Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein analysis

Assay

Pathology, Clinical Pathology

Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein is synthesized primarily in the liver. Levels are low in healthy humans and even lower in healthy animals. In most disease states (including cancer) the infection and inflammation levels increase from 2 to 20-fold. 

The biological role is unclear, but it appears to regulate immunity and the inflammatory response. 

Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein has been identified as one of the four potentially useful circulatory biomarkers for estimating the five-year risk of all-cause mortality.

This is an automated serum analysis to support nonclinical research studies.

About our nonclinical animal research models: We provide the utmost care for our research animals and actively pursue advances in animal welfare. As well as ensuring the highest scientific, ethical and regulatory standards, selection of appropriate animal research models for development research is critical to developing safe and effective treatments, devices and products that protect and save lives. Just as we have ethical committee oversight for human trials, we have ethical committees overseeing all aspects of our global animal care and use programs. All of our core, nonclinical facilities are accredited by AAALAC. Learn more about our commitment to replacing, reusing and refining nonclinical research models.
