Aceruloplasminemia is a monogenic disease caused by mutations in the ceruloplasmin gene that result in loss of protein ferroxidase activity. Ceruloplasmin plays a role in iron homeostasis, and its activity impairment leads to iron accumulation in liver ...

Obesity and cancer: existing and new hypotheses for a causal connection [PDF]
Existing explanations of obesity-associated cancer emphasise direct mutagenic effects of dietary components or hormonal imbalance. Some of these hypotheses are reviewed briefly, but recent evidence suggests a major role for chronic inflammation in cancer

LPS modulates the expression of iron-related immune genes in two Antarctic notothenoids [PDF]
The non-specific immunity can induce iron deprivation as a defense mechanism against potential bacterial pathogens, but little information is available as to its role in Antarctic fish.

Effect of Antibiotics, Anesthetics, Sugars and Saltson The Oxidation Activity of Human Ceruloplasmin in vitro [PDF]
The optimum conditions for Ceruloplasmin (CP) activity have been measured in serum samples of a healthy individual without any detectable diseases. CP activity was evaluated by measurement of its p-phenylenediamine oxidase activity. This study showed the

Ceruloplasmin expression by human peripheral blood lymphocytes: a new link between immunity and iron metabolism [PDF]
Ceruloplasmin (CP) is a multicopper oxidase involved in the acute phase reaction to stress. Although the physiological role of CP is uncertain, its role in iron (Fe) homeostasis and protection against free radical-initiated cell injury has been widely ...

Relationship between serum copper & ceruloplasmin level and dependence on sample [PDF]
The correlation between the serum level of copper and ceruloplasmin was determined among sarcheshmeh copper workers and compared with Kerman blood bank diners samples. Serum copper was analyzed by atomic absorption spectrophotometry and ceruloplasmin was

From structural to functional glycomics: core substitutions as molecular switches for shape and lectin affinity of N-glycans [PDF]
Glycan epitopes of cellular glycoconjugates act as versatile biochemical signals (sugar coding). Here, we test the hypothesis that the common N-glycan modifications by core fucosylation and introduction of the bisecting N-acetylglucosamine moiety have ...

Correlation of Serum zinc with TSH in hyperthyroidism
Aims and Objectives: Trace elements may have a role in progression of hyperthyroidism. We planned to estimate the serum zinc, copper and ceruloplasmin in hyperthyroids. Materials and Methods: 41 hyperthyroid patients and 32 control subjects were taken

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