Abstract

The evaluation of some indicators of blood proteolytic systems and their role in the development of endothelial dysfunction in noninflammatory form of chronic prostatitis abacterial (CAP III B) was performed. The association between the activity of blood proteolytic systems and endothelial damage in patients with CAP III B was examined. Indicators of blood kallikrein-kinin system and renin-angiotensin system (activity of kallikrein, alpha1-proteinase inhibitor, alpha2-macroglobulin, total argininesterase activity, activity of angiotensin converting enzyme, prekallikrein content) were evaluated in 32 patients with CAP III B before and after occlusive bronchial test. It was established that a violation of endothelium-dependent vasodilation is accompanied by an imbalance of pro- and antiproteolitic blood systems.
