Significant decreases of ulinastatin-like immunoreactive substance in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with dementia.

Studies to elucidate changes in the contents of ulinastatin-like immunoreactive substance (UTIRS) and α1 -microglobulin-like immunoreactive substance (α1MIRS) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with dementia were performed. Levels of UTIRS in the dementia group were significantly (p
