Carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) is a descriptive term used for a temporary change in the transferrin glycosylation profile caused by alcohol, and used as a biomarker of chronic high alcohol consumption. The use of an array of methods for measurement of CDT in various absolute or relative amounts, and sometimes covering different transferrin glycoforms, has complicated the comparability...
In the diagnosis of alcohol abuse transferrin (Tf) allelic D variants generate false-positive test results for carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) as assessed by their electrophoretic migration patterns. The predominant Tf C1 allele encodes a protein for which the most prevalent isoform has a pI of 5.4, i.e., four sialic acids and two bound ion molecules. Carriers of allele D encode Tfs wi...
BACKGROUND The need for equivalent results of routine measurement procedures for the alcohol biomarker carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) has been recognized by the IFCC. This article describes a project to harmonize CDT as conducted by an IFCC working group initiated for this purpose. METHODS We used procedures for achieving harmonization as developed by the Consortium for Harmonizatio...
BACKGROUND Carbohydrate Deficient Transferrin (CDT) is a new alcohol biomarker recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration for alcohol screening. Limited information is available on the economic benefits of alcohol biomarkers. Our objective was to conduct a cost-benefit analysis (CBA) of the CDT test in a primary care sample of patients being treated for diabetes and hypertension. M...
Stauber et al. (1995) claim in the Abstract and Discussion of their paper to have demonstrated the superior sensitivity of carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) to gamma-glutamyltransferase (gamma-GT) for the detection of alcohol abuse in patients with liver disease. This claim is, however, derived from a study of 93 patients, only 13 of whom consumed alcohol in excess. The sensitivity of CD...
BACKGROUND carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) is a marker of alcohol intake that is used for detecting or monitoring alcohol-use disorders. The introduction of a new direct immunoassay for CDT justifies reevaluation of test performance and reexamination of factors affecting test diagnostic sensitivity and specificity. METHODS individuals enrolled in twin/family studies of alcohol use an...
Characterization of proteins by capillary electro-phoresis in fused-silica columns: review on serum protein analysis and application to immunoassays. Capillary Electrophoresis of serum proteins. Reproducibility, comparison with agarose gel electrophoresis and a review of the literature. Multicenter evaluation of the Paragon CZE 2000 capillary zone electrophore-sis system for serum protein elect...
Serum carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) is a specific and comparatively sensitive marker of excessive alcohol use; however, reports of its sensitivity vary according to the population or patient groups studied and their average alcohol intake. We have characterized the dose-response curve between alcohol intake and CDT concentrations in a study of 1400 men and women from a community-base...
An experimental system has been developed which allows the identification of intermediates in the abscisic acid (ABA) signal transduction pathway leading to desiccation tolerance in plants. Desiccation tolerance in callus of the resurrection plant Craterostigma plantagineum is mediated via the plant hormone ABA, which induces the expression of gene products related to desiccation tolerance. Bas...
The striatum controls behavior in two ways: facilitation and suppression through the direct and indirect pathways, respectively. However, it is still unclear what information is processed in these pathways. To address this question, we studied two pathways originating from the primate caudate tail (CDt). We found that the CDt innervated the caudal-dorsal-lateral part of the substantia nigra par...
