Erratum pages inserted inside back cover. / Bibliography: leaves 163-200. / xvi, 215 leaves, [13] leaves of plates : ill. ; 30 cm. / Title page, contents and abstract only. The complete thesis in print form is available from the University Library. / Measurement of elastin derived peptides may be a powerful tool to evaluate mechanisms of elastin breakdown in vivo and in vitro. In human studies EDP levels may provide an early indicator of subjects undergoing increased elastin degradation that may lead to emphysema, and may serve as a biological marker of the effectiveness of therapeutic antielastases. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Adelaide, Dept. of Pathology, 1994
