Overview
The authors assessed in tissues taken from the oral cavity the activity ofleukocytic elastase (LE) using an original substrate (Suc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Ala-MCU). Tissue specimens with a measurable LE activity were incubated with the inhibitor of Suc-Lys(Lau-Ala)-Ala-Ala-Pro-NHiBu which has a significant inhibitory activity in tissues with different gradesof inflammation.
