Many cell membranes carry receptors special for transferrine (sTfR). Transferrine binds to tjose receptors and is taken into the cells via receptor-mediated endocytosis. The acidic pH of lysosomes makes the iron leave the protein. Read more…
PROCALCITONINE
Procalcitonine, is a protein made up of 116 aminoacids. It is the precursor of actie calcitonine with 32 aminoacids. In normal metabolic conditions, hormonally active calcitonine is synthesized and secreted from procalcitonine via intacellular proteolitical dissociation, in the C cells of thyroid. In severe bacterial infections and sepsis, intact procalcitonine too is detected in the blood Read more…
Anti- CCP (Cyclic Citrullinated Peptid)
Anti-CCP, is an immune protein of IgG type, formed against a circular peptide, containing a non-standard aminoacid named citruline that does not exist in peptides or proteins normally. Citruline is a middele product that occurs as an amino group leaves the arginin aminoacid that is one of the standards in the body. Anti-CCP is used for diagnosis of rhomatoid arthritis. Read more…
