Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]

Overview

  • The presence of elastase in the blood serum is caused by serine proteinase hydrolyzing elastic occuring in the endothelial cells, macrophages, and granulocytes.
Reference Range
In Plasma 60-110 ng/ml
In Pleural Effusion 480-2900 ng/ml

Causes of decreased elastase in blood serum

  • Hyperglycemia[1]
  • Prednisolone[2]

Causes of increased elastase in blood serum[3][4]
