In 1990, its primary mission over, Voyager 1 was instructed to point its camera at Earth, or the Pale Blue Dot, 6 billion kilometers away. VOYAGER 1 has been beaming data to Earth since 1977. But members of mission control at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), in Pasadena, California, are as excited as ever.
Cause of Elevated A1c Levels. The higher your blood sugar levels and the longer your blood sugar remains high, the more excess sugar is present in the blood and the more opportunities this excess sugar has to bond to hemoglobin.
Inflammation or Infection. One underlying cause of elevated levels of protein in the blood is a long-lasting infection or chronic inflammation. The chronic stimulation of the immune system caused by the inflammation or an infection causes the consistent production of antibody proteins.he type of protein circulating in the blood is often an antibody. The plasma cell that produces antibodies is part of the immune system, and thus, elevated protein levels in the blood may indicate an immune system disorder. Importantly, a high-protein diet does not cause elevated protein levels in the blood.
