Clinical Utility of Ammonia Concentration as a Diagnostic Test in Monitoring of the Treatment with L-Asparaginase in Children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
L-asparaginase (ASP) is an enzyme used as one of the basic regimens in the acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) therapy. Because of the possibility of the enzyme inactivation by antibodies, monitoring of ASP activity is essential. The aim of the study was to examine if plasma concentration of ammonia, a direct product of the reaction catalyzed by ASP, can be used in the assessment of ASP activity...
متن کاملThe Effects of Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyase on Leukemic Lymphocytes in Vitrol
Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, which irreversibly deaminates phenylalanine and tyrosine, markedly inhibited the growth of human leukemic and murine L5178Y lymphoblasts in vitro but had a negligible effect on resting (nondividing) normal lymphocytes. These studies also demonstrated that phenylalanine ammonia-lyase inhibited DNA synthesis in leukemic cells at least as effectively as did asparaginas...

متن کاملThe toxicity of very prolonged courses of PEGasparaginase or Erwinia asparaginase in relation to asparaginase activity, with a special focus on dyslipidemia.
We prospectively studied the incidence and clinical course of hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia during very prolonged use of asparaginase in relation to levels of asparaginase activity in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. We also evaluated the incidence of pancreatitis, thrombosis, hyperammonemia and central neurotoxicity and their association with asparaginase activity le...
متن کاملEffect of Acinetobacter glutaminase-asparaginase treatment on free amino acids in mouse tissues.
Acinetobacter glutaminase-asparaginase (AGA) and Escherichia coli asparaginase were compared for their effects on plasma and tissue levels of amino acids, ammonia, and glutamyl transferase activity in the mouse. Free asparagine was depleted similarly in plasma and tissues by both enzymes. AGA treatment produced partial depletion of glutamine concentrations in muscle, spleen, small intestine, an...
