A histochemical study of hydrolytic and oxidative enzymes in an eosinophilic granuloma of parotid gland region [PDF]
We experienced a case of eosinophilic granuloma in soft tissue, and demonstrated its patterns of hydrolytic and oxidative enzymes histochemically. Neutrophils were rich in acid phosphatase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase.

Lysophosphatidic acids are new substrates for the phosphatase domain of soluble epoxide hydrolase
Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) is a bifunctional enzyme that has a C-terminus epoxide hydrolase domain and an N-terminus phosphatase domain. The endogenous substrates of epoxide hydrolase are known to be epoxyeicosatrienoic acids, but the endogenous ...

Predictors of osteoclast activity in patients with sickle cell disease
Background Bone changes are common in sickle cell disease, but the pathogenesis is not fully understood. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP) type 5b is produced by bone-resorbing osteoclasts.
