ATP5MK and Sepsis: We found that the serum levels of glucose, glycine, 3-hydroxybutyrate, creatinine and glycoprotein acetyls (mostly alpha-1-acid glycoprotein, AGP) were significantly (p < 0.05) higher in sepsis compared to healthy sera, whereas citrate and histidine were significantly (p < 0.05) lower in sepsis patients compared to healthy controls.
