Multiple immunoreactive forms of osteocalcin in uremic serum.
Circulating osteocalcin, which normally reflects the rate of bone formation, is elevated in uremia. In 18 patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis, serum osteocalcin levels were directly related to the bone formation rate (r = 0.88, P less than 0.001), osteoblastic osteoid surface density (r = 0.65, P less than 0.01), and osteoclastic resorptive surface density (r = 0.75, P less than 0.001)....
متن کاملDevelopment and evaluation of three immunofluorometric assays that measure different forms of osteocalcin in serum.
BACKGROUND Circulating human osteocalcin (hOC) has been used as a marker of bone formation. Our aim was to validate three immunofluorometric assays (IFMAs), measuring different forms of hOC. METHODS The two-site IFMAs were based on previously characterized monoclonal antibodies. Assay 2 recognized intact hOC, assays 4 and 9 measured the NH(2)-terminal mid-fragment and the intact hOC. In addit...
متن کاملDeterminants and correlates of serum undercarboxylated osteocalcin.
BACKGROUND/AIMS To assess dietary and nondietary determinants of serum undercarboxylated osteocalcin (ucOC) as a measure of vitamin K status. METHODS UcOC and total intact osteocalcin (iOC) concentrations were determined by specific ELISA tests in serum samples of 231 male and 320 female participants (18-81 years) of the representative, cross-sectional Bavarian Food Consumption Survey II. Det...
متن کاملSandwich enzyme immunoassay of osteocalcin in serum with use of an antibody against human osteocalcin.
We have developed and thoroughly validated a solid-phase sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) on microtiter plates for osteocalcin in human serum with use of an antibody raised against human osteocalcin. We used a monoclonal antibody against bovine osteocalcin as the capture antibody; the second antibody was a polyclonal antibody against human osteocalcin. The amount of bound seco...
متن کاملImmunoreactive gastrin components in human serum.
The apparent molecular size and charge of immunoreactive gastrin components were studied in sera from patients with pernicious anaemia or gastrinomas (the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome) by Sephadex gel filtration and aminoethylcellulose chromatography. The following serum components were distinguished: (1) a monophasic component I similar in size to proinsulin which was converted into ;little' gas...
