Characterising the role of haptoglobin in experimental subarachnoid haemorrhage.
… incite these pathological processes. The role of haptoglobin (Hp), a systemic acute phase protein and the primary Hb-scavenging molecule, has recently been postulated to play a role in the pathogenesis of cerebral arterial vasospasm and delayed neurological deterioration in patients suffering SAH. …

Improving Estimation of Coronary Artery Disease Risk Using Haptoglobin Genotyping
… which are known to affect ASCVD risk.</p> <p>Haptoglobin (Hp) genotype also influences CAD risk. Hp is a protein that binds free hemoglobin released from physiologic or pathologic erythrocyte turnover or destruction. If unbound, free hemoglobin causes oxidative stress, increasing the risk of …

Population Frequencies of Phosphoglucomutase (PGM), Adenylate Kinase (AK), and Haptoglobin (Hp) in the Metropolitan Birmingham Area.
Frequently the need to identify or exclude an individual arises in criminal cases. Historically, fingerprinting has been a universally acceptable method of individual identification. Unfortunately, fingerprints are not always found at the crime scene ; therefore, other methods for identification of …

Cloning, Expression and Purification of the Different Human Haptoglobin Chains and Initial Characterization by Mass Spectrometry
Haptoglobin (Hp) is an acute phase glycoprotein that exists in all vertebrates and can be found in the majority of body fluids. It is phenotypically variant in humans and presents in two allelic forms: Hp1 and Hp2. The two forms vary by the identity of their light chains: L1 or L2 for Hp1 and Hp2, …

Association of Haptoglobin Phenotypes and Hypertension in Patients Attending Outpatient Medical Clinic at the University Teaching Hospital (UTH), Lusaka, Zambia/ Masauso Moses Phiri
… hypertension is complex and multifactorial. Haptoglobin genes have been cited as risk factors in the development of hypertension. Haptoglobin is an α2-glycoprotein acute phase reactant that binds to free haemoglobin and forms a stoichiometrically stable complex. The impact of ethnic and …

Investigations into the fibrinolytic system and haptoglobin types in certain hereditary and acquired haemostatic disorders and the presence of circulating anticoagulants in such states
I THE FIBRINOLYTIC SYSTEM: A review of the literature is presented together with an evaluation of the present methods for the measurement of its parameters.

Inflamatory status and leukocyte function during the peripartum period and subsequent effects on reproduction and lactational performance in dairy cattle
… In the first study, the association of plasma haptoglobin concentrations and leukocyte responses following parturition and subsequent reproductive efficiency in multiparous Holstein cows was investigated. Cows from eight commercial dairy herds in Western Texas and Eastern New Mexico were …

Investigating the effect of dexamethasone on productivity, immune function, and behavior in dystocic periparturient dairy cattle
… a dystocic parturition. The inflammatory marker haptoglobin was measured as well as behavioral and production measures. We observed that primiparous DEX cows exhibited a greater haptoglobin concentration on d 3 and d 7 postpartum compared to primiparous CON cows. Behavior was seen to be altered …

Examination of Placenta and Child Saliva Samples Associated with Childhood Allergy Development
… channel protein 3, peroxiredoxin-2, haptoglobin and complement C3. Moreover, 14-3-3 protein had very high expression in allergic children and very low expression in the non-allergic group. Using child saliva samples, 177 proteins were identified from MaxLFQ analysis. Of these …

Changes in serum histologic surrogate markers and procollagen III N- terminal peptide as independent predictors of HBeAg loss in patients with chronic hepatitis B during entecavir therapy
… levels were significantly decreased and the haptoglobin level was significantly increased from baseline after entecavir treatment. Multivariate analysis identified PIIINP (P=0.028) and the initial virologic response (P=0.019) as independent predictors of HBeAg loss. CONCLUSION: During …

Welfare issues in Italian heavy pig production
… pigs to explore the environment, reduced serum haptoglobin (i.e. the inflammatory state) and reduced the risk of tail biting (at weeks 3, 9, 18) and ear biting (at weeks 3, 9). At slaughter, the straw group revealed a gastric ulcer risk ~ 70% lower than the one without straw (OR: 0.27). Males …

Galectin binding proteins in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage -in healthy and pathological conditions
… individuals. The increase was mainly caused by haptoglobin, probably due to both increased expression and changes of glycosylation. To further investigate the inflammatory connection we identified galectin binding proteins from bronchoalveolar lavage of asthma patients and healthy individuals, …

Functional properties of galectin-3. Beyond the sugar binding.
… galectin-1 directs the endocytosis of hemoglobin-haptoglobin complex. Our results indicated that galectin-1 bound fraction of the complex takes a recycling intracellular route instead of the pathway for degradation. The third paper shows how certain complex carbohydrate ligands can induce …
