Introductio n. Coronavirus infection is an acute viral disease with a predominant lesion of the upper respiratory tract caused by RNA-containing virus Coronaviridae family. However, it known that neutralizing antibodies play important role in antiviral therapy because they effectively inhibit reproduction viruses and reduce severity disease. Polyclonal contained convalescent plasma are usually ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In following patients initially recruited for a cross-sectional study of blood viscosity in ischemic cerebrovascular disease, it was noted that those having a low albumin-globulin ratio appeared to experience the majority of subsequent vascular events. Accordingly, a prospective study in which subjects were assigned to a high or low albumin-globulin cohort was undertaken ...

Alpha 2u Globulin is a protein synthesized in the liver, secreted into the serum, and excreted in the urine of mature male rats. The effects of androgens and estrogens on the level of the messenger RNA coding for the male rat hepatic protein have been investigated. Castrated male rats have reduced levels of alpha 2u globulin in serum and liver cytosol, as measured by a radial immunodiffusion as...

In human serum there are two protein fractions that are potent inhibitors to trypsin. These inhibitors travel with the a1-globulin and a2-globulin fractions when serum proteins are separated by electrophoresis (1-3). One ml of normal serum has sufficient amounts of trypsin inhibitor to neutralize the proteolytic effect of 1.15 (± 0.10) mg of crystalline trypsin. Approximately 90 per cent of the...

It has been proposed that inflammation or infection may contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes. We examined whether serum gamma globulin, a nonspecific measure of the humoral immune system, predicted changes in glucose tolerance in 2,530 members of the Pima Indian population, a group with a marked predisposition to type 2 diabetes. Cross-sectionally, gamma globulin was positively rela...

(Y 2u Globulin is a protein synthesized in the liver, secreted into the serum, and excreted in the urine of mature male rats. The effects of androgens and estrogens on the level of the messenger RNA coding for this male rat hepatic protein have been investigated. Castrated male rats have reduced levels of (Y 2u globulin in serum and liver cytosol, as measured by a radial immunodiffusion assay. ...

We performed a randomized, controlled trial of intravenous immune globulin (respiratory syncytial virus [RSV] neutralizing [Nt] antibody titer of 1:950 in 5% solution) to evaluate protection against RSV-induced disease over two respiratory virus seasons. Forty-nine children (mean age at enrollment, 4.5 months) with severe congenital heart disease or bronchopulmonary dysplasia were randomized as...
