♣ Vitamin B12, also known as adenosylcobalamin or cyanocobalamin, is an essential water-soluble vitamin. It plays a key role in the body, including maintaining the normal function of the nervous system, promoting the production of red blood cells, and supporting DNA synthesis. The main difference between active B12 and B12 lies in their chemical forms and bioavailability. 1. Chemical form: B...
1. The necessity of developing cytokines in the Department of Hematology In the treatment of some diseases, such as bloodstream infection, hemophagocytic syndrome (HLH), leukemia, sepsis, etc., the inflammatory response status of patients is mostly detected, so cytokine detection plays an important role in the selection, adjustment and prognosis evaluation of treatment regimens. ⇔Hemophagocyt...
Cytokines are a general term for a class of small molecule polypeptides or glycoproteins with extensive biological activity synthesized and secreted by immune cells or some non-immune cells, which have the functions of regulating the body's immune function, mediating inflammatory responses, participating in tissue repair, and promoting wound healing. In the development of tumor diseases, cytokines...
As an important bioactive substance, the role and power of cytokines in the human body have been widely recognized. From infectious diseases and hematology to oncology, the application of cytokines has demonstrated its powerful monitoring and therapeutic potential. In gynecological clinical practice, cytokine detection is an important auxiliary diagnostic tool, which helps doctors evaluate the imm...
1. What is KL-6? KL-6 is recognized as a valid indicator of lung injury and pulmonary fibrosis, and is expressed on the surface of type II alveolar epithelial cells, in normal lung tissue and terminal bronchiolar epithelial cells. It is expressed in very small amounts, and is enhanced in degenerative (proliferating, regenerating, or damaged) type II alveolar epithelial cells, which is directly rel...
In vitro diagnostics (IVD), refers to products and services that obtain clinical diagnostic information by testing human samples (various body fluids, cells, tissue samples, etc.) outside the human body, and then judge diseases or body functions. In vitro diagnostics is known as the "doctor's eye" in the medical field, and is an important part of modern laboratory medicine, and its clinical ...
The paramount importance of chemiluminescence technology—a mainstream technique in immunodiagnostics—in the field of In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) is self-evident. However, in the current highly competitive environment, technological innovation remains the core competitiveness of enterprises. Breaking through the traditional barriers of chemiluminescence and forging new paths is the inevi...
