Acute Phase Proteins as Cancer Biomarkers [PDF]

, 2011
Interactions between tumor cells and the host microenvironment have been shown to play a significant role in the initiation, progression, and invasiveness of human cancer. The complex changes in the tumor microenvironment have been shown to modulate the activation of the different arms of the host immune system including the acute phase response. Acute

Characterization of Acute-Phase Proteins (Apps) [PDF]

, 2012
Upon Injury, a complex biological response of tissues is initiated to protect the organism and remove the injurious stimuli then trigger the healing process. Inflammation is a part of this complex response. The local response to tissue injury or infection is acute inflammation. Without inflammation, wounds and infections would never heal. This response

Acute Phase Proteins and Their Role in Periodontitis: A Review [PDF]

JOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTIC RESEARCH, 2015
Acute phase proteins are a class of proteins whose plasma concentration increase (positive acute phase proteins) or decrease (negative acute phase proteins) in response to inflammation. This response is called as the acute phase reaction, also called as acute phase response, which occurs approximately 90 minutes after the onset of a systemic ...

Plasmin activity promotes amyloid deposition in a transgenic model of human transthyretin amyloidosis

Nature Communications, 2021
ATTR amyloidosis causes heart failure through the accumulation of misfolded transthyretin in cardiac muscle. Here the authors report a mouse model of ATTR amyloidosis and demonstrate the involvement of protease activity in ATTR amyloid deposition.

Clinical Amyloid Typing by Proteomics: Performance Evaluation and Data Sharing between Two Centres

Molecules, 2021
Amyloidosis is a relatively rare human disease caused by the deposition of abnormal protein fibres in the extracellular space of various tissues, impairing their normal function. Proteomic analysis of patients’ biopsies, developed by Dogan and colleagues

Amyloid Formation by Globular Proteins: The Need to Narrow the Gap Between in Vitro and in Vivo Mechanisms

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
The globular to fibrillar transition of proteins represents a key pathogenic event in the development of amyloid diseases. Although systemic amyloidoses share the common characteristic of amyloid deposition in the extracellular matrix, they are ...

Calcium Binds to Transthyretin with Low Affinity

Biomolecules, 2022
The plasma protein transthyretin (TTR), a transporter for thyroid hormones and retinol in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid, is responsible for the second most common type of systemic (ATTR) amyloidosis either in its wild type form or as a result of ...

Disease progression in cardiac transthyretin amyloidosis is indicated by serial calculation of National Amyloidosis Centre transthyretin amyloidosis stage

ESC Heart Failure, 2020
Aims Cardiac transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR‐CM) is a progressive and fatal condition. Prognosis can be determined at diagnosis according to the National Amyloidosis Centre (NAC) transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) stage.
