Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was aimed to identify pathological transition of the immature cells diagnosed by soluble LR11 (sLR11). The role and significance of sLR11 was investigated in three types of diseases with increased circulating sLR11 levels. The malignant transition of hematological cells was detected in the diagnosis of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. sLR11 was also important as a marker of pathological smooth muscle cells in pulmonary hypertension. The significance of sLR11 for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease will be further investigated by analysis using the patients’ samples. Thus, sLR11 was identified as a key regulator and a biomarker for the transition to pathological cells in heterogeneous diseases.
