The global burden posed by cardiovascular disease (CVD), due to a rising incidence of
known risk factors, underlines an urgent need to identify other potential risk factors. Sialic …

OBJECTIVES: To describe the serious health consequences of alcohol (ethanol) use,
especially as they relate to pregnancy and the development of fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) …

The silver chloride@ polyaniline (PANI) core− shell nanocomposites (AgCl@ PANI)

Baune BT, Neuhauser H, Ellert U, Berger K. The role of the inflammatory markers ferritin,
transferrin and fibrinogen in the relationship between major depression and cardiovascular …

Glycosylation is one of the most significant protein PTM s. The biological activities of proteins
are dramatically changed by the glycans associated with them. Thus, structural analysis of …

Aluminium (Al) in the blood is bound to transferrin (Tf), a glycoprotein of about 80kDa that is
characterized by its need for a synergistic anion. In this focused review, the binding affinity of …

Transferrins (Tfs) are glycoproteins with carbohydrate chains in the C-lobe. Carbohydrate-
deficient Tfs (CDTs) with fewer sialic acids increased in several diseases. In this study, the …

Background: Sialic acid is a component of serum that is elevated in diseases such as
diabetes and certain malignancies. The normal range of SSA concentration and serum …

Alcoholic liver disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States and in
many other countries in the world. Ethanol is toxic to the liver. Thus, the persistent, excessive …

BACKGROUND: Cell surface glycoligands and circulating glycoproteins are believed to
contribute to the pathogenesis of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) through cell …
