A New Method for The Quantification of Neutrophil and Eosinophil Cationic Proteins in Feces: Establishment of Normal Levels and Clinical Application in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Abstract
Objectives The aims of this study were 1) to develop a valid method for the measurement of the eosinophil proteins eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) and eosinophil protein X (EPX) and neutrophil proteins myeloperoxidase and human neutrophil lipocalin (HNL) in feces and 2) to investigate their potential role as disease activity markers in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Methods Feces samples were obtained from 44 apparently healthy individuals (HIs), 18 patients with IBD (11 with ulcerative colitis [UC] and seven with Crohn's disease [CD]), and three with collagen colitis. The granulocyte markers were measured using immunoassays in supernatants from processed feces. Results ECP, myeloperoxidase, and, to a lesser degree, EPX and HNL were bound to the solid part of feces. However, feces homogenized in an extraction buffer containing the cationic detergent N-cetyl-N,N,N-trimethylammonium bromide allowed an efficient recovery of the proteins (i.e., up to 100-fold increased levels compared to homogenization in saline). All four proteins were stable for at least 7 days at +6 degrees C and at least 3 days at +22 degrees C. The normal fecal geometric mean (95th percentile) levels of ECP, EPX, myeloperoxidase, and HNL were estimated to be, respectively, 1.69 microg/g (6.41), 0.57 microg/g (1.72), 3.54 microg/g (8.77), and 1.97 microg/g (4.91). Markedly increased feces levels of all markers (p Conclusions The method described here takes into account the molecular properties of the gra…

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
