Collagenase is a component of the specific granules of human neutrophil leucocytes
Abstract
Azurophil and specific granules were isolated from human polymorphonuclear neutrophil leucocytes. Collagenase was almost exclusively a component of the specific granules. This finding is in contrast with the distribution of other proteolytic enzymes, which are localized in the azurophil (or lysosomal) granules.
