Elastase inhibitory activity in serum of patients with thyroid dysfunction.

Clinical chemistry - 1 Jan 1991

Wortsman J, Matsuoka L Y, Kueppers F

Abstract excerpt

Dermal elastic fiber fragmentation and decreased fiber density are characteristic cutaneous abnormalities in myxedema. We therefore evaluated elastase inhibitory activity in serum in thyroid dysfunctional states by measuring the protease inhibitor alpha 1-antitrypsin (A-1-AT), as well as by directly determining the inhibition of porcine pancreatic elastase activity. Overall there was a strong correlation between...
