Desmosine as a biomarker of elastin degradation
by Dr Jody M.¦W. van den Ouweland and Dr Rob Janssen Desmosine is a promising biomarker for estimating elastin degradation activity in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients and provides a means to test the beneficial effects of therapeutic interventions. LC-MS/MS has emerged as a goldstandard method for accurate and sensitive measurement of desmosine in various […]
