Human Gene Set: HP_ABNORMAL_ENZYME_ACTIVITY_IN_CULTURED_FIBROBLASTS


Standard name HP_ABNORMAL_ENZYME_ACTIVITY_IN_CULTURED_FIBROBLASTS
Systematic name M48945
Brief description Abnormal enzyme activity in cultured fibroblasts
Full description or abstract Concentration or activity of an enzyme is above or below the limits of normal in cultured fibroblasts. Fibroblasts are easy to grow in culture and are the main cell type involved in producing extracellular matrix. They are used as a convenient model system for measuring enzyme activity for enzymes that are not expressed in blood cells. Usually, the test is done in fibroblasts for convenience rather than for the investigation of a pathophysiology specific to fibroblasts. []
