iTRAQ-based proteomic identification of leucine-rich  -2 glycoprotein as a novel inflammatory biomarker in autoimmune diseases

Abstract: LRG represents a novel serum biomarker for monitoring disease activity during therapy in autoimmune patients, particularly useful in patients with active disease but normal CRP levels.

“…Although LRG is able to identify HF in this study, it must be acknowledged that LRG levels are also increased in other diseases. 25,29 This is a limitation that may preclude the use of LRG in the general population as a single marker indicator of HF. Given the difficulties in predicting and diagnosing LVDD and DHF, we suggest that LRG may prove useful in a clinical setting as part of a multimarker approach in combination with routine clinical assessment.…”

“…Serum leucin rich-α2-glycoprotein concentrations were significantly elevated in RA patients as compared to healthy controls and decreased after anti-tumour necrosis factor therapy. Furthermore, serum leucin rich-α2-glycoprotein concentrations correlated with disease activity in RA (Serada, Fujimoto et al 2010). …”

“…LRG is an (almost equal to) 50 kDa glycoprotein and contains repetitive sequences with a leucinerich motif [76]. It has been reported to be a novel biomarker in autoimmune disease [77]. Serum LRG concentrations were significantly elevated (14.24 ± 8.08 lg/ ml) in active UC patients compared with in patients in remission (5.34 ± 2.60 lg/ml) (P \ 0.0001) and healthy controls (3.07 ± 1.42 lg/ml) (P \ 0.0001) and also correlated well with disease activity (colitis activity index [CAI]).…”
