Measuring soluble ICAM-1 in African populations.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2014

Abdi Abdirahman I, Muthui Michelle, Kiragu Esther, Bull Peter C

Abstract excerpt

The level of plasma soluble ICAM-1 (sICAM-1) has been associated with the pathogenesis of several diseases. Previously, a commercial antibody was reported not to recognize an ICAM-1 allele known as ICAM-1kilifi prevalent among African populations. However, that study was based on 19 samples from African Americans of whom 13 had the wild type allele, five heterozygotes and one homozygote. Here, we compare plasma...
