a three-fold decrease of the in vitro ability of serum proteins to bind naproxen was shown in patients with cirrhosis of the liver compared to healthy individuals. this decrease was caused by quantitative changes in serum proteins in the sera of patients with liver damage. lower doses of naproxen are therefore suggested in the treatment of patients with liver dysfunction.

quantitative serum level measurements of gc , cp , c3 , igg , iga and 1gm were carried out on 102 patients with esophageal carcinoma following laryngectomy, in comparison with 66 healthy individuals as controls, in gonbad area, north east of iran. the procedure of radioinimuno-diffusion by standard m partigen plates was used for the measurements. a significant decrease was observed in gc level ...

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...

Blood serum has been extensively explored as a source of the bio-markers [1, 2].  For concentration of minor protein(s) and depletion of abundant blood serum proteins a 2,2,2-trichloroacetic acid (TCA) precipitation procedure is frequently applied [3]. However, a significant amount of proteins may be present in the TCA extracts, and these proteins are often not studied.Recently, we have sh...

Exsheathing fluid (EF) and excretory-secretory products (ES) of infective third-stage cultured larvae ofOstertagia circumcincta were analysed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDSPAGE). Five and seven predominant proteins were found in the EF and ES products, respectively. Immunoblotting by sheep pre-infection serum did not react with any of the EF and ES proteins, b...

nine lung hydatid cyst fluid of echinococcus granulosus species from man were analysed by electrophoresis. immunoelectrophoresis and biochemical tests. in addition respective sera of the- host were analysed for comparison. analysis revealed striking similarities in celfulose acetate and agarose gel electrophoretic and immunoelectro phoretic patterns of proteins from hydatid cyst fluid and the s...

in this study 19 blv infected and 2 healthy lymph nodes were analysed by western blotting to detect viral p 24 antigen . western blotting was carried out by rabbit anti p24 serum and p24 monoclonal antibody. rabbit serum in western blotting could detect 45, 50, 54, 58 and less than 19 kd bands of proteins and monoclonal antibody could detect 30, 32, 39, 45, 50 and 53 kd bands. our results indic...
