Hi Carebear~In answer to your question on Globulins... Albumin and globulin are the main proteins found in blood. Globulins act as transport proteins, and are the building blocks for antibodies, glycoproteins, lipoproteins, clotting factors and other components of the immune system.

So how would a lack of protease lead to low levels of globulins? Amino acids are the building blocks of globulins. If a person lacks any of the amino acids, the body will not be able to make globulin. Protease break down dietary proteins and release essential amino acids. We have been discussing the lack of phenylalanine (essential amino acid) in MS. The previous study I posted found that MS patients also lack tryptophan, leucine, valine and isoleucine. (Post #26)

Others have questions as well, but it seems as if the majority here are not willing to listen to how the symptoms and scientific findings in MS relate back to protease. Uric acid, neopterin etc.. can all be clearly explained as well. There was to be no "sales pitch." *edit*

These posts, I believe, explain the connection to MS and lymphoma.
