Elevated plasma stromelysin levels in arthritis.
1994
Objective. To determine whether plasma concentrations of stromelysin-1 and gelatinase A are increased in patients with various forms of arthritis. Methods. A sensitive and specific sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), which employs a murine monoclonal antibody and a rabbit polyclonal antibody to human stromelysin-1, was used to measure plasma stromelysin-1 in 53 healthy subjects, 113 patients with various forms of arthritis and connective tissue diseases, and 65 patients with cancer. Gelatinase A was also measured in these patients using specific polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies to gelatinase A in an ELISA
