In this week's #AskDrDurie, myeloma expert Dr. Brian G.M. Durie answers the question: What are considerations for #myeloma patients regarding immune therapy targets, side effects, and monitoring? https://lnkd.in/g3hr8McF

The journey to diagnosis can be long and expensive, especially with such a complex disease. Exagen strives to decrease the time to diagnosis with innovative biomarkers that provide more in-depth diagnostic information for autoimmune diseases, allowing your doctor to reach an accurate diagnosis quicker. #lupusawarenessmonth #LAM

I am starting a series about understanding biomarkers for personalizing the recovery journey. The first on is a diagnostic biomarker. Also, here is a short video for biomarkers for celiac disease.

Autoimmune Hepatitis Crash Course # 1 4 things to remember: 1. The disease most commonly occurs in women aged 20-40 years. 2. The disease spectrum is very broad. It can go from asymptomatic aminotransferase level elevation to acute liver failure. 3. Lab abnormalities: Elevated IgG level Positive ANA Positive anti-smooth muscle antibody Positive anti-LKM 1 antibody Positive p-ANCA 4. For definitive diagnosis, a liver biopsy has to be done.

#WorldThyroidDay According to data from the WHO, thyroid disease affects over 300 million people worldwide and has become one of the most common diseases in the endocrine system. Although thyroid diseases are not as leading causes of death globally as cancer, their impact on quality of life cannot be ignored, often leading to misdiagnosis or delayed treatment due to hidden symptoms. Early detection and intervention can not only simplify the treatment process, but also greatly reduce the physical and mental burden and economic pressure on patients. C-Luminary Biotech can provide comprehensive thyroid function biomarker detection items to assist in early clinical diagnosis and treatment. #IVD #immunodiagnosis #chemiluminescence #assay #diagnostics #CLIA #hospital #biotech #cluminary #sharay1600 #sharetrybio

Today we’re commemorating Family Heart Foundation’s #FHAwarenessDay. HeFH, or heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, an inherited disease characterized by extremely high LDL-C levels in the blood, which can lead to #heartattack and/or stroke at an early age. We have designed a single-course treatment that permanently inactivates the PCSK9 gene in the liver to reduce disease-driving LDL-C and prevent HeFH’s potential life-threatening symptoms. It’s important to #KnowFH to catch diagnosis as early as possible and help lower the risk of heart disease. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/gmE_ABQ7 

Myofascial edema of gastrocnemius was a prominent characteristic of anti-transcriptional intermediate factor 1-γ (#TIF1-γ) antibody positive #dermatomyositis. Early detection of muscle edema, as well as creatine kinase levels, may be helpful for monitoring disease activity. 🔗https://lnkd.in/dJSit2Tf

CD4+ T cells play a critical role in mediating immune responses. They are functionally divided into several subsets such as Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg. The imbalance of Th1/Th2/Th17/Treg is associated with the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases and oncogenesis. #arigo offers comprehensive Multiplex ELISA Kits to examine Th1/Th2/Th17/Treg balance. These kits make the complex quantification of multiple Th cytokines easy and efficient.   Learn more at https://lnkd.in/eEg5C2xJ #arigoPLEX®# #Multiplex_ELISA_kit# #Th1/Th2/Th17/Treg Balance#

Learn all about ADAR1's control of the innate immune response, how it contributes to diseases, and how it might be targeted for therapy. Check out our ADAR1 proteins and our three ADAR1 Luciferase Reporter Cell Lines to investigate ADAR1 functions and screening ADAR1 inhibitors. #ADAR #innateimmunity #drugdiscovery https://hubs.ly/Q02F54SP0
