Indicators

Phenytoin

A hydantoin derivative and a non-sedative antiepileptic agent with anticonvulsant activity. Phenytoin potentially acts by promoting sodium efflux from neurons located in the motor cortex reducing post-tetanic potentiation at synapses. The reduction of potentiation prevents cortical seizure foci spreading to adjacent areas, stabilizing the threshold against hyperexcitability. In addition, this agent appears to reduce sensitivity of muscle spindles to stretch causing muscle relaxation.

Tests

Plasmin Alpha-2 Antiplasmin Complex Measurement

The determination of the amount of plasmin alpha-2 antiplasmin complex in a sample.

For professionals

Indicators

Platelet-Activating Factor Acetylhydrolase

Platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (441 aa, ~50 kDa) is encoded by the human PLA2G7 gene. This protein is involved in platelet-activating factor metabolism.

Tests

PMS1 Homolog 2 Measurement

The determination of the amount of PMS1 homolog 2 present in a sample.

For professionals

Indicators

PMS2 Gene

This gene is involved in mismatch repair and mutations in the gene result in hereditary non-polyposis colon cancer 4.

Indicators

Prostaglandin-H2 D-Isomerase

Prostaglandin-H2 D-isomerase (190 aa, ~21 kDa) is encoded by the human PTGDS gene. This protein is involved in the conversion of prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) to prostaglandin D2 (PGD2).
