Characteristic Change of Urinary Elastin Peptides and Desmosine in the Aortic Aneurysm

Characteristic Change of Urinary Elastin Peptides and Desmosine in the Aortic Aneurysm

To estimate elastin metabolism in aneurysm, urinary levels of desmosine and elastin peptide in patients (n=23, range 54 to 85 years old) with aneurysm were measured by ELISA and compared between two control groups divided by age (20 years old). The amounts of urinary desmosine and elastin peptide in...

Zusammenfassung:To estimate elastin metabolism in aneurysm, urinary levels of desmosine and elastin peptide in patients (n=23, range 54 to 85 years old) with aneurysm were measured by ELISA and compared between two control groups divided by age (20 years old). The amounts of urinary desmosine and elastin peptide in the aneurysm group were significantly increased compared with those in the order control group (
