Glycated Albumin refers to albumin that are bonded to glucose.Albumin is the most common type of protein found in the blood and isreplaced in the body about every 20-25 days. Albumin helps in thedistribution of nutrients, hormones, and some drugs in the body, andto maintain the shape of cell. Glycated albumin has been described asa novel biomarker for the detection and management of diabetes. Ithas also gained importance in glycemic monitoring for diabetesmellitus. Albumin is present in the blood, as well as in body fluidsand organs. Albumin provides the body with the protein needed to bothmaintain growth and repair tissues.
Therecent explosion of medical research on GlycatedAlbumin‘s ability tosuccessfully monitor and control diabetes has opened up a whole newand more thorough level of knowledge about how this importantmolecule affects the progression and outcome of the disease. Themolecular basis of glycated albumin's effect on diabetes isrelatively simple and predicated on a simple but profoundobservation-the fact that locating units of albumin, a majorcomponent of the human innate immune system, become less sticky asthey age.
