Angiotensinogen is an acute-phase protein in man
Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 1987Accumulating information concerning the structure of angiotensinogen suggests a resemblance of this component of the renin-angiotensin system to the acute-phase protein alpha 1-antitrypsin. Compared to a group of age- and sex-matched controls without signs of infection, markedly elevated levels of angiotensinogen (increase in median value: 70%), alpha ...

Acute phase proteins in salmonids: evolutionary analyses and acute phase response.
The Journal of Immunology, 1997Abstract Inflammation induces dramatic changes in the biosynthetic profile of the liver, leading to increased serum concentrations of positive acute phase (AP) proteins and decreased concentrations of negative AP proteins. Serum amyloid A (SAA) and the pentraxins C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum amyloid P component (SAP) are major AP ...

Many diseases demonstrate an inflammatory process which involves plasma proteins termed acute phase proteins. Fluctuations in serum levels of these proteins are now being utilised to assess diseases which involve inflammation and tissue damage. They are a useful indicator in detection, diagnosis and treatment of such diseases.

The Negative Acute Phase Proteins
2020The latter proteins have become known as the negative acute phase proteins. An acute phase response can be readily and reproducibly induced in experimental rats by subcutaneous injection of a small amount of mineral turpentine to produce a transient acute inflammation.

Bovine and canine acute phase proteins
Veterinary Research Communications, 1988Acute phase proteins are serum proteins which increase in concentration during the acute phase response to inflammation or infection. The response occurs in all animals, but in different species the response of individual proteins can be significantly different.

In summary, therefore, the acute-phase protein response is a multiple misnomer. Many of these molecules are associated more closely with chronic than with acute inflammation; only some have been shown to be phasic (indeed, the physiological control of biosynthesis of these molecules is a field wide open to exploration), and some are peptides rather ...

Acute phase proteins and pesticide exposure
Life Sciences, 1976Abstract Gamma mobility C-reactive protein (CRP) level was determined in the sera of persons occupationally exposed to pesticides and controls in conjunction with serum protein analysis and other biochemical and enzymologic tests. Workers chronically exposed to dieldrin and pentachlorophenol showed significantly higher prevalence of CRP than the ...

Acute phase proteins in major depression
Journal of Psychosomatic Research, 1997Extensive evidence exists associating depression with changes in the immune system. The present study evaluates the levels of complement components C3 and C4, C-reactive proteins, and IL-6 in patients who met DSM-III-R diagnostic criteria for major depressive disorder, as well as controls.

Biological Variation of Acute Phase Proteins
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry: International Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 1993The analytical, within-subject and between-subject components of variation were estimated for serum albumin, transthyretin, α1-acid glycoprotein, α1-antichymotrypsin, haptoglobin, β2-microglobulin and C-reactive protein in a cohort of 19 apparently healthy subjects over 20 weeks.

Fetuin: an acute phase protein in cattle
Journal of Comparative Physiology B, 1992Fetuin is a plasma protein present in high concentrations during fetal development in animals of the order Artiodactyla. Its role is not known. The human homologue of fetuin--alpha 2HS glycoprotein--has been shown to be a negative acute phase protein in adult plasma. In the present study, the concentration of fetuin was measured in the serum of healthy
