Circulating C-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen is cleared mainly via the mannose receptor in liver endothelial cells.
The fate of the circulating C-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PICP) was studied. Trace amounts of 125I-PICP administered intravenously to rats disappeared from the blood with an initial t1/2 of 6.1 min. After 45 min the radioactivity was distributed as follows: liver, 36%; blood, 23%; kidneys, 18%; urine, 20%; spleen, 1%; lungs, 2%; heart, 0.4%. To prevent escape of label from the si...
متن کاملFamilial high serum concentrations of the carboxyl-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen.
We describe a family with an apparently autosomal-dominant trait that caused extremely high circulating concentrations of the carboxyl-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PICP). All family members examined had normal values for other biochemical markers of bone formation and degradation and no related clinical abnormalities. Furthermore, their serum concentrations of the amino-terminal p...
متن کاملQuantitative Analysis of Serum Procollagen Type I C-Terminal Propeptide by Immunoassay on Microchip
BACKGROUND Sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is one of the most frequently employed assays for clinical diagnosis, since this enables the investigator to identify specific protein biomarkers. However, the conventional assay using a 96-well microtitration plate is time- and sample-consuming, and therefore is not suitable for rapid diagnosis. To overcome these drawbacks, we perfo...
متن کاملHigh serum N-terminal propeptide of procollagen type III concentration is associated with liver diseases
Introduction N-terminal propeptide of procollagen type III (PIIINP) is generated during the synthesis of type III collagen. PIIINP can be measured in the serum as an indicator of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. Aim To evaluate the effect of liver diseases of different aetiologies and clinical severity of liver cirrhosis on the serum level of PIIINP. Material and methods Patients with alcoholi...
متن کاملSerum carboxyl-terminal propeptide of procollagen type I in exercise-induced left ventricular hypertrophy.
BACKGROUND Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) induced by exercise is considered to be a physiologic adaptive mechanism without fibrogenic hyperactivity, as occurs in pathologic hypertrophy. HYPOTHESIS This study investigated serum markers of collagen synthesis and echo parameters of left ventricular diastolic function (LVdf) in 22 male athletes. METHODS Twenty-two highly competitive male at...
