  • Title: Lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme-1 in the mediastinal yolk sac tumor.
    Author: Ito M, Taki T, Mitsuoka A, Miyake M.
    Journal: Jpn J Surg; 1988 Jul; 18(4):419-22. PubMed ID: 3172584.
    Abstract:
    LDH isozymes in both the serum and tumor tissues of 4 patients with mediastinal yolk sac tumors, and in the cystic content of tumors transplanted into nude mice was examined. Our findings suggested that LDH-1, along with AFP, is an important marker of this tumor, and that LDH isozyme study is necessary for its diagnosis.
