متن کاملArginase activity determination. A marker of large bowel mucosa proliferation.
Arginase activity of the intestinal mucosa was tested as a proliferative marker in the adenoma-carcinoma sequence. The enzyme activity was determined by an end-point colorimetric method with L-arginine as substrate. Arginase activity was evaluated in 430 biopsy samples of large bowel mucosa, polyps and cancer tissue. The activities (U/g protein, mean +/- SE; n) were: normal mucosa 83.2 +/- 7.3;...
