Which of the following group represents negative acute phase proteins: (A) Transferrin, albumin, transthyretin, (B) Haptoglobulin, CRP, albumin, (C) Haptoglobulin, ceruloplasmin, fibrinogen, (D) CRP, a-1 antitrypsin, fibrinogen
Answer is A. Answer- A. Transferrin, albumin, transthyretinAcute phase reaction (acute phase response)-1. Positive acute phase proteinsImpoant examples are C-reactive protein : CRP (Beta 1- globulin), alpha-l antitrypsin,fbrinogen, feftitin, serum amyloid A, hepatoglobulin, ceruloplasmin, and alpha-2 microglobulin.2) Negative acute phase proteinsImpoant examples are albumin, prealbumin, transferrin, transcoin, transthyretin and retinal binding protein.
