Summary
Elastase Activity
refers to the
Enzymatic process
by which elastase, a
Protease Enzyme
, breaks down elastin, a key
Structural Protein
in
Connective Tissues
, facilitating
Tissue Remodeling
and repair. This activity is crucial in
Physiological Processes
like
Wound Healing
and
Pathological Conditions
such as emphysema, where excessive
Elastase Activity
leads to
Tissue Destruction
.
