Table 1. Correlations of proteins from family 18 of glycosyl hydrolase (CHIT1, AMCase and YKL-40) and leukocyte elastase in neutrophils of patients with type 2 diabetes.
Activity/concentration | CHIT1 | AMCase | YKL-40 |
---|---|---|---|
CHIT1 (nmol/h/106 cells) | - | 0.59*** | 0.23ns |
AMCase (nmol/h/106 cells) | 0.59*** | - | 0.14ns |
YKL-40 (ng/106 cells) | 0.23ns | 0.14ns | - |
LE (nmol/min/106 cells) | 0.40*** | 0.25* | 0.33*** |
CHIT1—chitotriosidase, AMCase—acidic mammalian chitinase,YKL-40—chitinase 3-like protein 1, LE—leukocyte elastase, statistical significance:
***—p <0.001,
*—p <0.05,
ns—not significant.
