Article Synopsis
- Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common type of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, but little is known about the enzyme activities of catalase (CAT), carbonic anhydrases (CA), and xanthine oxidase (XO) in MF patients.
- A study compared the enzyme activities of 32 MF patients to 26 healthy controls, revealing that CAT and CA activities were significantly lower in MF patients (p < 0.001), while XO activity showed no significant difference (p = 0.601).
- The researchers suggest that measuring these enzyme levels could serve as a useful diagnostic tool for mycosis fungoides.
