Lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme levels in collagen disease. 1977

A T Ozel, and G Ibrahim, and E A Awad, and L A Fish

Serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) isoenzymes were determined in 27 patients with collagen disease and 88 normal subjects. The mean value for LDH-3 isoenzyme was 20.4 +/- 3% in normal controls, 31.47 +/- 8.9% in patients with collagen disease who showed activity of the disease, and 20 +/- 3.74% in patients in complete remission. Six patients who had positive rheumatoid factor showed higher LDH-3 levels. There was also some correlation between the activity of the disease and serum LDH-3 level in patients with connective tissue disorders.

D003095 Collagen Diseases Historically, a heterogeneous group of acute and chronic diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, progressive systemic sclerosis, dermatomyositis, etc. This classification was based on the notion that "collagen" was equivalent to "connective tissue", but with the present recognition of the different types of collagen and the aggregates derived from them as distinct entities, the term "collagen diseases" now pertains exclusively to those inherited conditions in which the primary defect is at the gene level and affects collagen biosynthesis, post-translational modification, or extracellular processing directly.
