Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleConservation of Binding of Llama and Other Animals’ Hemoglobins to Haptoglobins Across SpeciesMoges Woldemeskel, Oluseyi A. VanderpuyeThe plasma protein haptoglobin binds hemoglobin released from lysed erythrocytes. It causes removal of the free hemoglobin, thus preventing pathological oxidation of cells. Hemoglobin higher level structures are well conserved across animal species but primary structures can be as little as 50% homologous. Because of these differences, the question arose as to what extent hemoglobins can bind to haptoglobins from … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2018 · 9,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFrequency Distribution of Hemoglobin Variants and Rhesus Blood Groups Among Pregnant WomenOyeyemi Ifeoluwa Temitayo, Salawu Oyetunde TimothyHemoglobin variants, ABO and Rhesus blood groups vary from one population to another. The study was designed to sample pregnant women population from Ayetoro community of Ogun state, Nigeria, for the purpose of updating information on the prevalence of abnormal hemoglobin variants, ABO and Rh blood groups and compare the results with previously published data. Hospital records of recruited pregnant … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 18 Apr 2013 · 8,009 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInsertion of poly (ethylene glycol)-lipid reduces the liposome-encapsulated hemoglobininduced thrombocytopenic reactionVibhudutta Awasthi, Beth Goins, William T. PhillipsInteraction with platelets has been recognized as a concern in the development of liposome-encapsulated hemoglobin as an oxygen carrier. This reaction causes a significant drop in circulating platelets in a rapid and transient fashion. We studied the effect of lipid bilayer charge on the magnitude of drop in circulating platelets. We also investigated the effect of post-inserted PEG-lipid on this … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,377 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titleLessons Learned: Barriers to Hemoglobin A1c Monitoring in Rural Northern TanzaniaAndrea Fortson Knopp, Erika Metzler SawinIn sub-Saharan countries, Non-communicable Chronic Diseases (NCDs), including diabetes, are on the rise. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is a Point Of Care (POC) diagnostic tool for diabetic monitoring that is unavailable in many resource-constrained environments worldwide. Theoretically, HbA1c measurement is practical in these settings because fasting is not required, the test is not generally repeated before 120 days and travel time … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2021 · 6,228 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEthanolic Extract of Leaves of Newbouldia laevis Attenuates Glycosylation of Hemoglobin and Lipid Peroxidation in Diabetic RatsKolawole O. Timothy, Akanji M. Adewumi, Awe O. Emmanuel, Akiibinu M. OlayemiDiabetes is one of the major health problems around the world and the incidence of this metabolic disorder is on the increase. Current therapeutic interventions have not done much in preventing complications of diabetes. Therefore this study investigated the effect of ethanolic extract of Newbouldia laevis leaves (NLet) on lipid peroxidation and glycosylation of hemoglobin, which are pathological indicators of … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 13 Nov 2013 · 8,121 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAlpha Thalassemia Carrier Detection a Diagnostic ApproachH. R. Samruddhi, Anupama Hegde, Harsha Prasada L et al.Alpha-thalassemia is one of the most common single-gene disorders, and its carrier state often remains undetected due to nonspecific hematological findings. This study aimed to identify alpha-thalassemia carrier status among people being investigated for hemoglobinopathy in a tertiary care setting. A cross-sectional laboratory-based study was conducted from January 2023 to January 2024. Hemoglobin variant analysis reports by High Performance Liquid … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 22 Sep 2026 · 481 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCorrelates of Resistance to Gastro-Intestinal Parasites Infection in South African Communal Indigenous Goat PopulationsTakalani Judas Mpofu, Khathutshelo Agree Nephawe, Bohani MtileniThe study was conducted to investigate the correlates of resistance to Gastro-Intestinal Parasites (GIPs) infection in South African communal indigenous goat. A total of 288 goats were randomly sampled for fecal and blood collection. Infection intensity was estimated through determining the fecal egg per gram using a modified McMaster technique. Packed Cell Volume (PCV), Hemoglobin (Hgb) and Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2020 · 7,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsErythropoietin-Like Effects of Dihydroartemisinin in Wistar Albino RatsUtoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu Anastasia, Nedosa Kenechi Stanislaus, Onyedibe Ikenna KennethArtemisinin drugs were active during the intra-erythrocytic stage of malaria parasite infection. The activity of artemisinin and synthetic endoperoxides was related to their interaction with heme. The electrophillic intermediate formed from artemisinin in the presence of heme alkylates the protein portion of hemoglobin preferentially to the heme portion. Problem statement: Since there might be an interaction between artemisinin and the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 9 Dec 2011 · 7,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Vitamin A on Growth Performance, Antioxidant Status and Blood Constituents in Lactating Grey GoatWeiren Yang, Ping Wang, Yuanqiang Jing et al.Problem statement: It is regarded that vitamin A protects cells from damage by radicals which are believed to contribute to certain chronic diseases and regulates immune function of animals by protection of mucosal epithelium acting as the first defense barrier. All these properties of vitamin A may be attributable to its antioxidant activity. This study was to evaluate the effects … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 27 Dec 2010 · 7,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEpidemiological, Molecular, and Hematological Characteristics of Infection by Anaplasma Spp., Babesia Spp., Ehrlichia Spp., and Hepatozoon Spp., in Shelter Dogs from Northeastern ColombiaMaría Victoria Esteban-Mendoza, Ian Sebastián Murcia-Cueto et al.Tick-borne pathogens represent a significant health problem for dogs, particularly in shelters, where overcrowding and limited veterinary care can facilitate transmission. Although these agents are widely distributed throughout Colombia, epidemiological studies in shelter populations remain scarce. This study evaluated 112 dogs from nine shelters in the Metropolitan Area of Bucaramanga (MAB), Santander, to determine the frequency of infections caused by … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 9 Oct 2026 · 578 accessesView PDFCite
