ESTEROLYTIC ACTIVITY OF ELASTASE [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1969 The esters of L-alanine were found to be excellent substrates for elastase. The pH-dependence study using two methyl esters of this substrate showed the participation in the mechanism of an ionizing group with an apparent pK of 6.85 and a decrease of the activity at pH's greater than 10 (that could correspond to an apparent pK of 11.4).

How phagocytic cells kill bacteria: Lessons from a professional killer
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.How phagocytic cells ingest and kill bacteria has been studied for more than a century, but many questions remain unanswered. The study of the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum brings new answers, and new questions. Professional phagocytic cells such as neutrophils and macrophages, as well as free‐living soil amoebae like Dictyostelium discoideum, employ

Peripheral Neutrophil Activation and Extracellular Trap Formation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.Markers of neutrophil activation are increased in plasma during ALS, and markers of NET formation associate with ALS survival. ABSTRACT Objectives Peripheral neutrophil levels in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) inversely correlate with survival, suggesting a role for neutrophils in disease progression.
