Abstract excerpt
Extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) is a secretory protein that is the major SOD isozyme in extracellular fluids. Plasma EC-SOD levels are distributed in two discrete groups with the rare group having an enzyme with glycine instead of arginine-213, which causes a 10-fold higher serum level. Within the common phenotype group, the urinary EC-SOD level was significantly correlated with the urinary excretion...
