N-acetyl-β-hexosaminidase in chronic tonsillitis and tonsillar hypertrophy.
BACKGROUND The concentration and specific activity of N-acetyl-β-hexosaminidase (HEX) in palatine tonsils with chronic tonsillitis and tonsillar hypertrophy give insight in tonsillar tissue remodeling and constitute a potential marker for diagnosis and treatment of chronic tonsillitis and tonsillar hypertrophy. AIM Determining the concentration and specific activity of N-acetyl-β-hexosaminida...
متن کاملActivity of N-acetyl-beta-D-hexosaminidase (HEX) and its isoenzymes A and B in human milk during the first 3 months of breastfeeding.
PURPOSE Milk contains free and bound oligo- and heteropolisaccharides, which protect newborns against pathogens and have nutritional value. N-acetyl-beta-D-hexosaminidase (HEX), the most active lysosomal exoglycosidase, modify and degrade oligo- and heteropolysaccharides. The objective of our study was to determine HEX activity and isoenzymes A and B in the progression of lactation. MATERIAL ...

متن کاملRole of N-acetyl-β-d-hexosaminidase in cholesteatoma tissue
Cholesteatoma is a destructive disease characterized by the progressive expansion of keratinizing squamous epithelium in the middle ear and mastoid, and chronic inflammatory reaction of the subepithelial connective tissue. N-Acetyl-β-d-hexosaminidase (HEX) catalyzes the release of terminal non-reducing N-acetyl-d-hexosamine residues acting on glucosides and galactosides in glycoproteins, GM2-ga...
متن کاملA Sperm–Plasma β-N-Acetyl-D-Hexosaminidase Interacting with a Chitinolytic β-N-Acetyl-D-Hexosaminidase in Insect Molting Fluid
Insects require molting fluids to shed the old cuticle during molting. β-N-acetyl-D-hexosaminidase, known as Hex1, together with various chitinases, is responsible for degrading the chitin component of the old cuticle. This study showed that another β-N-acetyl-D-hexosaminidase, termed OfHex3, interacted with Hex1 and functioned in the molting fluid, although the homolog of OfHex3 was known as a...
