Assessment of Serum Ceruloplasmin Levels in Gingivitis, Chronic and Aggressive Periodontitis Patients- A Clinico-Biochemical Study [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2018
Introduction: Pro-inflammatory mediators are mainly responsible for periodontal tissue breakdown in periodontitis. Ceruloplasmin is one such biomarker, the levels of which seems to be elevated in presence of inflammation.

Ceruloplasmin in Wilson's Disease* [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1967
Ceruloplasmin was highly purified from one patient with Wilson's disease and partially purified from a second unrelated patient. The highly purified ceruloplasmin was indistinguishable from normal ceruloplasmin by electrophoresis, tryptic peptide map, oxidase activity, and copper, amino acid, and sugar composition.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

A case of autoimmune hepatitis in a patient with inflammatory bowel disease and significant lymphadenopathy in the porta hepatis

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract The diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is supported by the presence of elevated transaminases, hypergammaglobulinemia, liver biopsy consistent with AIH, and the presence of AIH autoantibodies. In this case presentation, we highlight the challenges associated with diagnosing AIH in a patient with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who ...

Hepatopulmonary syndrome as presentation of pediatric metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Childhood obesity is rising and leading to serious co‐morbidities, among which is metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) predisposing individuals to cirrhosis. We describe a young 11‐year‐old Hispanic male who presented with hepatopulmonary syndrome secondary to cirrhotic portal hypertension from metabolic dysfunction‐

Protein glycosylation in lung cancer from a mass spectrometry perspective

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Lung cancer is a severe disease for which better diagnostic and therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. Increasing evidence implies that aberrant protein glycosylation plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis and progression of lung cancer.

Alteration of ceruloplasmin in patients with malaria: a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies

Malaria Journal
Background The evidences of oxidative stress-related Plasmodium infection may alter the ceruloplasmin levels were inconsistent. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to collate and synthesize literatures on malaria and ceruloplasmin ...

Temperature Dependence of Paramagnetic Species in the Human Brain Tissue: An X‐Band EPR Study

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Paramagnetic ions are distributed throughout the human brain. The increased accumulation of these metals, such as iron and copper, can induce cellular death and the development of neurological diseases. Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) is a spectroscopic technique capable of detecting these ions in a given biological sample ...

The Role of Ceruloplasmin in Neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s Disease

Türk Nöroloji Dergisi, 2016
Objective: Oxidative stress has been implicated to play a major role in the neuronal cell death in idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (IPD). Ceruloplasmin is a ferroxidase that oxidizes toxic ferrous iron to its nontoxic ferric form and thus helps prevent ...
