Measuring Myeloperoxidase Activity in Biological Samples
BACKGROUND Enzymatic activity measurements of the highly oxidative enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO), which is implicated in many diseases, are widely used in the literature, but often suffer from nonspecificity and lack of uniformity. Thus, validation and standardization are needed to establish a robust method that is highly specific, sensitive, and reproducible for assaying MPO activity in biologi...

متن کاملCounting and measuring ultrastructural features of biological samples.
Ultrastructural features of cells can be fractions of a micrometer in diameter, and electron microscopy is needed to resolve them to a degree that is compatible with stereological techniques. Because the focal depth of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images is thousands of times greater than the thickness of the sections used with TEM, virtual sectioning of sections suitable for TEM is n...
متن کاملMethods for measuring myeloperoxidase activity toward assessing inhibitor efficacy in living systems.
Myeloperoxidase aids in clearance of microbes by generation of peroxidase-mediated oxidants that kill leukocyte-engulfed pathogens. In this review, we will examine 1) strategies for in vitro evaluation of myeloperoxidase function and its inhibition, 2) ways to monitor generation of certain oxidant species during inflammation, and 3) how these methods can be used to approximate the total polymor...
متن کاملA rapid bioluminescence assay for measuring myeloperoxidase activity in human plasma
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a circulating cardiovascular disease (CVD) biomarker used to estimate clinical risk and patient prognosis. Current enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) for MPO concentration are costly and time-intensive. Here we report a novel bioluminescence assay, designated MPO activity on a polymer surface (MAPS), for measuring MPO activity in human plasma samples using the b...
