Excess beta-globulin in the blood may indicate kidney disease, acute liver damage. The decrease in the value of beta-globulins accompanies liver diseases, inflammatory processes and tumors. It can also be associated with iron deficiency or blood clotting disorder - the latter may be indicated by coagulation factors belonging to the beta-globulin group.
Globulins- are proteins responsible for immune mechanisms. These proteins are insoluble in pure water, only in dilute s alt solutions. They are an important component of the cytoplasm and are present in blood plasma, milk and muscle tissue. Belong to them.Beta-glubulinsare blood plasma proteins. These include, among others: beta-lipoproteins, plasminogen, trasnrin, factorsblood coagulation , angiotensins, enzymes and immunoglobulins from the IgM and IgA groups.
Biological material for testing there is blood. The test is diagnostic. A single result is for illustration only and cannot be used to diagnose the disease. Always consult your doctor about the result.
Blood beta-globulin values
The correct concentration of beta-globulin is 6.3 - 9.1 g / L (which is 9-13% of the total protein concentration)
Increased values of beta-globulins
Increased beta-globulin concentration occurs in the case of:
- multiple myeloma
- Waldenstoerm disease
- cancer
- of nephrotic syndrome
- liver disease
- amyloidosis
- pregnant women - in the third trimester this symptom is normal
Values of beta-globulins below the norm
Reduction in beta-globulin concentration is observed in the case of:
- inborn disorders of protein synthesis
- chronic damage to the liver parenchyma
- states of starvation, malnutrition, malnutrition
- digestive and absorption disorders
- intestinal inflammation
- of nephrotic syndrome
- skin inflammation
- burns
- chronic bleeding
- liver damage
- cancer
- hyperthyroidism
- sepsis
