Abstract excerpt
In stark contrast to many other blood biomarkers, including a variety of inflammatory cytokines, the main factors affecting sRAGE variation in the general human population are virtually unknown. We examined the contribution of age, body composition, and putative genetic sources to the interindividual variation of sRAGE. Its plasma levels were measured in 1557 apparently healthy individuals from 359 nuclear...
