[Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity in patients with chronic inflammatory lung diseases]
Abstract:
The activity of the key enzyme of the pentoso-phosphate cycle--glucoso-6-phosphatedehydrogenase was examined in patients with chronic inflammatory pulmonary diseases. Results indicate that with exacerbation of the process in the bronchopulmonary system there occurs an increase of the activity of the mentioned enzyme. Examination of the activity of this enzyme may be of value for optimization of treatment measures in patients with inflammatory pulmonary diseases.
