Genomic DNA from two families exhibiting the K-variant phenotype of serum
butyrylcholinesterase was amplified by PCR and sequenced to determine the molecular …

Peyronie's disease is a fibromatosis of the tunica albuginea. While trauma is believed to be
the inciting event, the exact pathophysiology of this condition is unknown. In vitro analysis of …

The disc electrophoresis method of Davis (16) does not permit the separation of all 5
isoenzymes of LDH. The method was modified by omitting the stacking and sample gels …

Measurement of serum cholinesterase(EC 3.1. 1.8, acylcholine acyl-hydrolase) has been
used to assess liver function, monitor excessive exposure to the anticholinesterase …

Two families segregating for the atypical (E1a) allele at cholinesterase locus 1 are
described. Unusual results for dibucaine inhibition led to the recognition of a new allele …

Peyronie's disease is a fibromatosis of the tunica albuginea which affects up to 2% of men.
Plaque development is believed to result, at least in part, from fibroblast proliferation and …

PURPOSE: Peyronie's disease is a fibromatosis resulting in scarring of the tunica albuginea.
While the inciting event is believed to be trauma to the erect penis, little is understood about …

Peyronie's disease is a fibrotic disorder, a condition characterized by cellular proliferation
and excess extracellular matrix production. Previous work in related conditions has …

The fluoride variant of human butyrylcholinesterase owes its name to the observation that it
is resistant to inhibition by 0.050 mM sodium fluoride in the in vitro assay. Individuals who …

A family (HJ pedigree) segregating for the A and F alleles at cholinesterase locus 1 is
described. Apparent anomalous results led to the recognition of a new allele (E1j) also …
