Proteolytic Enzymes in Relation to Skin Inflammation

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology ((HEP,volume 87 / 1))

Abstract

Inflammation is a series of events which in part follow each other and in part are contemporary. The acute phase is followed by resolution or the healing phase. A variety of enzymes and their natural inhibitors are known to operate in the inflammatory process.
