    Journal: Vopr Onkol; 1988; 34(6):682-5. PubMed ID: 2839937.
    Abstract:
    Neutrophil level in blood (1 l) and those of certain enzymes in neutrophils were measured in 36 patients with stomach tumors and 40 healthy controls. The range of the enzymes included myeloperoxidase (MPO), beta-glucuronidase (GR), N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), acid phosphatase (AcP), alkaline phosphatase (AlP), lactate dehydrogenase (LD) and dehydrogenase-glucoso-6-phosphoric acid (DG-6-P). Glycogen and lipids were also assayed. The MPO and AcP levels of neutrophils in cancer patients were found to be significantly higher than in healthy controls, whereas the levels of the other enzymes were not. The glycogen and lipid concentrations in neutrophils in cancer patients were significantly lower than in healthy controls.
