Acute phase reaction to gadolinium-DTPA in dialysis patients [PDF]
Several late sequelae of the administration of gadolinium (Gd)-containing MRI contrast agents have been described in patients with advanced renal failure. In an observational series, we found a remarkable frequency of peracute reactions after administration of Gd-DTPA used for cardiovascular evaluation before renal transplantation.In a 26-month ...

Effects of dialyser and dialysate on the acute phase reaction in clinical bicarbonate dialysis [PDF]
In chronic haemodialysis (HD), morbidity may result from repetitive induction of the acute phase response, caused by a bioincompatible dialysis membrane and/or contaminated dialysate. In the present study, cytokine release (interleukin-6, IL-6) and subsequent production of acute phase proteins (C-reactive protein, CRP and secretory phospholipase A(2 ...

Activin A and follistatin: their role in the acute phase reaction and inflammation [PDF]
The activins are a family of proteins which consist of disulphide-linked homodimers and heterodimers of the â subunits of inhibin termed âA and âB. These three proteins, called activin A (âA-âA), activin B (âB-âB) and activin AB (âA-âB), are members of the transforming growth factor â (TGFâ) super-family of proteins (de Kretser & Robertson 1989 ...

Change in body temperature, not acute-phase reaction, predict anti-Osteoporosis efficacy after the first administration of Zoledronic acid: a prospective observational cohort study [PDF]
Background Acute-phase reactions (APRs) are common among people treated for the first time with zoledronate (ZOL). The current view is that both the APRs caused by ZOL and its efficacy are related to the mevalonic acid pathway.

Plasma cholesterol homeostasis, HDL remodeling and function during the acute phase reaction[S]
Acute phase reaction (APR) is a systemic inflammation triggered by several conditions associated with lipid profile alterations. We evaluated whether APR also associates with changes in cholesterol synthesis and absorption, HDL structure, composition ...

Astrogliosis following spinal cord injury (SCI) was considered as a negative factor for neural regeneration. We found that miR-21 was significantly upregulated after SCI. So, we aim to determine whether miR-21 acts in a positive manner post SCI. In vitro,

IMMUNOLOGIC CROSS-REACTIONS AMONG MAMMALIAN ACUTE PHASE PROTEINS [PDF]
Crystalline rabbit Cx-reactive protein has been compared immunologically with the analogous crystalline C-reactive protein of man. Immunologic cross-reactivity has been demonstrated between the acute phase proteins of man, rabbit, and monkey. Double-diffusion reactions in agar and passive cutaneous anaphylaxis reactions in
