Glycoprotein Serum Concentrations Assessed By 1H-NMR are Increased in Patients With High Blood Pressure.

Patients with hypertension present systemic, subclinical inflammation as assessed by liver-derived glycoprotein A, B, and F serum levels. These results support the effect of hypertension on the mechanisms of systemic inflammation. Hypertension-associated systemic inflammation plays a role in hypertension-associated vascular injury and probably in hypertension-induced damage to other organs.
