Serum selenium concentrations in rheumatoid arthritis.
Selenium is a trace element and an essential part of the enzyme glutathione peroxidase, which protects cells from oxidative damage. Selenium has been shown to have antiproliferative, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and immune altering effects. Serum selenium concentrations in 101 patients with seropositive rheumatoid arthritis were found to be significantly lower than those in 29 normal, healthy ...
متن کاملSerum osteocalcin concentrations in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Osteocalcin is a non-collagenous bone matrix protein which is released into the circulation and can be measured by radioimmunoassay. Recent studies indicate that serum osteocalcin concentrations are a marker of bone formation. Because bone demineralisation is a common finding in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) the serum osteocalcin concentrations and, in addition, the serum concentratio...
متن کاملIncreased concentrations of serum pentosidine in rheumatoid arthritis.
Advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs) are thought to play an important role in the development of diabetic complications. Oxidative reactions are essential for the formation of some AGEs, termed glycoxidation products. Increased concentrations of pentosidine, one of such products, are found in tissue and serum in diabetes mellitus and in end-stage renal disease, suggesting that hyperglycem...

متن کاملSerum kynurenine in rheumatoid arthritis.
The concentration of kynurenine has been measured in the serum of patients with rheumatoid arthritis and in a control group. The mean serum concentration was 2.27 +/- 0.688 mug/ml for patients with rheumatoid arthritis and 2.95 +/- 0.825 mug/ml for the control group.KYNURENINE: creatinine clearance ratios were higher in the rheumatoid arthritis than in the control group. These data suggest that...
