Native Rabbit Hemoglobin

• Cat.No.: HP-146R

Specification

• Description: Hemoglobin is involved in oxygen transport from the lung to the various peripheral tissues. The alpha (HBA) and beta (HBB) loci determine the structure of the 2 types of polypeptide chains in adult Hemoglobin. The normal adult Hemoglobin tetramer consists of two alpha chains and two beta chains. Mutant beta globin causes sickle cell anemia. Absence of beta chain causes beta zero thalassemia. Reduced amounts of detectable beta globin causes beta plus thalassemia.

Q&As

Can Haptoglobin levels be influenced by genetic factors?

Yes, genetic variations can affect Haptoglobin levels, and understanding these variations can be crucial for personalized medicine approaches.

How does Haptoglobin contribute to the body's defense against oxidative stress?

Haptoglobin acts as an antioxidant by binding to free hemoglobin, preventing the formation of reactive oxygen species that contribute to oxidative stress.

Are there any specific diseases where monitoring Haptoglobin is particularly crucial?

Conditions such as hemolytic anemias, infections, and chronic inflammatory diseases often require monitoring Haptoglobin levels for diagnostic and prognostic purposes.

How is the Haptoglobin test performed in a clinical setting?

The Haptoglobin test is usually conducted through a blood sample, and the serum or plasma is analyzed for Haptoglobin levels.

Can Haptoglobin be a diagnostic marker for conditions other than hemolysis and inflammation?

Yes, altered levels of Haptoglobin are associated with various conditions, including cardiovascular diseases, infections, and certain cancers.
