  • Title: Increased urinary excretion of acidic mucopolysaccharides in exophthalmos.
    Author: Winand RJ.
    Journal: J Clin Invest; 1968 Dec; 47(12):2563-8. PubMed ID: 4235688.
    Abstract:
    The excretion of mucopolysaccharides normally found in urine (chondroitin, chondroitin sulfates A and C, keratosulfate, and heparitin sulfate) is increased approximately twofold in patients with progresive exophthalmos. A threefold elevation of total serum mucopolysaccharides is also found. These increases are unrelated to thyroid function.
