Serum cystatin C in mouse models: a reliable and precise marker for renal function and superior to serum creatinine

Biology
1 answer:
Novosadov [1.4K]1 year ago
4 0

In cases of acute renal failure, serum creatinine (SCR) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) incorrectly predict the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). The possibility exists for serum cystatin C (CYS) to be a more accurate GFR marker. In order to examine the sensitivity of SCR, BUN, and CYS in identifying acute renal failure in mice, this study was conducted.

The conclusion of the study was that In mouse models, CYS can be utilized as an accurate and dependable marker for renal function. In comparison to SCR and BUN, CYS is more sensitive and detects kidney impairment early.

<h3>What is  glomerular filtration rate (GFR)?</h3>

A blood test called a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) measures how well your kidneys are functioning. Glomeruli are little filters found in your kidneys. These filters aid in clearing the blood of waste and extra fluid. How much blood flows through these filters each minute is determined by a GFR test.

To learn more about glomerular filtration rate (GFR) with the help of given link:

In chickens, comb shape is determined by genes at two loci (R, r and P, p). A walnut comb is produced when at least one dominant
mariarad [96]

Answer:

in the obtained options, there is no dominant gene for the crossed pairs, therefore, no answer would be correct, however, when assigning a dominant character to the P gene, the correct answer would be:

E. Rr pp *rrPp

Explanation:

According to the information obtained we deduce:

Comb shape is produced by R and P

Comb of walnuts with an R or a P

Pink comb: 1 dominant P and R at the first locus and 2 recessive at the next locus

Pea comb: 2 recessive at the start and one dominant in the next position

1 single comb: 2 recessive at both loci

Rr pp × rr Pp will produce from the interbreeding: 2 walnuts, 1 single and 1 pea offspring.

We deduce that for the pink comb the genotype is: Rrpp

and for the pea comb it is rrPp

Rr pp × rr Pp generates crosslinks containing RrPp, rrPp, rrpp as children in a 2: 1: 1 ratio.

Kipish [7]

Answer:

<u>State</u> anxiety is the actual experience of apprehension and uncontrolled arousal and <u>trait</u> anxiety is a personality characteristic, which represents a latent disposition to perceive situations as threatening.

Explanation:

<u>State anxiety:</u> It is basically a "right now" feeling which changes from moment to moment, manifesting itself as an interruption of an individual's emotion state, leading to a sudden superversion of emotional equilibrium, caused by external factors of current state. e.g An atheletes emotional state at any given time that is variable from situation to situation.

<u>Trait anxiety:</u> It is a personality disposition which is stable over time. e.g An atheletes disposition to interpreting a situation as threatning and responding with an increase in state anxiety.
