Findings reveal the association between prolidase activity, oxidative stress, and inflammation in silicosis, suggesting potential implications.

To explore the relationship between prolidase activity, oxidative stress, and inflammation in individuals with silicosis.
Analyzed serum prolidase activity in silica-exposed individuals.
Measured oxidative stress and inflammatory markers.
Compared findings in individuals diagnosed with silicosis.
Elevated prolidase activity correlated with increased oxidative stress.
Inflammatory markers were also higher in those with silicosis.
Suggests prolidase may play a role in lung injury due to silica exposure.

Ergün et al. (2026) studied this question.
