Growth Differentiation Factor-15 Is a Novel Biomarker Predicting Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.

abstract：:Two methods for quantitating polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) accumulation in inflammatory skin lesions were studied. The lesions were produced in rats by intradermal injections of different dilutions of zymosan-activated plasma (ZAP). PMN accumulation in the skin lesions was estimated by determination of (1) homolog...
