Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is one of the most commonly used dialysis methods, playing a vital role in maintaining the quality of life of patients with end-stage renal disease. However, long-term PD treatment can adversely affect the structure and function of peritoneal tissue. This can lead to failure of peritoneal ultrafiltration, resulting in dialysis failure and necessitating discontinuation...

Lipids play a vital role in biological membranes. They provide a barrier for almost all cellular structures and act as dynamic building blocks, enabling certain membrane proteins to function efficiently and facilitating signal transduction. In addition to their involvement in metabolism and energy conversion, lipids are also involved in various developmental processes, such as cell growth and...

The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was independently developed in 1971 by Engall and Perlmann and by van Weemen and Schuurs with the aim of avoiding the problems associated with radioimmunoassays. Since then, ELISA has become a widely used method for detecting polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies in biological fluids or culture media.   Offering advantages such as high...
