Amfizemli Hastalarda α1-Proteinaz İnhibitörü Aktivitesi ve Fenotiplerinin Belirlenmesi
In our study, functionally active α1-proteinase inhibitor (α1-PI) levels and phenotypeswere determined in sera of patients with emphysema and in that of healthy subjects. Patients were classified according to their smoking habits: Group I consistedof 7 nonsmoking (or limited history of smoking) pati...

Patients were classified according to their smoking habits: Group I consistedof 7 nonsmoking (or limited history of smoking) patients. Group II consisted of heavily smoking 14 patients.
