Albumin Cobalt Binding or Ischaemia Modified Albumin: a Test of Great Prognostic Value in Malaria.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND We evaluated albumin cobalt binding (ACB) assay also known as Ischaemia Modified Albumin (IMA) assay as a prognostic marker for severe malaria in a medical college setting. METHODS Consecutive adult patients admitted with both vivax and falciparum malaria were evaluated with ACB assay at

Evaluation of hepatic function with (99m)Tc-galactosylated serum albumin scintigraphy in patients with malaria: comparison with (99m)Tc-colloid scintigraphy and liver ultrasonography.

OBJECTIVE Malarial parasites injected by the mosquito rapidly target hepatocytes, and hepatomegaly is commonly observed during the progress of the disease in malaria patients. To evaluate the degree of hepatic damage and functional status of hepatocytes in malaria patients, we performed liver

Randomized trial of volume expansion with albumin or saline in children with severe malaria: preliminary evidence of albumin benefit.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Metabolic acidosis is the best predictor of death in children with severe falciparum malaria; however, its treatment presents a therapeutic dilemma, because acidosis and hypovolemia may coexist with coma, which can be associated with elevated intracranial pressure. We postulated that

Immunosuppression in murine malaria. IV. The secondary response to bovine serum albumin.

Only registered users can translate articles

The anamnestic antibody response of CBA mice to bovine serum albumin was characterized by a rapid production of high-avidity antibody. After 3 weeks both the total amount of antibody and its avidity declined but still remained above those seen in the primary response for at least 6 weeks. The

Volume expansion with albumin compared to gelofusine in children with severe malaria: results of a controlled trial.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Previous studies have shown that in children with severe malaria, resuscitation with albumin infusion results in a lower mortality than resuscitation with saline infusion. Whether the apparent benefit of albumin is due solely to its colloidal properties, and thus might also be achieved

Immunosuppression in murine malaria. II. The primary response to bovine serum albumin.

Only registered users can translate articles

The primary antibody response to alumadsorbed bovine serum albumin was depressed in CBA mice infected with Plasmodium yoelii yoelii. Responses initiated within approximately 3 weeks of this malaria infection were reduced in quantity, but not in avidity. Responses initated later were normal. A

Complement factor D, albumin, and immunoglobulin G anti-band 3 protein antibodies mimic serum in promoting rosetting of malaria-infected red blood cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rosetting of Plasmodium falciparum-infected red blood cells (parasitized RBC [pRBC]) with uninfected RBC has been associated in many studies with malaria morbidity and is one form of cytoadherence observed with malarial parasites. Rosetting is serum dependent for many isolates of P. falciparum,

Plasma protein binding of quinine: binding to human serum albumin, alpha 1-acid glycoprotein and plasma from patients with malaria.

Only registered users can translate articles

The binding of quinine to human serum albumin (HSA), alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (AAG) and plasma obtained from healthy subjects (10 caucasians and 15 Thais) and from Thai patients with falciparum malaria (n = 20) has been investigated. In healthy volunteers, plasma protein binding expressed as the

Bio-inspired artemether-loaded human serum albumin nanoparticles for effective control of malaria-infected erythrocytes.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The intra-erythrocytic development of the malarial parasite is dependent on active uptake of nutrients, including human serum albumin (HSA), into parasitized red blood cells (pRBCs). We have designed HSA-based nanoparticles as a potential drug-delivery option for

A high specificity and affinity interaction with serum albumin stimulates an anion conductance in malaria-infected erythrocytes.

Only registered users can translate articles

The intraerythrocytic development of P. falciparum induces New Permeability Pathways (NPP) in the membrane of the parasitized erythrocyte which provide the parasite with nutrients, adjust the erythrocyte electrolyte composition to the needs of the parasite, and dispose of metabolic waste products

Immunosuppression in murine malaria. III. Induction of tolerance and of immunological memory by soluble bovine serum albumin.

Only registered users can translate articles

The primary antibody response to alumadsorbed BSA was depressed when initiated during low-grade chronic Plasmodium berghei malaria in mice, as previously reported during acute P.y. yoelii infection. Induction of immunological memory by soluble polymerized BSA was abolished in both infections; in

Inadequate evidence to support phase III studies of albumin in severe malaria.

Cerebral malaria: insights from host-parasite protein-protein interactions.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Cerebral malaria is a form of human malaria wherein Plasmodium falciparum-infected red blood cells adhere to the blood capillaries in the brain, potentially leading to coma and death. Interactions between parasite and host proteins are important in understanding the pathogenesis of this

Renal dysfunction in children with uncomplicated, Plasmodium falciparum malaria in Tamale, Ghana.

Only registered users can translate articles

In a study performed in Tamale, in the Northern region of Ghana, cystatin C, a new and sensitive indicator of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), was used to estimate the frequency of renal dysfunction in 78 children with uncomplicated, Plasmodium falciparum malaria. The excretion in urine of
