Anti-Elastase Neutrophil [Clone ELA10-101.5] - 1.0 mg

Neutrophil elastase is a major neutral protease present in human neutrophils and is released by neutrophils following stimulation with a variety of stimuli. It is believed to be a major mediator of the lung destruction seen in emphysema. In addition to elastin, neutrophil elastase can cleave other biologically active proteins such as fibrinogen and antithrombin and is released by neutrophils during clot formation.
