  • Title: Serum lysozyme in inflammatory bowel disease.
    Author: Nugent FW, Mallari R, George H, Ridley N.
    Journal: Gastroenterology; 1976 Jun; 70(6):1014-6. PubMed ID: 1269861.
    Abstract:
    Serum lysozyme (muramidase) concentrations were measured in three groups of patients: control, ulcerative colitis and proctitis, and Crohn's disease. The mean +/-SD for each group was: control, 7 +/- 2; ulcerative colitis and proctitis, 7 +/- 2; and Crohn's disease, 10 +/- 4. Although a significant difference was seen between values in patients with Crohn's disease and values observed in those with ulcerative colitis or control patients, an important overlap was found between these groups. Further studies are necessary to explain the disparate results between this study and previous reports.
