Myeloperoxidase: a new target for the treatment of stroke?
Myeloperoxidase is an important inflammatory factor in the myeloid system, primarily expressed in neutrophils and microglia. Myeloperoxidase and its active products participate in the occurrence and development of hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke ...

Inhibition of Myeloperoxidase Activity in Cystic Fibrosis Sputum by Peptide Inhibitor of Complement C1 (PIC1). [PDF]
Myeloperoxidase is the major peroxidase enzyme in neutrophil granules and implicated in contributing to inflammatory lung damage in cystic fibrosis. Free myeloperoxidase is present in cystic fibrosis lung fluid and generates hypochlorous acid.

The relation of serum myeloperoxidase to disease progression and mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). [PDF]
Myeloperoxidase is a strong oxidant stored in primary granules of neutrophils with potent antibacterial and proatherogenic properties. Myeloperoxidase has been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Comparing hs-CRP and MPO Biomarkers of Subclinical Atherosclerosis in Metabolic Syndrome Patients
Cardiovascular disorders have been linked to myeloperoxidase, an enzyme generated from leukocytes. MPO creates an antibacterial system and has been many correlations between MPO, hs-CRP and cardiovascular disease.

The oxidative status in patients with chronic kidney disease [PDF]
An excess of free radicals accompanies the development of renal pathologies and causes numerous concomitant complications and syndromes. The most common of these are cardiometabolic syndromes in patients with chronic kidney disease.
