What are the Clinical Implications of Lysozyme Dysregulation?
Dysregulation of lysozyme activity can lead to various clinical conditions. Elevated levels of lysozymes are often observed in diseases such as sarcoidosis, leukemia, and rheumatoid arthritis. On the other hand, a deficiency in lysozyme production can result in chronic infections and impaired immune responses. Understanding lysozyme activity in different diseases can help in developing targeted therapeutic strategies.
