SERUM AND URINARY LYSOZYME (MURAMIDASE) IN MONOCYTIC AND MONOMYELOCYTIC LEUKEMIA [PDF]
Markedly increased quantities of lysozyme have been found in the serum and urine (ranging to 2.6 g per day) of ten consecutive cases of monocytic and monomyelocytic leukemia.

Orally administered β-glucan improves the hemolytic activity of the complement system in horses [PDF]
Background and Aim: Immune-modulating molecules mainly act on innate immune cells, which are central to early defense against invading pathogens and contribute to developing adaptive immunity. Yeast-extracted β-glucan, a model immune-modulating molecule,

Crystal Structure of Human Lysozyme Complexed with N-Acetyl-α-d-glucosamine
Human lysozyme is a natural non-specific immune protein that participates in the immune response of infants against bacterial and viral infections. Lysozyme is a well-known hydrolase that cleaves peptidoglycan in bacterial cell walls.

Muramidase in Polycythemia Vera [PDF]
Abstract The serum muramidase levels of 45 patients with polycythemia vera were found to be significantly elevated above the values in 20 normal subjects. The patients with polycythemia vera who were studied included those with active disease, those controlled with myelosuppressive agents and those in the spent phase.

Resistance to mucosal lysozyme compensates for the fitness deficit of peptidoglycan modifications by Streptococcus pneumoniae. [PDF]
The abundance of lysozyme on mucosal surfaces suggests that successful colonizers must be able to evade its antimicrobial effects. Lysozyme has a muramidase activity that hydrolyzes bacterial peptidoglycan and a non-muramidase activity attributable to ...
