Ask your administrator if you think this is wrong. ====== Macroglobulin ====== A macroglobulin is a [[plasma]] [[globulin]] of high [[molecular weight]]. Elevated levels of macroglobulins (macroglobulinemia) may cause manifestations of excess blood viscosity (as is the case for IgM antibodies in [[Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia]]) and/or precipitate within blood vessels when temperature drops (as in cryoglobulinaemia). Other macroglobulins include [[alpha 2 macroglobulin]], which is elevated in nephrotic syndrome, diabetes, severe burns, and other conditions, while a deficiency is associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. macroglobulin.txt Last modified: 2024/06/07 02:49by 127.0.0.1
