Evaluation of acute phase response in blood and milk samples of healthy holstein cattle in the postpartum period [PDF]

Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2022
Normally, birth triggers an acute phase response (APR). In particular, interleukins and proinfl ammatory cytokines released from activated leukocytes at the site of tissue damage stimulate APR.

Biological significance of C-reactive protein, the ancient acute phase functionary

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
C-reactive protein (CRP) is one of the major members of the family of acute phase proteins (APP). Interest in this CRP was the result of a seminal discovery of its pattern of response to pneumococcal infection in humans.

Breakdown of supersaturation barrier links protein folding to amyloid formation

Communications Biology, 2021
Noji et al. test link between protein folding and misfolding upon heating and agitation. They show that folding and amyloid formation are separated by the supersaturation barrier of a protein, breakdown of which shifts the protein to the amyloid pathway.

Protein Electrophoresis and Haptoglobin Values for Captive Bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus)

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
Serum samples collected from 37 clinically normal bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus) and 13 abnormal bongo were tested using assays for acute-phase proteins (APPs) and by protein electrophoresis. Abnormal bongo samples (n = 27) had significantly higher levels

Comparison of Protein Carbonyl (PCO), Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) and C-Reactive Protein (CRP) as Diagnostic and Prognostic Markers of Septic Inflammation in Dogs

Veterinary Sciences, 2021
Reliable diagnostic and prognostic markers of sepsis are lacking, but essential in veterinary medicine. We aimed to assess the accuracy of C-Reactive Protein (CRP), protein carbonyls (PCO) and paraoxonase-1 (PON1) in differentiating dogs with sepsis from

Acute-phase proteins: As a diagnostic tool in pneumonic dromedary Camel

SVU-International Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2021
Determining the health of animals is important. So, acute-phase proteins consider as important markers of animal health. The acute-phase response is characterized by increased circulating levels of acute-phase proteins released by the liver.

Antibody Response to SARS-CoV-2 Membrane Protein in Patients of the Acute and Convalescent Phase of COVID-19

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Understanding the course of the antibody response directed to individual epitopes of SARS-CoV-2 proteins is crucial for serological assays and establishment of vaccines. Twenty-one synthetic peptides were synthesized that have ten amino acids overlap and

A Clinical Investigation on Serum Amyloid A Concentration in Client-Owned Healthy and Diseased Cats in a Primary Care Animal Hospital

Veterinary Sciences, 2020
Although measurement of serum amyloid A (SAA) concentration in client-owned cats has already been shown to be clinically useful, limited data are available on common diseases at primary care hospitals.
