Blood is composed of a liquid called blood plasma containing large particles ranging from plasma proteins to blood elements. Plasma volume is the result of the balance of 2 forces: 1That pulling water into capillaries due to osmotic pressure 2That forcing water from capillary due to hydrostatic pressure.

1- Transportation: It transports: Dissolved gases such O2 and CO2.
Metabolic waste products such as water, CO2, uric acid, urea,
creatine … etc. Hormones. Enzymes. Absorbed nutrients Metabolites Plasma proteins WBCs and RBCs 2- Defense Defending materials include WBCs, antitoxins, agglutinins and precipitins. The immune bodies (antibodies) are chiefly γ globulins. Functions of the blood (continue)
3- Regulation of body temperature (thermoregulation):
4- Controls pH
pH of blood must remain in the range of 7.35 - 7.45
5- Removes toxins from the body
kidneys filter all of the blood in the body 36 times/ 24 hours.
Toxins removed through urine and sweat.
6- Regulation of body fluid electrolytes
6- Regulation of water balance
Blood It is a fluid organ Its major component is water, in which are dissolved important electrolytes and gases. It is composed of a liquid called blood plasma containing large particles ranging from plasma proteins to blood elements. The blood elements suspended within the plasma are: 1- Red blood cells (corpuscles) (RBCs) (erythrocytes) 2- White blood cells (WBCs) (leuckocytes) 3- Blood platelets (thrombocytes)
Plasma Pale-yellow in color due to proteins Milky color after a fatty meal
Serum = plasma - fibrinogen and other clotting factors
90% of the volume is represented by water
Plasma (continue) In this water are dissolved: 1- The plasma proteins (7% of the plasma volume)
2- Inorganic salts (0.9%)
3- Organic constituents other than proteins (2%) such as lipids, glucose, …. etc.
Blood plasma volume is of 2.7-3.0 liters
The plasma volume is the result of the balance of 2 forces:
1- That pulling water into capillaries
due to osmotic pressure 2- That forcing water from capillaries due to hydrostatic pressure Two tubes of EDTA anticoagulated blood. Right tube: Contains freshly drawn blood. Left tube: After standing, the RBCs have settled at the bottom of the tube. Plasma proteins Complex mixture of simple proteins (such as albumin, globulins and fibrinogen) and conjugated proteins such as lipoproteins and glycoproteins. All the simple plasma proteins are synthesized in liver except gamma globulins. Often mentioned blood proteins Blood protein Normal level % Albumins 3.4 - 5.4 g/dl 60% Globulins 2.0 - 3.5 g/dl 35% Fibrinogens 0.2 - 0.45 g/dl 4% Regulatory proteins <1% Albumin It has the lowest molecular weight (70,000). Functions: 1- It is main contributor to colloid osmotic pressure 2- It acts as a carrier for fatty acids, lipids, steroid hormones, trace elements and many drugs When serum albumin is decreased (hypoalbuminemia) Soft tissue edema is found as a result of a decrease in colloid osmotic pressure. Hypoalbuminemia occurs in liver and kidney diseases. Globulins Heterogenous complex mixture of α, β and γ globulins Orginate from liver and other tissues such as reticulo-endothelial system. Functions: 1- Alpha globulins are used for transporting thyroxine and retinol (vitamin A). 2- Beta globulins are the iron-transporting protein. 3- Most antibodies are gamma globulins. Albumin It has the lowest molecular weight (70,000). Functions: 1- It is main contributor to colloid osmotic pressure 2- It acts as a carrier for fatty acids, lipids, steroid hormones, trace elements and many drugs When serum albumin is decreased (hypoalbuminemia) Soft tissue edema is found as a result of a decrease in colloid osmotic pressure.

Multiple Waldenström's myeloma macroglobulinemia
Gamma globulin is composed of tens of thousands of unique
antibody molecules. Fibrinogen 4% is fibrinogen and this is essential in the clotting of blood.
Regulatory proteins
Regulatory proteins which make up less than 1% of plasma
proteins are proteins such as enzymes, proenzymes and hormones. Other types of blood proteins include:
β-2-microglobulin, β-lipoprotein, γ-globulin proteins and
c-reactive protein (CRP).
The serum proteins can be separated by 1- Salting out method: By using various solvents or electrolytes (or both) to remove different protein fractions in accordance with their solubility characteristics. Using varying concentrations of sodium or ammonium sulfate. 2- Electrophoresis and ultracentrifugation method: Soaked in a slightly-alkaline salt solution using a buffer of 0.1 N sodium diethyl barbiturate Albumin moves closest to the positive electrode then α1-, α2-, β1-, β2- and γ- globulin. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis Liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/Ms) Measures the mass-to-charge ratio of charged particles LC-MS/MS
Current research regarding blood plasma proteins is
centered on performing proteomics analyses of serum/plasma in the search for biomarkers. الى اللقـــــاء القــــــــادم
