Levels of Cathepsins S and H in Pleural Fluids of Inflammatory and Neoplastic Origin
The International Journal of Biological Markers, 2009 Cathepsins S and H are present in immune cells and tissues and may play a role in the activation of an adoptive immune response. Our goal was to assess their protein levels in pleural fluids from 82 patients who underwent thoracentesis or thoracoscopy ...
