Synthesis of 1,2-Azaborines and the Preparation of Their Protein Complexes with T4 Lysozyme Mutants
Published on: March 25, 2017
Abstract:
Serum lysozyme was assessed in 43 healthy subjects and 183 leprosy patients. Significantly elevated level of lysozyme was observed in sera of leprosy patients as compared to normal individuals. The enzyme levels in leprosy of different types showed elevations in following order, Erythema Nodosum Leprosum (ENL) greater than Lepromatous greater than Borderline greater than Tuberculoid. Enzyme levels in patients with inactive stage were lower than in untreated patients. The serum lysozyme level correlated well with the activity disease in leprosy--clinically and bacteriologically. Thus the estimation of serum lysozyme can be used as one of the parameters of activity of the disease.

Serum lipids are fats and fatty substances in the blood and are crucial for various bodily functions, including energy storage, cellular structure, and hormone production. Serum lipids consist of cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids.
Cholesterol is a soft, fat-like substance found in all body cells. It is crucial for producing hormones, vitamin D, and substances that aid...
