Serum albumin, anotherproteinsynthesized by the liver,constitutesapproximately 60 percent of all of the plasma proteins. It is very important in maintainingosmotic pressurein the blood vessels; it is also an important carrier protein for a number of substances, including hormones. Other proteins called...
To evaluate that the serum results reflect brain-derived p-tau, we compared the p-tau biomarkers in paired serum and CSF samples from identical participants in cohort 3 using the same assay definition on the Simoa technology used for both blood matrices, at the appropriate dilution factors. CSF...

It also interacts with numerous proteins such as fibrinogen, actin, keratin, myosin, tropomyosin (Schenkels et al., 1994), human zinc-alpha-2 glycoprotein (Hassan et al., 2008) and human serum albumin (Kumar et al., 2012). Although PIP has been linked to male infertility, its exact ...
[4]. However, the invasive nature and high cost of PET/CSF-biomarkers have promoted the growing scientific interest in peripheral biomarkers, including those derived from plasma and serum [8]. Although plasma biomarkers are showing very promising results, they have not yet been implemented in ...
estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) = 186 × [serum creati- nine × 0.011]−1.154 × [age]−0.203 × [0.742 if female] × 1.233, where serum creatinine is expressed as micromoles per liter and 1.233 is the adjusting ...
Proteins displaying altered abundance in plasma or serum (P/S) EVs from patients with T2D underwent Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis, and Over-Representation Analysis (ORA). These analyses aimed to unveil the potential biological function...
Briefly, 1 × 105 cells were plated on 6-well plates and grown to 90% confluency for 2 days followed by serum deprivation for 1 h. Wounds were generated using a sterile 1000 ml pipette tip and washed with growth medium, and cells were treated with diluted LP to 1/2, 1/4,...
Numerous drugs bind nonspecifically to serum proteins, especially albumin, as well as other cell constituents in the skeletal system (bones, teeth, muscle), through a process known as nonspecific protein binding. Protein-bound drugs are not bioactive (i.e., protein-bound drugs have no therapeutic...
