conclusions apc referral for elevated hba1c reduces complication rate and the incidence of prolonged hospitalization during the first year after surgery in diabetics undergoing tja. results patients (197 men, 6 women) underwent 71, 131, and 1 total hip, knee, and shoulder replacements, respectively. patients undergoing tja with uncontrolled hba1c and those with hba1c < 10%, but not those with h...

Microvessels isolated from rat epididymal fat exhibit differential vesicular ingestion rates for unmodified and non-enzymatically glycosylated rat albumin. While unmodified rat albumin is excluded from ingestion by endothelial micropinocytic vesicles, glycosylated albumin is avidly taken up by endocytosis. Interaction of albumin and glycosylated albumin with endothelium was studied with a doubl...

Encapsulation of glycosylated porphyrins in silica nanoparticles enhanced the efficacy cancer photodynamic therapy compared with free porphyrins.

infectious bursal disease (ibd), a highly contagious and devastating disease in young chicken, is causedby infectious bursal disease virus (ibdv). to improve the immunogenicity of recombinant ibdv subunitvaccine, an attempt was made to find a new way to prepare ibd vaccine containing glycosylated mvp2antigen. firstly, ibdv mvp2 gene (with a nucleic acid sequence encoding b cell epitope of ibdv(...

Some of the routine methods of measuring glycosylated haemoglobin depend on its difference in charge from haemoglobin A and do not distinguish between glycosylated haemoglobin and fetal haemoglobin. Two insulin dependent diabetics showed persistent discrepancies between their capillary blood glucose values and their glycosylated haemoglobin values measured by agar gel electrophoresis: the blood...

BACKGROUND Recently we have shown that the matricellular CCN3 protein expressed in invasive extravillous trophoblast cells (EVTs) is decreased in early-onset pre-eclampsia and is regulated by oxygen tension. Pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia relies on a shallow invasion of EVTs into the spiral arteries, which leads to hypoxia accompanied by uteroplacental insufficiency. Here we investigated the fun...
