Predictor of Outcome in Patients With Suspected Acute Coronary Syndromes We read with interest the article by Lund et al1 on circulating pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) in 136 patients evaluated for suspected acute coronary syndrome without cardiac troponin I elevation. PAPP-A concentrations above 2.9 mIU/L during the first 24 hours independently predicted cardiovascular death, n...
AIMS Mortality of maintenance haemodialysis (HD) patients is very high due to polymorbidity, mostly from metabolic and cardiovascular disease. In order to identify patients with high risk for life-threatening complications, reliable prognostic markers would be helpful. Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) has been shown to predict cardiovascular events and death in patients with stabl...
BACKGROUND Baseline distributions of pregnancy disorders' biomarkers PlGF and PAPP-A levels are primarily based on Western European populations of Caucasian ethnicity. Differences in PAPP-A and PlGF concentrations by ethnicity have been observed, with increased levels in Afro-Caribbean, East Asian, and South Asian women. Baseline concentrations of sub-Saharan African women have not been evaluat...
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to evaluate the associations of the first, second and third trimester serum pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) concentrations with neonatal anthropometric parameters. The effect of tobacco smoking during pregnancy on PAPP-A level was also studied. MATERIAL AND METHODS One hundred and fifty healthy pregnant women were divided into smoking ...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) is a biomarker related to vascular damage. The aim of the study was to focus on PAPP-A and related parameters and their relationship to the prognosis of long-term hemodialysis (HD) patients. METHODS This is a prospective observational cohort study which included 261 long-term HD patients followed up for 5 years and 66 healthy subj...
background: measuring of maternal serum pregnancy-associated plasma protein-a (papp-a) in first trimester can be a way for early detection of adverse prenatal outcome due to faulty placenta.objective: the aim was to determination of association between placental thickness in second trimester with low level of papp-a in first trimester.materials and methods: in this cohort study, serum papp-a of...
s 1. Abizaid A, Mezei G, Horvath TL. (2003) Estradiol enhances light induced fos immunoreactivity (Fos-IR) within the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of ovarectomized (OVX) female rats.

The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling pathway is involved in certain human cancers, and the feasibility of directly targeting the IGF receptor has been actively investigated. However, recent evidence from clinical trials suggests that this approach can be problematic. We have developed an alternative strategy to indirectly inhibit the IGF signaling by targeting the metalloproteinase, p...
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I stimulates vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) migration and proliferation, which are fundamental to neointimal hyperplasia in postangioplasty restenosis. IGF-I action is modulated by several high-affinity IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs). IGFBP-4 is the predominant IGFBP produced by VSMCs and is a potent inhibitor of IGF-I action. However, specific IGFBP-4 protea...
OBJECTIVE To describe the association between pregnancy associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A), alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and adverse perinatal outcome. METHODS We conducted a multicenter prospective cohort study of 8,483 women attending for prenatal care in southern Scotland between 1998 and 2000. The risk of delivering a small for gestational age infant, delivering preterm, and stillbirth were ...
