Serum glycoproteins A and B assessed by 1H-NMR in familial hypercholesterolemia
Abstract Background and aims: Inflammation is a pathophysiological mechanism of atherosclerosis, and several mediators have been proposed as biomarkers. Acute-phase serum glycoproteins are upregulated in the liver during systemic inflammation. Because of their unique biochemical characteristics, they can be measured by 1H-NMR, and their role as subclinical inflammation markers is under clinical evaluation. We aimed to assess […]
Glycoprotein Profile Assessed by 1H-NMR as a Global Inflammation Marker in Patients with HIV Infection. A Prospective Study.
Abstract Plasma glycoproteins are a composite biomarker of inflammation and can be detected by 1H-NMR. The aim of this study was to prospectively appraise the clinical value of plasma glycoproteins assessed by 1H-NMR in people living with HIV (PLWH). A total of 221 patients with HIV infection were recruited and studied at baseline and at 48 […]
