Oxidative stress (OS) has greatly interested the research community in understanding
damaging processes occurring in cells. OS is triggered by an imbalance between reactive …

A number of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species are produced during normal metabolism
in human body. These species can be both radical and non-radical and have varying …

Being one of the main proteins in the human body and many animal species, albumin plays
a decisive role in the transport of various ions—electrically neutral and charged molecules …

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are potentially harmful and heterogeneous
molecules derived from nonenzymatic glycation. The pathological implications of AGEs are …

For nearly 50 years the proximal tubule (PT) has been known to reabsorb, process, and
either catabolize or transcytose albumin from the glomerular filtrate. Innovative techniques …

Human serum albumin (HSA) is an opulent, non-glycosylated, most versatile carrier protein
in plasma possessing multiple functions. HSA has the ability to interact with a variety of …

The exposure of cells, tissues and extracellular matrix to harmful reactive species causes a
cascade of reactions and induces activation of multiple internal defence mechanisms …

Serum albumin concentration (CP) is a remarkably strong prognostic indicator of morbidity
and mortality in both sick and seemingly healthy subjects. Surprisingly, the specifics of the …

During long standing hyperglycaemic state in diabetes mellitus, glucose forms covalent
adducts with the plasma proteins through a non-enzymatic process known as glycation …

In this work, 26 proteins of different structure, function and properties are investigated by
Raman spectroscopy with 488, 532 and 1064 nm laser lines. The excitation lines were …
