Neutrophil-mediated injury to endothelial cells. Enhancement by endotoxin and essential role of neutrophil elastase [PDF]
, 1986 The neutrophil has been implicated as an important mediator of vascular injury, especially after endotoxemia. This study examines neutrophil-mediated injury to human microvascular endothelial cells in vitro. We found that neutrophils stimulated by formyl-

Inhibitory Effect of Elastase on the Glomerular Capillary Basement Membrane Thickening of the Experimental Congenital Diabetic Mice (N.S.Y. Mice) [PDF]
, 1981 1981-03Elastase is an elastin lytic enzyme that inhibits the deposition of fat on arterial walls and suppresses fat buildup. The changes in the renal glomerular basement membrane were observed over 30days of elastase administration in N. Y. S.
