Inhibition1

  • Neutrophil myeloperoxidase may strengthen healing skin by crosslinking new basement membrane

    Where this hypothesis actsLate neutrophil phase during basement membrane assembly in skin with insufficient peroxidasin activity

    What is proposedDisable catalytic activity to test its contribution to crosslink formation

    With whatNot stated in the record

    HowChange catalysis independently while preserving neutrophil numbers, the cytokine profile and TGF-β signal duration

    Possible resultExpected loss of the crosslinking and shear-resistance benefit of the late neutrophil phase
