Proteolytic enzyme activities of macrophages and lymphocytes in neurological diseases.

I Goto, N Shinno, Y Kuroiwa.   

Abstract

Studies showed a significant decrease in the macrophage neutral protease and lymphocyte acid protease activities in patients with multiple sclerosis in remission, a significantly decreased neutral protease activity in macrophages in patients with myasthenia gravis and a significantly decreased acid protease activity in macrophages and lymphocytes in patients with polymyositis. No remarkable abnormalities were found in patients with myotonic dystrophy. These results suggest that multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis and polymyositis have an abnormality in immunological function.
