Procalcitonin (procalcitonin) is a glycoprotein composed of 116 amino acids with a molecular weight of about 12.7kD. It is a propeptide of calcitonin with no hormone activity. PCT is expressed by neuroendocrine cells (including C cells of thyroid, lung and pancreas tissues) and decomposed into (immature) calcitonin, carboxyl-terminal peptide and amino-terminal peptide. 1. Biological characteristic...
WHAT is Folic Acid (Folate)? If you are pregnant, your doctor has likely suggested that you take Folic Acid pills. But do you know why? Folic Acid is a type of vitamin, also known as vitamin B9. Folic Acid is used to: · Make and repair DNA · Prevent birth defects of the spinal cord and brain (neural tube defects) · Produce red blood cells (Referen...
Pre-eclampsia What is Pre-eclampsia? Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-related condition characterized by extensive endothelial dysfunction and vasospasm, typically manifesting after 20 weeks of gestation and occasionally extending up to 4-6 weeks after childbirth. Clinically, it is identified by the onset of hypertension and proteinuria, with or without severe complications (Medscape, 2022). Early sign...
What are Cardiac troponins? Cardiac troponins are proteins found in cardiac (heart) muscle cells. They play a crucial role in regulating the contraction of the heart muscle. When heart muscle cells are damaged, such as during a heart attack or other cardiac injury, cardiac troponins are released into the bloodstream. Therefore, measuring the levels of cardiac troponins in the blood can help diagno...
What is Tumor Microenvironment (TME)? The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a constantly changing framework intricately linked with cancer cells, largely influenced by their presence. Distinctive traits of the TME include irregular blood vessels, hypoxia, acidic pH levels outside cells, modifications in the extracellular matrix, and stromal components like cancer-associated fibroblasts, macrophages,...
1. Understanding Thyroid Function A normal thyroid gland is important for the body's growth, behavior, and psychological and neurological development. The main function of the thyroid gland is to produce, store, and secrete thyroid hormones (TH), including thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), and is regulated by the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis. TH has a role in regulating mood, brain ...
