Tests
The determination of the amount of hepatitis D virus IgM antibody in a biological specimen.
Tests
Hepatitis testing uses a sample of your blood to see if you have a current viral hepatitis infection or had one in the past. Hepatitis is a type of liver disease that causes liver inflammation (swelling) and damage. There are several types of hepatitis. Each affects the body and is spread in different ways.
Tests
The determination of the surface antigen reaction of a biological specimen to the Hepatitis A virus.
Glossary Term
Having two different allelic forms of a gene, one inherited from each parent, on each of the two homologous chromosomes.
Indicators
The smallest and densest lipoproteins, containing a high proportion of protein. They are synthesized in the liver as empty proteins and they pick up cholesterol and increase in size as they circulate through the bloodstream. Because HDL can remove cholesterol from the arteries, and transport it back to the liver for excretion, they are seen as "good" lipoproteins.
Tests
A chemiluminescence immunoassay capable of detecting very low levels of troponin T in serum.
Indicators
A semi-essential amino acid (children should obtain it from food) needed in humans for growth and tissue repair, Histidine is important for maintenance of myelin sheaths that protect nerve cells and is metabolized to the neurotransmitter histamine. Histamines play many roles in immunity, gastric secretion, and sexual functions. Histidine is also required for blood cell manufacture and protects tissues against damage caused by radiation and heavy metals. (NCI04)
Tests
The determination of the number of mismatch between the study subject and his or her donor for the human leukocyte antigen, class I, group A (HLA-A).
Indicators
This gene plays a role in both immune responses and histocompatibility processes.
Tests
The identification of the type of human leukocyte antigen, class II, antigen-D-related 52 (HLA-DR52), in a sample.
Indicators
This gene plays a role in both DNA binding and transcriptional modulation.
Indicators
An amino acid derivative and homolog of cysteine containing an additional methylene bridge. Homocysteine is a product of methionine metabolism and elevated plasma levels are associated with cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer disease and several metabolic diseases.
