Acute-phase proteins: As diagnostic tool

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences, 2011
The varied reactions of the host to infection, inflammation, or trauma are collectively known as the acute-phase response and encompass a wide range of pathophysiological responses such as pyrexia, leukocytosis, hormone alterations, and muscle protein ...

Acute Phase Proteins in Psoriasis [PDF]

open access: yesCollegium antropologicum, 2009
Psoriasis is a chronic, relapsing, inflammatory and hyperproliferative skin disorder. The levels of acute phase proteins are suggested to be elevated in those patients with acute disease. The expression of selected acute phase proteins as the parameters of humoral immunity has been analyzed in 70 patients with acute psoriasis and 40 healthy controls ...

Involution of the mouse mammary gland is associated with an immune cascade and an acute-phase response, involving LBP, CD14 and STAT3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
INTRODUCTION: Involution of the mammary gland is a complex process of controlled apoptosis and tissue remodelling. The aim of the project was to identify genes that are specifically involved in this process.

Acute phase reaction and acute phase proteins [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Zhejiang University-SCIENCE B, 2005
A review of the systemic acute phase reaction with major cytokines involved, and the hepatic metabolic changes, negative and positive acute phase proteins (APPs) with function and associated pathology is given. It appears that APPs represent appropriate analytes for assessment of animal health.

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

open access: yesNature 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

open access: yesMolecules, 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

CD14 Is an Acute-Phase Protein [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2004
Abstract The origin of soluble CD14 (sCD14) in the circulation is uncertain. To examine whether CD14 could be an acute-phase protein (APP), the levels of sCD14, IL-6, and C-reactive protein were determined by ELISA in serum and synovial fluid (SF) of patients with various arthropathies, and the regulation of CD14 synthesis was examined ...

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...
