Abstract excerpt

Human alpha1-acid glycoprotein (AAG) exists as an heterogeneous population of two or three genetic variants (ORM1 F1 and/or S and ORM2 A) in the plasma of most individuals. The ORM1 and ORM2 variants have a separate genetic origin. AAG belongs to the acute-phase proteins, which, under conditions...
