Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein: a new biomarker for infectious endocarditis?
BACKGROUND Infectious endocarditis (IE) is a bacterial infection of the endocardium. Diagnosis is based on results obtained from echocardiography, blood cultures, and molecular genetic screening for bacteria and on data for inflammatory markers such as the leukocyte (WBC) count and the C-reactive protein (CRP) concentration. The aim of the present study was to evaluate lipopolysaccharide-bindin...
متن کاملKlotho Protein,A Biomarker for AKI
Klotho is an anti-aging single-pass membrane protein that is mainly produced in the kidney. The level of soluble klotho decreases with age and the klotho gene is associated with an increased risk of age-related diseases, such as diabetes, skin atrophy, chronic kidney disease, ataxia and cancer. The klotho gene is composed of five exons and encodes a membrane glycoprotein located in the plasma ...
متن کاملLipopolysaccharide-binding protein plasma levels as a biomarker of obesity-related insulin resistance in adolescents
PURPOSE Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) is a 65-kDa acute phase protein, derived from the liver, which is present in high concentrations in plasma. Data regarding the association between circulating plasma LBP levels and obesity-related biomarkers in the pediatric population are scarce. We aimed to determine whether there was a difference in plasma LBP levels between overweight/obese a...
متن کاملa new approach to credibility premium for zero-inflated poisson models for panel data
هدف اصلی از این تحقیق به دست آوردن و مقایسه حق بیمه باورمندی در مدل های شمارشی گزارش نشده برای داده های طولی می باشد. در این تحقیق حق بیمه های پبش گویی بر اساس توابع ضرر مربع خطا و نمایی محاسبه شده و با هم مقایسه می شود. تمایل به گرفتن پاداش و جایزه یکی از دلایل مهم برای گزارش ندادن تصادفات می باشد و افراد برای استفاده از تخفیف اغلب از گزارش تصادفات با هزینه پائین خودداری می کنند، در این تحقیق ...
15 صفحه اولIdentification and characterization of lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP) as an estrogen receptor α specific serum biomarker
Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) and Estrogen Receptor β (ERβ) are steroid nuclear receptors that transduce estrogen signaling to control diverse physiological processes linked to reproduction, bone remodeling, behavior, immune response and endocrine-related diseases. In order to differentiate between ERα and ERβ mediated effects in vivo, ER subtype selective biomarkers are essential. We utilized ERα ...
