Elastase inhibitory capacity of purified canine alpha-1-antitrypsin.

Abstract excerpt

In a previous study, isoelectrofocusing of serum from liver-diseased and healthy dogs revealed three different types of the acute phase protein, alpha-1-antitrypsin: Pi (protease inhibitor) F, Pi I and Pi S. Moreover, accumulated alpha-1-antitrypsin was found immunohistochemically in liver sections from dogs with chronic liver disease, predominantly in association with Pi I in serum. The present study was made to...
