Clinical Usefulness of Determining the Concentration of Neopterin

Pteridines, 2011
Neopterin is one of biochemical markers of immune activity, which seems to be useful in monitoring inflammatory diseases. Increased serum concentration of neopterin is observed in conditions with cell-mediated immune response involvement.
