Two cDNA clones were isolated, one corresponding to the mRNA coding for lactate dehydrogenase-M (LDH-M), the other to the mRNA coding for lactate dehydrogenase-H (LDH-H). The cDNA inserts consist of the entire open reading frame for LDH-M and a partial sequence, from amino acid 117 to 332, for LDH-H. Using these two clones as probes we demonstrate that: (a) the abundance of mRNA is muscle-type ...

The present study was aimed to evaluate the therapeutic potential of Pimpinella tirupatiensis (Pt) by assaying the activities of selective mitochondrial enzymes in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. Diabetic rats showed a significant (p < 0.01) reduction in the activities of oxidative enzymes Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), Malate dehydrogenase (MDH), Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) and isocitr...

Female and male adult Wistar rats were fed standard chow or a simplified cafeteria diet for one month. Then, the rats were killed and the white adipose tissue (WAT) in four sites: perigonadal, retroperitoneal, mesenteric and subcutaneous (inguinal) were sampled and frozen. The complete WAT weight in each site was measured. Gene expression analysis of key lipid and glucose metabolism enzymes wer...

This research aimed to compare albumin, creatinine, and lactate dehydrogenase levels in patients with non-severe severe covid-19 infections. investigation was conducted at Babylon provincial hospitals private laboratories labs from October 2020 December 2021. The included 30 infection, divided into two groups. Each group contains 15 depending on infection severity. serum samples were separated ...

The L-(+)-lactate dehydrogenase from Rothia dentocariosa strain 17931 is activated by fructose 1,6-diphosphate and inhibited by adenosine 5'-triphosphate. The enzyme has a molecular weight of 120,000. In these respects, it resembles the lactate dehydrogenase of Actinomyces viscosus.

Lithium and nickel present low toxicity, but are able to cause alterations in different tissues. The toxic effects of lithium and nickel at different cellular levels were assessed using two inorganic chemical species: lithium chloride and nickel(II) chloride. Mouse neuroblastoma cell cultures (Neuro-2a) were exposed to both compounds for 24 h. The cytotoxic effects evaluated were cell prolifera...

Lactate dehydrogenase (LD: EC 1.1.1.27) is the most important clinically of several dehydrogenases occurring in human serum. Lactate dehydrogenase is cytoplasmic in its cellular location and in any one tissue is composed of one or two of five possible isoenzymes. While many of its clinical applications involve quantification of one or more specific serum isoenzymes, an estimate of total LD is r...

in this study 110 samples of amniotic fluid of sheep at different stage of pregnancy were assessed for creatinine (cr), alkaline phosphatase (alp), aspartate aminotransferase (ast), creatin kinase (ck), lactate dehydrogenase (ldh) and arginase. significant increase (p

Primary myelofibrosis shows histological and pathogenetic overlap with essential thrombocythemia and polycythemia vera. Several diagnostic classifications have been proposed for primary myelofibrosis, although little is known about their clinical utility. In a comparison of three recent classifications, overall concordance was 79%. Inclusion of raised serum lactate dehydrogenase categorized 9% ...
