Abstract excerpt
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) has been involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases through excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as through its genetic polymorphism. The aims of this study were to identify the factors affecting MPO serum concentration, to study the familial resemblance of MPO levels and to investigate the association between newly described MPO polymorphisms as well as the...
