BIOMARKERS FOR MONITORING INTERVENTION THERAPIES FOR DIABETES
摘要
<p>The use of N-linked glycosylation pattern of serum proteins as a biomarker for evaluating the efficacy of intervention therapies for diabetes is disclosed. As disclosed herein, changes in the N-linked glycosylation of total plasma proteins precedes and predicts the decrease in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) associated with successful treatment of diabetes. Therefore, measuring changes in N-linked glycosylation of total serum plasma proteins over time may be used as a biomarker to evaluate or access the efficacy of an intervention therapy for diabetes.</p>
