with dengue infection in adults
BACKGROUND Dengue is a major health problem in tropical areas, including Taiwan. Dengue virus infection affects various types of cells and results in elevation of serum inflammatory molecules. Because these molecules may be associated with dengue virus infection, the aim of this study was to identify novel molecules in febrile patients with dengue infection. In addition, we determined whether t...

متن کاملLevel of serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin in childhood asthma.
BACKGROUND The role of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in childhood asthma remains unknown. This study aimed to measure the serum levels of NGAL in children with asthma and to investigate the correlation between NGAL and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1), a good indicator of airway remodeling in children with asthma. METHODS This prospective, cross-sectional study w...
متن کاملNeutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin and Kidney Diseases
Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) has emerged as one of the most promising biomarkers of renal epithelial injury. Numerous studies have presented the diagnostic and prognostic utility of urinary and plasma NGAL in patients with acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, renal injury after kidney transplantation, and other renal diseases. NGAL is a member of the lipocalin famil...
متن کاملNeutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin Levels During Pneumoperitoneum
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES A temporary deterioration in renal function during pneumoperitoneum has been reported, but the extent is not known. A new marker for the early detection of renal injury, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), has been shown to increase in various conditions that affect renal function. This study was conducted to explore detrimental effects of pneumoperitone...
