Serum deoxythymidine kinase as a progressive marker of hematological malignancy.
The levels of serum deoxythymidine kinase (s-dTK) were investigated for 127 patients suffering hematological malignancy by a sensitive method using [125I]-iododeoxy-uridine as substrate. It was found that the deoxythymidine kinase activity in the sera of these patients was higher than the normal levels in adults. It was also found that the levels of s-dTK in the progressive stage were much high...
متن کاملPurification, biochemical and immunological characterisation of hexosaminidase A from variant AB of infantile GM2 gangliosidosis.
Variant AB of infantile GM2 gangliosidosis is a fatal disease leading invariably to death within the first few years of life, due to the excessive storage of the glycolipids GM2 and GA2 which occurs in the nervous tissue of the patient. Unlike other variants of this hereditary disease, where a deficiency of hexosaminidase A, the ganglioside-GM2-degrading enzyme, could be demonstrated, the varia...
متن کاملP16 methylation in serum as a potential marker for the malignancy of colorectal carcinoma.
UNLABELLED The aim of the present study was to determine if p16 methylation in the serum can serve as a candidate marker for the malignancy of colorectal carcinoma, real-time quantitative methylation-specific PCR (RTQ-MSP) was performed for p16 methylation in serum and the relationship between p16 methylation levels and clinicopathological findings of colorectal carcinoma was evaluated. RESUL...
متن کاملPhenylethylamine as a biochemical marker of tiger.
Pheromones of the tiger happen to be a mixture of amines which are "fixed" by lipids. One of these, found always in all the four tigers investigated, is phenylethylamine. This may be a biochemical marker at a species level.
متن کاملImmunochemical and biochemical investigation of hexosaminidase S.
Hexosaminidase S (HEX S), the residual isozyme found in tissues and body fluids of children with the O variant of GM2 gangliosidosis, was purified from tissues of variant individuals and biochemically and immunochemically characterized. This enzyme has an apparent molecular weight of 103,000 with an isoelectric point of 4.2, is heat labile to the same extent as HEX A, and loses most of its acti...
