چکیده

Previous investigators have reported a change in distribution of serum protein fractions, as measured by the areas subtending the conventional electrophoresis curves, as a result of a change in ionic strength of the buffer (1) or as a result of a change in total protein concentration (1, 2). A similar effect of total protein concentration on the electrophoretic analysis of ovalbumin has been shown by Cann (3). Although the effects of buffer ionic strength, buffer species, and pH on mobility have been well known, little attention has been given to the effect of protein concentration and species on the electrophoretic mobility of proteins. Luetscher (4) suggested that mobility might increase with protein concentration, but this comment was not amplified. Longsworth and MacInnes (5), in a discussion of electrophoresis patterns, presented a table which showed a decrease in the mobility of ovalbumin with increased protein concentration. Alexander and Johnson (6) refer to an unpublished qualitative observation (Johnson and Shooter, 1946) that protein mobility decreased with an increase in protein concentration. In a recent, paper on another subject, Alberty and Marvin (7) presented a table which showed a 10 per cent decrease in the mobility of bovine serum albumin at pH 7.0 as the protein concentration increased from 2 to 8 per cent. Our attention was called to this subject in the course of an experiment with rats which had been given nephrotoxic globulin to produce experimental nephritis. Analysis of sera from these animals suggested an apparent relation between the mobility of serum albumin and severity of

بررسی ترکیبات گلیکوزیله نهایی آلبومین سرم (AGE) در افراد دیابتی به روش ایزوالکتریک فوکوسینگ (IEF) و فلورسانس جهت ارزیابی پیشرفت بیماری دیابت

Background: The non-enzymatic glycosylation (NEG) of proteins in diabetes damages both the structure and function of these proteins. In vivo and in vitro studies have shown that NEG of proteins and advanced glycosylation end-products (AGE) contribute to the pathogenesis of both macrovascular, such as atherosclerosis, and microvascular complications, such as retinopathy and nephropathy, in diabe...

Effect of water salinity on total protein and electrophoretic pattern of serum proteins of grass carp, Ctenopharyngodon idella

In this study the effects of water salinity on serum total protein and its components in grass carp were investigated. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of salinity tolerance of fish on total serum protein level and its components as an indicator of liver and kidney activity. One hundred and twenty grass carp were divided into four groups, randomly. The first three groups were r...

Relationship of Serum and Urinary Proteins in Neoplastic States: a Preliminary Survey.

Twenty-four-hour urine specimens from patients with and without malignancies were concentrated by dialysis. The electrophoretic mobility of the urine protein components was compared with that of the respective serum proteins. Control values were similar to those established in the literature. Urinary protein concentrations found in malignant states were higher. Generally, there is a positive co...

CHARACTERIZATION OF HIGH MOBILITY GROUP NONHISTONE PROTEINS FROM DIFFERENTIATED NEUROPHILIC GRANULOCYTES

The quantitative changes of the high mobility group (HMG) nonhistone chromosomal proteins in nondividing, differentiated peritoneal exudate neutrophils were identified by their solubility, electrophoretic mobility on both SDS and acetic acid gels, densitometric traces and elution profile on CM-sephadex. The results indicated that in neutrophils, HMGl undergoes a considerable reduction (80%...
