Significance of serum phosphohexose isomerase, hexokinase and aldolase in carcinoma ovary.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The serum phosphohexose isomerase (PHI), aldolase and hexokinase activities have been determined in 36 patients of carcinoma ovary with different clinical stages and in 25 healthy normal female subjects. The serum PHI and hexokinase levels were significantly elevated (P less than .001) in all the stages of malignancy while serum aldolase was significantly elevated only in stages III and IV of malignancy. The enzyme levels showed statistically significant response to therapy in stage II patients. The mean values in patients with progression of the disease were not significantly different.

The enzyme activities of Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). prostate fluid LDH isoenzymes phosphohexose isomerase (PHI), Aldolase (ALD) and Hexokinase (HK) were determined in the sera of 77 samples of males. There were 12 cases of carcinoma prostate with metastases, 15 without metastases, 25 with benign prostatic hypertrophy and 25 nontumor. The enzyme activities of nontumor and benign group were sta...
متن کاملSerum phosphohexose isomerase.
In 1933 Lohmann (1) demonstrated the existence of phosphohexose isomerase, the enzyme which mediates the reversible conversion of glucose-6-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate, in dialyzed frog lnuscle extracts and in simple aqueous extracts of yeast, heart, kidney, liver, and brain. Tank6 (2) and, more recently, Somers and Cosby (3) have found this enzyme to be present in pea meal. Slein (4) has...

The glucose analogue, 2-deoxy-n-glucose, has been found to inhibit glycolysis and the growth of yeast (1, 2) and various animal tissues (3-7). It is phosphorylated by hexokinase (8), but is not believed to be further metabolized. Wick et al. (9) have reported that deoxyglucose B-phosphate competitively inhibits the conversion of glucose 6-phosphate to fructose 6-phosphate by a purified phosphoh...

The mechanisms underlying increases in the activity of various enzymes in the serum or plasma are, in general, incompletely understood. It has been stated that the plasma enzymes are derived from cellular elements either in the tissue or in the blood and that the level of circulating enzymes is therefore an index of the rate of disintegration of such cells (8). On the other hand, in some instan...

The biochemical parameters, glucose, sodium, total protein, and the glycolytic enzymes, aldolase, phosphohexose isomerase, and total LDH as well as isozymes of the latter were ascertained for blood serum, perilymph, and, in some instances, cerebrospinal fluid. The three e...
