Background

MPO(myeloperoxidase) is a peroxidase enzyme presented in the azurophilic granules of polymorphonuclear (PMN) leukocytes and monocytes. Plasma concentration of MPO can be used as a specific marker of PMN activation. MPO catalyzes the production of hypochlorous acid (HClO) from hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and chloride anion (Cl-, or the equivalent from a non-chlorine halide). This enzymatic system plays an important role in human defense against microorganisms. The serum/plasma MPO levels have been associated with a variety of clinical conditions including inflammatory diseases, atherosclerosis, ischaemic stroke, hypertension, heart failure, risk of cardiovascular events and so on.
