[Activity of pyruvate kinase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in polymorphonuclear granulocytes of patients with atopic dermatitis in the active stage and in remission]. / Aktywnosc kinazy pirogronianowej i dehydrogenazy glukozo-6-fosforanowej w granulocytach wielojadrzastych u chorych z atopowym zapaleniem skóry w okresie zmian czynnych i w okresie remisji.

ABSTRACT

The activity of granulocyte pyruvate kinase and glucose-6-phospho dehydrogenase in 12 patients with severe atopic dermatitis in active stage of disease and in remission was investigated. It was found that in active stage the activity of both enzymes was not significantly different than in healthy individuals. In remission pyruvate kinase activity was significantly decreased and glucose-6-phospho dehydrogenase activity was found to be non significantly decreased.
