2. Reference ranges for blood tests - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_ranges_for_blood...

   Reference ranges (reference intervals) for blood tests are sets of values used by a health professional to interpret a set of medical test results from blood samples. Reference ranges for blood tests are studied within the field of clinical chemistry (also known as "clinical biochemistry", "chemical pathology" or "pure blood chemistry"), the ...

3. Angiotensin-converting enzyme - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angiotensin-converting_enzyme

   Angiotensin-converting enzyme (EC 3.4.15.1), or ACE, is a central component of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS), which controls blood pressure by regulating the volume of fluids in the body. It converts the hormone angiotensin I to the active vasoconstrictor angiotensin II .

   Flowchart showing the clinical effects of RAAS activity and the sites of action of ACE inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers. ACE inhibitors of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors are often used to reduce the formation of the more potent angiotensin II. Captopril is an example of an ACE inhibitor. ACE cleaves a number of other ...

5. Acquired C1 esterase inhibitor deficiency - Wikipedia

   As shown in the figure above, the complement cascade starts with the C1q protein which binds to an antibody-antigen complex that arises during an immune response to an invading substance. [5] When the complex is signaled for activation or turned on, then downstream proteins in the complement cascade are activated, including complement component ...

7. Anti-immunoglobulin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-immunoglobulin

   This method of antibody engineering can expand the antibody compatibility to multiple assay components. [3] All anti-immunoglobulin antibodies are laboratory-made, so they are a type of clonal antibody. Clonal antibodies are engineered in a laboratory to mimic the effects of primary antibodies. Clonal antibodies can either be monoclonal or ...

8. Isotype (immunology) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotype_(immunology)

   The IgG, IgE and IgA antibody isotypes are generated following class-switching during germinal centre reaction and provide different effector functions in response to specific antigens. IgG is the most abundant antibody class in the serum and it is divided into 4 subclasses based on differences in the structure of the constant region genes and ...

9. Anti-cardiolipin antibodies - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-cardiolipin_antibodies

   Anti-cardiolipin antibodies can be classified in two ways: As IgM, IgG or IgA; As β 2-glycoprotein dependent or independent In autoimmune disease, ACA are beta-2 glycoprotein dependent; In syphilis, ACA [1] are beta-2 glycoprotein independent and can be assayed using the Venereal Disease Research Laboratory test
