Measuring and Interpreting Holo-Transcobalamin (Holo-Transcobalamin II) [PDF]
At one time, diagnosing cobalamin deficiency was fairly simple, usually involving a patient with clinical problems, and was usually settled by determining whether the serum cobalamin concentration was low or not. As reviewed elsewhere (1), things began to change after sensitive metabolic tests were introduced and as attention extended to the cobalamin ...

Hypervitaminemia B12 in the elderly: a forgotten marker of serious underlying diseases [PDF]
Hypervitaminemia B12, long neglected in clinical practice, is a biological anomaly whose pathological significance remains largely underestimated, particularly in the elderly.

Transport function of transcobalamin II [PDF]
The uptake of free and bound (57)CoB(12), principally to transcobalamin II (TC II), was studied in isolated, perfused liver and kidney of the dog. (1) There was good uptake of canine TC II-B(12) by both organs. (2) In the liver TC II enhanced uptake over that of free B-12. (3) Renal uptake of free B-12 was greater than that of TC II-B(12).

Measurement of Transcobalamin by ELISA [PDF]
AbstractBackground: Transcobalamin is essential for the cellular internalization of cobalamin. Methods to quantify the unsaturated protein are available, but few attempts have been made to develop methods to quantify the sum of unsaturated and cobalamin saturated transcobalamin.Methods: γ-Globulins from two polyclonal rabbit antibodies against ...

Direct Assay for Cobalamin Bound to Transcobalamin (Holo-Transcobalamin) in Serum [PDF]
Abstract Background: Only cobalamin carried by transcobalamin (holo-transcobalamin) is available for cellular uptake and hence is physiologically relevant. However, no reliable or accurate methods for quantifying holo-transcobalamin are available. We report a novel holo-transcobalamin assay based on solid-phase capture of transcobalamin.
