PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a composition for separating serum or plasma which is uniformly mixed and efficiently produced, by preventing the non-uniform dispartion of a powdery substance like fine powder silica causing the flow or phase separation of the composition due to the lowering of ...
No changes in the composition of plasma N-glycome occurred during the first six hours after the surgery (see Fig. 1, Supplementary Table S1), beside a statistically significant increase in biantennary glycans and a decrease in the sialylation of triantennary and tetraantennary structures (...

Most of the IgA production occurs at the mucosal surfaces along the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts, but a large portion of circulating IgA is contributed by bone-marrow plasma cells3. IgA neutralizes mucosal pathogens4 and enhanced IgA responsiveness has been reported in various respiratory ...
SHBG production occurs in the liver and is influenced by insulin sensitivity and body fat composition during pregnancy [36, 52, 55]. Although SHBG’s main function is to bind sex steroids to reduce free sex hormone levels, SHBG has also been found to link inversely to insulin resistance ...
Although this is a topic that should be discussed more deeply in the future, it seems that the results of saliva after correction would be more in line with what has been described in humans, since TBARS concentrations have been shown to be increased in plasma [23] and erythrocytes [48],...
Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element that by its antioxidant properties has been studied to elucidate its participation in the development of obesity and type 2 diabetes. We evaluated the association between cardiometabolic traits and serum Se levels in a sample of adults from southern Mexico...
Nonetheless, it has been claimed that the lack of conclusive evidence obtained in the meta-analyses may be due to several biases, including not only the poor quality of some of the meta-analyzed trials, but also other relevant factors such as the unmeasured role of genetic polymorphisms influen...
as in the case of a plasma cell neoplasm in which the clonal cells are neither producing nor secreting M proteins. The most commonly observed paraprotein is IgG followed by IgA, light chain, and, rarely, IgD. When a monoclonal band is identified using serum protein electrophoresis, serum immun...
Serum albumin, commonly recognized as a predominant major plasma protein, is ubiquitously distributed among vertebrates, demonstrating versatility and widespread accessibility. Numerous studies have discussed the composition and attributes of human and bovine serum albumin; nonetheless, few systematic and compre...
