Circulating Concentrations of Follistatin-Like 1 in Healthy Individuals and Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome as Assessed by an Immunoluminometric Sandwich Assay

Abstract

The ILMA permits detection of FSTL1 in human serum and plasma. We expect that the favorable preanalytic characteristics of FSTL1 and the reference limits defined here for apparently healthy individuals will facilitate future studies of FSTL1 as a biomarker in various disease settings, including ACS.
