a pancreatopeptidase (elastase) digest index was devised for a rapid and accurate estimation of protein quality. this index was calculated on the basis of all the amino acids released by an in-vitro elastase digestion, acid hydrolyses of same sample and the residue of enzyme hydrolyzed. the amino acids were determined by thin-layer chromatography. samples used were cooked white kidneybeans, coo...

statement of problem: changes in protein levels, host calls enzymes and inflammatory mediators in gingival crevicular fluid (gcf) are considered as diagnostic indicators of periodontitis.purpose: he aim of the present study was to measure the elastase enzyme activity in gingival crevicular fluid among patients with periodontitis.material and methods: in this study, 52 periodontitis patients (ex...

background: patients with ulcerative colitis (uc) carry autoantibodies such as perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (p-anca). objective: the aim of the present study was to evaluate the target antigens for p-anca in iranian patients with uc. methods: p-anca target antigens including elastase, lactoferrin, cathepsin g, myeloproxidase, lysozyme, and bactericidal permeability increasi...

HIGHLIGHTS Ethanol extract of F. mascrosciadia significantly inhibits collagenase and elastase. syriaca Other studied Ferulago species do not show activity on elastase enzymes.

Introduction Genetics of Elastase In vitro Substrates of Elastase—Clues to in vivo Function? Regulation and Function of Elastase Inhibition by and Evasion of Antiproteases Elastase Release by Neutrophils Involvement of Elastase in Neutrophil Transvascular Emigration into the Interstitium Membrane-bound Elastase: Vectorial Migration of the Neutrophil? Cytotoxicity and Wound Healing Evidence for ...

The article describes and analyzes the results of bioelectrical impedance analysis in patients with chronic pancreatitis obstructive pulmonary disease considering level fecal elastase-1. aim our study was to investigate features Bioelectrical (CP) (COPD) Materials methods. We examined 84 patients: 30 CP 54 comorbid pathology - COPD aged 30-65 years (52.36 ± 1.83 years). Patients were hospitaliz...

Radiolabeled, enzymatically active or chloromethyl ketone-inactivated porcine pancreatic elastase was endotracheally instilled into hamsters. Gel filtration of the bronchopulmonary lavage fluid revealed two major radioactive fractions: one, eluting at 780,000 daltons, corresponding to an alpha-macroglobulin-pancreatic elastase complex, and another, at 68,000 daltons, corresponding to an alpha-1...
