Soluble lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) extracted from brain, skeletal and cardiac muscle and liver of rats, and purified isoenzymes LDH-1 and LDH-5, were incubated with sodium deoxycholate. Deoxycholate almost totally inactivated isoenzyme LDH-5 (A4), whereas it left isoenzyme LDH-1 (B4) unaffected. Tissue lactate dehydrogenase was inactivated to different degrees depending on the origin o...

LDH-C4 is a lactate dehydrogenase that catalyzes the interconversion of pyruvate with lactate. In mammals the, Ldh-c gene was originally thought to be expressed only in testis and spermatozoa. Plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae), belonging to the genus Ochotona of the Ochotonidea family, is a hypoxia tolerant mammal living at 3000-5000 m above sea levelon the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. We found that ...

Isozyme Profiles and Specific Organ Damage. CORNISH, HERBERT H., BARTH, MARY L., and DODSON, VERNON N. (1970). Toxicol. Appl. Pharmacol 16,41 l-423. Serum lactic dehydrogenase isozymes have been utilized as a means of detecting specific organ damage in rats. The serum LDH isozyme patterns seen in response to liver or kidney damage are markedly different, thus these patterns were utiiized to ide...

Background: Serum parameters as prognostic parameters are studied widely. We aim to examine the prognostic significance of the serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) level and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Methods: Total of 253 TNBC patients from Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center who underwent treatment between January 2004 and December 2009 was conduct...

Serum lacticodehydrogenase (LDH) is commonly increased in patients with haematopoietic malignancies and has been shown to be a prognostic factor in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and myeloma. We have examined the LDH isoenzyme content in serum of 326 patients, including 252 patients with NHL (202 at diagnosis and 50 at relapse), 28 patients with Hodgkin's disease, 17 patients with C...

OBJECTIVE The authors surveyed the prevalence and the clinical character of lumbar disc herniation (LDH) in Korean male adolescents, and the usefulness of current conscription criteria. METHODS The data of 39,673 nineteen-year-old males that underwent a conscription examination at the Seoul Regional Korean Military Manpower Administration (MMA) from October 2010 to May 2011 were investigated....

Although most studies have reported that high serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels are associated with poor prognosis in several malignancies, the consistency and magnitude of the impact of LDH are unclear. We conducted the first comprehensive meta-analysis of the prognostic relevance of LDH in solid tumors. Overall survival (OS) was the primary outcome; progression-free survival (PFS) and ...

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been widely used as an important subset of solid base catalysts. However, developing low-cost, small-sized LDH nanoparticles with enhanced surface catalytic sites remains a challenge. In this work, silica aerogel (SA)-supported, small-sized Mg-Al LDH nanosheets were successfully prepared by one-pot coprecipitation of Mg and Al ions in an alkaline suspension...

The sperm-specific lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme (LDH-X) appearing in electrophoresis between LDH-3 and LDH-4 is characteristic of human mature testis and spermatozoa. 1,21 Our previous studies have shown that detection of LDH-X by starch gel electrophoresis is quite suitable for forensic demonstration of semen from vaginal swabs. ) This communication reports the successful application of the...
