-Albumin
Clinical implications |
-hypoalbuminemia (low albumin) may be caused by liver disease,
-nephrotic syndrome, malnutrition and others. -Hyperalbuminemia (high albumin) is almost always caused by dehydration. |

-Ceruloplasmin
Clinical implications |
aceruloplasminemia:
characterized by hyperferritinemia with iron overload |
|
Globular Protein Transporter =
|
-Ceruloplasmin
|
|
-Hemoglobin
Clinical implications |
- decreased amount of hemoglobin molecules,
as in anemia or decreased ability of each molecule to bind oxygen at the same partial pressure of oxygen, e.g., -hemoglobinopathies -sickle-cell disease -thalassemia. |

|
|
-Myoglobin
Clinical implications |
Myoglobin is a sensitive marker for muscle injury.
-released myoglobin is filtered by the kidneys and - is toxic to the renal tubular epithelium, -which may cause acute renal failure. |

-Transferrin
Clinical implications |
A patient with an increased serum transferrin level often suffers from iron deficiency anemia.
Pt w decreased plasma transferrin can suffer from -iron overload diseases -protein malnutrition. An absence of transferrin results from a rare genetic disorder known as atransferrinemia; a condition characterized by anemia and hemosiderosis in the heart and liver that leads to many complications, including heart failure |

-Transthyretin
Clinical implications |
-TTR misfolding and aggregation is known to be associated with the amyloid diseases:
-senile systemic amyloidosis (SSA), -familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP), -familial amyloid cardiomyopathy (FAC). |
