TNF-alpha induces changes in LDH isotype profile following triggering of apoptosis in PBL of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas

Based on the possibility of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha to perform multiple and opposite biologic effects, we simultaneously investigated in vitro its effects on intracellular lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)-H and LDH-M isoenzyme activity and morphological characteristics following induction of ap...

Zusammenfassung:Based on the possibility of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha to perform multiple and opposite biologic effects, we simultaneously investigated in vitro its effects on intracellular lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)-H and LDH-M isoenzyme activity and morphological characteristics following induction of apoptosis in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients (NHL) prior to and after the end of applied chemotherapy. TNF-alpha showed a significant increase ( p
