Myeloperoxidase Activities in Polymorphonuclear Leukocytes in Lumbar Disc Disease
Journal of Neurological Sciences (Turkish), 09/29/09
Senoglu M et al. – In this preliminary study, the authors had found increased Myeloperoxidase level in the lumbar disc patients with radiculopathy. The significantly high level of Myeloperoxidase might indicate a systemic inflammatory response to impingement of the nerve root caused by lumbar disc herniation. This led us to think that Myeloperoxidase might play a role in the activity status of the disease.
