title: Activities of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase in the red cells of Japanese acatalasemia blood.
abstract: The activities of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase in the red cells of normal and acatalasemia bloods were compared. Superoxide dismutase activity in the red cells of Japanese acatalasemia blood was higher than in normal control, while glutathione peroxidase activity remained within normal limits. Cyanide sensitivity of superoxide dismutase in the red cells of acatalasemia blood was similar to that in normal control.
