Discriminating between adaptive and carcinogenic liver hypertrophy in rat studies using logistic ridge regression analysis of toxicogenomic data: The mode of action and predictive models.
We studied plasma antithrombin III (AT-III), alpha 1-PI, alpha 2-antiplasmin (alpha 2-A), alpha 2-macroglobulin (alpha 2-M) activity, and some blood coagulation and fibrinolysis tests in children with frequently relapsing prednisone-responsive NS.
Distinctive immunohistochemical staining for alpha(2)M could be consistently demonstrated in GST-P-negative HAF, HCA, and HCC induced not only by peroxisome proliferators but also N-nitrosodiethylamine alone.

The patient is heterozygous for an alteration in the A2M gene; this may be responsible for his serum A2M deficiency and may be relevant to the early onset of pulmonary disease in his case.
CF heterozygotes shared the decrease of alpha 1-lipoprotein with the patients while exhibiting small but significant depressions of alpha 2-macroglobulin and IgG.
In the present study we tested two polymorphisms in the alpha-2 macroglobulin gene, a 5 bp deletion at the 5' splice site of exon 18 and a G/A point mutation (V1000I) in exon 24, in a sample of 118 healthy, non demented controls and 238 consecutively recruited gerontopsychiatric patients, diagnosed as: Alzheimer's disease (N=88), mild cognitive impairment (N=32), subjective cognitive complaints (N=54) and depression/other psychiatric disorders (N=64).
