    Serum Adenosine Deaminase Activity in Cutaneous Anthrax
    (International Scientific Literature Inc., 2014) Sunnetcioglu, M.; Karadas, S.; Aslan, M.; Ceylan, M.R.; Demir, H.; Oncu, M.R.; Aypak, C.
    Background: Adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity has been discovered in several inflammatory conditions; however, there are no data associated with cutaneous anthrax. The aim of this study was to investigate serum ADA activity in patients with cutaneous anthrax. Material/Methods: Sixteen patients with cutaneous anthrax and 17 healthy controls were enrolled. We measured ADA activity; peripheral blood leukocyte, lymphocyte, neutrophil, and monocyte counts; erythrocyte sedimentation rate; and C reactive protein levels. Results: Serum ADA activity was significantly higher in patients with cutaneous anthrax than in the controls (p<0.001). A positive correlation was observed between ADA activity and lymphocyte counts (r=0.589, p=0.021) in the patient group. Conclusions: This study suggests that serum ADA could be used as a biochemical marker in cutaneous anthrax. © Med Sci Monit, 2014.
