概括
血管细胞粘附分子1 (VCAM-1) 和细胞间粘附分子1 (ICAM-1) 的血清水平在患有急性和慢性的儿童中升高. 治疗显著降低了这些水平,表明它们作为监测儿科疹的生物标志物的潜力.
科学领域:
- 儿科免疫学 儿科免疫学
- 皮肤病学 皮肤病学
- 过敏和免疫学的过敏和免疫学.
背景情况:
- 疹病原包括过敏原暴露,触发粘附分子的释放,如VCAM-1和ICAM-1.
- 在表面皮肤中,VCAM-1和ICAM-1是关键的炎症媒介.
- 这项研究研究了VCAM-1和ICAM-1作为儿科疹的潜在生物标志物.
研究的目的:
- 评估VCAM-1和ICAM-1作为急性和慢性疹儿童生物标志物的作用.
- 为了评估抗组胺治疗后VCAM-1和ICAM-1血清水平的变化.
主要方法:
- 在184名儿童 (40例急性,71例慢性,73例对照) 中测量了ICAM-1和VCAM-1的血清水平.
- 测量是在基线和6-8周抗组胺治疗后对一组患者进行的.
- 疹活动得分问卷 (UAS7) 用于慢性疹患者.
主要成果:
- 与对照组相比,患有疹的儿童的VCAM-1和ICAM-1血清水平在基线较高.
- 在治疗后,在急性和慢性疹群中观察到VCAM-1和ICAM-1水平的显著降低.
- 在治疗后,疹患者的ICAM-1水平与对照组的水平相当.
结论:
- 作为监测儿童急性和慢性疹的生物标志物,VCAM-1和ICAM-1显示出有前途.
- 需要在更大的队列中进行进一步的研究来确认它们的实用性.
- 这些生物标志物可能有助于制定儿童疹个性化治疗策略.

Blood Studies for Cardiovascular System II: CRP, Hcy, and Cardiac Natriuretic Peptide Markers
81
Cardiac biomarkers are critical in diagnosing, prognosing, and managing cardiovascular diseases. Routine measurement of specific biomarkers such as B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), C-reactive protein (CRP), and homocysteine (Hcy) is common practice in clinical settings to evaluate heart function and predict cardiovascular events.
These markers indicate stress or strain on the heart muscle:
Natriuretic Peptides (BNP)
Cardiac myocytes produce these hormones in response to ventricular stretching...

Immunoglobulin-like Cell Adhesion Molecules
3.3K
Immunoglobulin-like cell adhesion molecules or Ig-CAMs are a versatile group of cell surface glycoproteins belonging to the immunoglobulin protein superfamily. Ig-CAMs possess the characteristic immunoglobulin protein domains and other domains such as the fibronectin type III domain. The Ig domains are glycosylated to varying degrees in different Ig-CAMs.
Ig-CAMs exhibit either homophilic binding (to other Ig-CAMs) or heterophilic binding (to other ligands such as integrins). While most Ig-CAMs...

Selectins
3.3K
Cell adhesion is an essential aspect of multicellularity. While stable cell interactions usually occur between cells of the same type, transient cell interactions occur between cells of different tissue types, such as between neutrophils and endothelial cells. Selectins are one class of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) that bind carbohydrate ligands to form transient cell adhesion. They are rod-like proteins with a long extracellular part of variable length ending with the lectin domain,...
