Serum adenosine deaminase: isoenzymes and diagnostic application.
Human adenosine deaminase (ADA; EC 3.5.4.4) consists of three isoenzymes: ADA1, ADA1+CP, and ADA2. We developed an electrophoretic technique to distinguish between these three isoenzymes. The isoenzyme pattern was studied in tissue and cell homogenates, as well as in serum from normal subjects and from patients with increased serum ADA who had either hepatitis, infectious mononucleosis, tubercu...
متن کاملQuantitative changes in adenosine deaminase isoenzymes in human colorectal adenocarcinomas.
Several reports have suggested that a decrease or absence of adenosine deaminase complexing protein (ADCP) is consistently associated with cancer. However, in other studies, decreased as well as increased ADCP levels were found. In the present study, we investigated ADCP levels in 37 colorectal adenocarcinomas and correlated the results with clinicopathological characteristics in individual car...
متن کاملAdenosine deaminase (ADA) isoenzymes ADA1 and ADA2 in biological fluids.
We read with great interest the editorial by GAKIS [1] about the extreme importance of the adenosine deaminase (ADA) isoenzymes ADA1 and ADA2 on the homeostasis of 2' deoxyadenosine and adenosine, especially when monocytes and macrophages are infected by intracellular microorganisms. Serum ADA activity is increased in various conditions such as liver disease, tuberculosis, typhoid, infective mo...
متن کاملSerum adenosine deaminase levels in hepatic disorders
The diagnosis of organ disease is aided by measurement of number of nonfunctional plasma enzymes characteristic of that organ/tissue. The amount of enzymes released depends on the degree of cellular damage, the intra-cellular concentration of enzymes, and the mass of the effected tissue. The concentration of enzyme released reflects the severity of damage. Once the presence of hepatic dysfuncti...
متن کاملSerum adenosine deaminase activity in cutaneous anthrax
BACKGROUND Adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity has been discovered in several inflammatory conditions; however, there are no data associated with cutaneous anthrax. The aim of this study was to investigate serum ADA activity in patients with cutaneous anthrax. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixteen patients with cutaneous anthrax and 17 healthy controls were enrolled. We measured ADA activity; periphera...
