Granulocyte collagenase and elastase and the plasma protease inhibitors in human pus

M Delshammar et al. Surgery. 1978 Mar.

Abstract

Granulocyte collagenase and elastase was demonstrated in human pus using specific antisera. The enzymes were complexed by alpha1-antitrypsin and alpha2-macroglobulin but also were present as free proteases. All purulent exudates showed free elastolytic and collagenolytic activity.
