Parameter
| Biomarker | FGF21 | Full name | fibroblast growth factor 21 | Molecular Type | Protein |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Molecular Formula | / | Molecular Weight | / | Core Functional Dimensions | Prognosis assessment, tissue repair monitoring |
| Disease | pneumonia | Disease Subtypes | / | ||
| Organ | Lung | Test Sample / Technology Platform | Serum (immunoassay technology) | ||
| Pathobiological Mechanisms | It has the functions of metabolic regulation, anti-inflammatory, and tissue repair, and is expressed in large quantities in liver and alveolar epithelial cells during pneumonia, regulating inflammatory response and lung tissue repair | ||||
| Clinical Availability Status | Research validation: used to predict complications and prognosis | ||||
| Notes and Dynamics | Persistent high expression after treatment indicates poor lung tissue repair and possible respiratory failure. A decline indicates improvement | ||||
