abstract

endothelial dysfunction is thought to be a central pathogenic feature in preeclampsia on the basis of elevated adhesion molecules. soluble forms of these molecules can be detected in plasma, and their concentrations are thought to reflect the degree of activation of a particular cell type. the aim of the present study was to compare the levels of soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (svcam-1) in sera of normal and preeclamptic pregnancies. a cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the plasma concentrations of svcam-1 in peripheral blood obtained from normal pregnant women (n=40), mild preeclampsia (n=37) and severe preeclampsia (n=38). concentrations of soluble adhesion molecule was determined with enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (elisa). serum concentration of svcam-1 was significantly higher in severe preeclampsia (p

Levels of serum vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 in measles.

While the levels of serum vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) have been investigated in many diseases, they have not, to our knowledge, been studied in patients with measles. Serum VCAM-1 and creatinine levels were determined in six adolescent and adult Japanese patients with measles in the acute febrile phase and defervescent afebrile phase. Serum VCAM-1 levels were significantly higher...

A Comparative Study of Serum Level of Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1(ICAM-1) and High Sensitive C - reactive protein (hs-CRP) in Normal and Pre-eclamptic Pregnancies

OBJECTIVE(S) Pre-eclampsia is characterized by hypertension, dyslipidemia, and increased systemic inflammatory response and has been associated with an increased maternal risk of cardiovascular disease later in life. Endothelial dysfunction is thought to be a central pathogenic feature in pre-eclampsia on the basis of elevated adhesion molecules. The aim of this study was to determine the level...

Radiation-induced expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 in cerebral endothelial cells

Background: Radiation-induced molecular changes on the endothelial surface of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM) may be used as markers for specific vascular targeting agents. In this study, we examined the level of expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) on brain endothelial cell surface after radiation treatment, with the aim of targeting the radiation-induc...
