If there is a decrease in the amount of plasma proteins, then overall health is affected. There are three main plasma proteins-albumins, globulins, and fibrinogen-that contribute to the composition of plasma. Osmotic pressure and the transport of fatty acids, thyroid hormones, some steroid hormones, and other substances will decrease. The amount of antibodies transported by the plasma will also decrease. Finally, the blood will not be able to clot properly because of the decrease of certain proteins in the plasma.

Nonspecific plasma proteins that bind to pathogens are:Non-phagocytic leucocytes - Basophil. which contains granules of toxic chemicals that can digest foreign microorganisms. They are involved in allergic response.Mast Cells - They are similar to basophils, and contain inflammatory chemicals including histamine and seratonin that cause blood vessels near a wound to constrict.Complement proteins are plasma proteins which have a role in nonspecific and specific defenses.
