Changes of serum thymidine kinase in children with acute leukemia.
BACKGROUND Thymidine kinase (TK) is involved in nucleic acid synthesis and is therefore considered to be an important proliferation tumor marker. Our main goal was to determine the significance of elevated TK levels as a relapse marker during follow-up with child patients suffering from acute leukemia. PATIENTS AND METHODS TK serum levels in 38 children with acute leukemia (34 lymphoblastic, ...
متن کاملThymidine kinase activity in Dictyostelium discoideum.
Thymidine kinase activity is present in soluble and mitochondrial fraction of axenically grown cells of Dictyostelium discoideum. The overall activity does not change significantly during development.
متن کاملIncreased serum creatine kinase.
A 38-year-old white male taxi driver was referred to a lipid clinic by his general practitioner for management of combined hyperlipidemia. He was a smoker with a 20 packyear history. His father had died of myocardial infarction at age 55 years. Examination of this patient revealed a blood pressure of 136/99 mmHg and a body mass index of 29 kg/m, with no clinical signs of hyperlipidemia. Cholest...
متن کاملThymidine uptake, thymidine incorporation, and thymidine kinase activity in marine bacterium isolates.
One assumption made in bacterial production estimates from [3H]thymidine incorporation is that all heterotrophic bacteria can incorporate exogenous thymidine into DNA. Heterotrophic marine bacterium isolates from Tampa Bay, Fla., Chesapeake Bay, Md., and a coral surface microlayer were examined for thymidine uptake (transport), thymidine incorporation, the presence of thymidine kinase genes, an...
متن کاملSerum Thymidine Kinase Activity: Analytical Performance, Age-Related Reference Ranges and Validation in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
BACKGROUND To date no age-related reference ranges are available for serum thymidine kinase (TK1) activity. Being a proliferation marker, it may be used as a prognostic marker in malignant diseases, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Our aim was to establish age-specific reference ranges for TK1 and examine its utility as a screening marker in CLL, a disease of the elderly. METHODS...
