Increased Plasma Angiogenin Level is Associated and May Contribute to Decreased T-Cell Zeta-Chain Expression in Hemodialysis Patients
(2013)
Hemodialysis (HD) patients are characterized by impaired T-cell function at least in part because of T-cell zeta-chain downregulation due to inflammation. Angiogenin responds as an acute phase reactant, is increased in HD ...
Perilipin-1 in Hemodialyzed Patients: Association With History of Coronary Heart Disease and Lipid Profile
(2012)
Perilipin-1 surrounds lipid droplets in both adipocytes and in atheroma plaque foam cells and controls access of lipases to the lipid core. In hemodialysis (HD) patients, dyslipidemia, malnutrition, inflammation and ...
Ferroportin in monocytes of hemodialysis patients and its associations with hepcidin, inflammation, markers of iron status and resistance to erythropoietin
(2014)
Disturbed iron homeostasis contributes to resistance to recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo) in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Increased hepcidin, which downregulates the iron exporter ferroportin, has been incriminated. ...
Serum copper and ferroportin in monocytes of hemodialysis patients are both decreased but unassociated
(2014)
Disturbed iron homeostasis contributes to resistance to recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo) in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Although increased hepcidin, which downregulates the iron exporter ferroportin, had been ...
Factors affecting effectiveness of vaccination against hepatitis B virus in hemodialysis patients
(2014)
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major global health problem. Despite the success of the general measures against blood transmitted infections in hemodialysis (HD) units, the prevalence of HBV infection among the HD patients ...
Serum osteoprotegerin is markedly increased and may contribute to decreased blood T cell count in hemodialysis patients
(2013)
Acquired immunity is impaired in hemodialysis (HD) patients, and decreased T cell number may contribute. Receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) are expressed in cells of the ...
Damage-associated molecular patterns derived from mitochondria may contribute to the hemodialysis-associated inflammation
(2014)
Inflammation is common in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Mitochondrial damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are released during cell necrosis or apoptosis and induce inflammation. Cell apoptosis is increased in HD ...
