Abstract Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by chronic inflammation of synovial joints. Anticitrullinated protein autoantibodies are detected by the CCP test in early disease and predict the development of erosive disease as well as extraarticular manifestations. We recently reported that many RA patients have anti-citrullinated albumin (ACA) ...
Nano-flow cytometry is a revolutionary technology that has the potential to transform early disease detection and diagnosis. Nano-flow cytometers are able to detect and analyze individual nanoparticles, including extracellular vesicles and viruses, with high sensitivity and accuracy. This makes them ideal for detecting diseases at their earliest stages, when they are most treatable. How does ...

Muscle loss / muscle wasting is the condition in which, proteolytic systems for protein degradation are activated, while protein synthesis decreases, thereby resulting in muscle fiber shrinkage. This condition may be due age or might be due some chronic conditions like Diabetes mellitus (DM) or chronic kidney disease (CKD). Extreme muscle wasting often results in weight loss. Such a condition is ...
