Abstract
The activity of nucleases and concentrations of highly important metal ions in T and B lymphocytes were examined. The source of lymphocyte was the blood of patients with chronic renal failure and activity of enzyme as well as ion concentrations were compared to the control group. Concomitant with the increase in enzyme activity was an increase of metal ion concentrations assayed in both T and B lymphocytes isolated from patients with renal disease. The data suggest that the enhancement of nuclease activity is a result of increased enzyme polypeptide synthesis and its stimulation by metal ions. Utilization of the nuclease test for monitoring uraemic toxicity is considered.Entities:
