  2. Hyperproteinemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperproteinemia

    Normal total protein levels are not sufficient to rule out multiple myeloma or other malignant paraproteinemias, but they may also be the cause of moderate-to-marked hyperproteinemia. To determine the reason behind the elevated serum total protein, a serum protein electrophoresis should be carried out.

  3. Monoclonal gammopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoclonal_gammopathy

    Monoclonal gammopathy, also known as paraproteinemia, is the presence of excessive amounts of myeloma protein or monoclonal gamma globulin in the blood.It is usually due to an underlying immunoproliferative disorder or hematologic neoplasms, especially multiple myeloma.

  4. Serum protein electrophoresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serum_protein_electrophoresis

    Serum protein electrophoresis (SPEP or SPE) is a laboratory test that examines specific proteins in the blood called globulins. [1] The most common indications for a serum protein electrophoresis test are to diagnose or monitor multiple myeloma , a monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance (MGUS), or further investigate a discrepancy ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C-reactive_protein

    C-reactive protein (CRP) is an annular (ring-shaped) pentameric protein found in blood plasma, whose circulating concentrations rise in response to inflammation. It is an acute-phase protein of hepatic origin that increases following interleukin-6 secretion by macrophages and T cells .

    The participants who ate protein from the widest variety of sources had a reduced risk of developing high blood pressure. That’s some serious motivation to proiritize the satisfying macronutrient.

  8. Hypergammaglobulinemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypergammaglobulinemia

    Hypergammaglobulinemia is a condition that is characterized by the increased levels of a certain immunoglobulin in the blood serum. [1] The name of the disorder refers to an excess of proteins after serum protein electrophoresis (found in the gammaglobulin region). [citation needed]

    The resulting test report should specify the assay method and equipment used, and the report of a quantitative test should also provide a reference range for the test result. Many laboratories report reference ranges that are based on all other samples tested in that laboratory, necessarily including samples with abnormal AFP concentrations due ...
