Serum osteoprotegerin levels in healthy controls and cancer patients.
PURPOSE Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is a novel secreted member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. In vitro, OPG blocks osteoclastogenesis in a dose-dependent manner. Serum OPG levels were assayed in cancer patients and healthy control subjects using an ELISA. RESULTS OPG levels in healthy controls were significantly higher in sera (0.17 ng/ml) than in plasma (0.14 ng/ml). OPG levels...
متن کاملCollagen degradation products measured in serum can separate ovarian and breast cancer patients from healthy controls: A preliminary study.
BACKGROUND During cancer the otherwise tightly controlled homeostasis of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is disturbed. The protein composition changes, the ECM stiffens and increased levels of proteases are secreted. The combination of these processes result in release of specific protein fragments (e.g. collagens) to the circulation, which when measured may reflect disease pathogenesis. OBJEC...
متن کاملCan Relationality be Distinguished from Abstractness in Noun Mutability?
Previous studies have suggested that relational concepts are more mutable—more prone to change meaning in context— than entity concepts even when both relational and entity concepts are denoted by nouns (Asmuth & Gentner, 2005; Feist & Férez, 2007). However, relationality is a complex dimension, and is highly correlated with other factors such as imageability and abstractness. In the current re...
متن کاملSoluble E-selectin and P-Selectin Serum Levels in Patients with Psoriasis Compared to Healthy Controls
Introduction: Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease in which abnormal individual immune reactivity plays an important role. Eselectin and P-selectin are adhesion molecules expressed on vascular endothelial cells in several inflammatory skin diseases, including psoriasis. The aim of the present study was to describe selected immunological changes, concerning adhesion molecules status (sEsele...
متن کاملCan Prostate Specific Antigen Be Used as New Biomarker for Early Diagnosis of Breast Cancer?
Introduction: As a glycoprotein, Plasma Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) is mainly produced by prostate epithelial cells and is used as a major diagnostic tool for prostate cancer. A group of researchers relate the elevated number of estrogen receptors in breast cancer samples to the over-production of PSA in this type of cancer. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine the participants' ...
