“…Consequently, several pathologies with distinct etiologies reported disturbed expression and/or activity of this enzyme. For instance, altered levels of ENO-1 has been demonstrated in Alzheimer’s disease (Castegna et al, 2002; Butterfield and Lange, 2009; Owen et al, 2009), rheumatoid arthritis (Kinloch et al, 2005; Montes et al, 2011), systemic sclerosis (Terrier et al, 2010; Mehra et al, 2013), type 2 diabetes (Li et al, 2013, 2015), systemic lupus erythematosus (Hawro et al, 2015; Li et al, 2018), hepatic fibrosis (Peng et al, 2013; Zhang et al, 2013), and fungal and bacterial infections (Bergmann et al, 2013; Funk et al, 2016; Ji et al, 2016). In addition, ENO-1 has been found to be overexpressed in more than 20 types of human cancer (Altenberg and Greulich, 2004).…”
