  • Title: A cancer-associated, fast, homoarginine-sensitive electrophoretic form of serum alkaline phosphatase.
    Author: Ehrmeyer SL, Joiner BL, Kahan L, Larson FC, Metzenberg RL.
    Journal: Cancer Res; 1978 Mar; 38(3):599-601. PubMed ID: 626966.
    Abstract:
    Serum from patients with a variety of cancers often (p = 70%) contains a characteristic electrophoretic form of alkaline phosphatase detectable by cellulose polyacetate electrophoresis. The lower prevalence of this electrophoretic form in presumably healthy individuals (p = 7%) and noncancer hospitalized patients (p = 30%) suggests that it may be useful as a diagnostic or monitory marker.
