[Zinc and enzymes in the synovial fluid and blood in various types of rheumatism].
It appears that in rheumatoid arthritis and, to a lesser extent, in the other forms of inflammatory rheumatism, the level of zinc in the blood serum is lowered, whereas synovial zinc is increased. In the synovial fluid, there is a very significant correlation between enzyme activity and the concentration of zinc. Practical experiments aimed at demonstrating in vitro the action of zinc on lacticodeshydrogenase, acid phosphatase, lysozyme and beta-glucuronidase did not produce the anticipated results and do not explain the metabolic disorders of zinc seen during inflammatory rheumatisms.
