title: Activities of organ characteristic enzymes and noradrenaline and glycogen contents in the Albert hepatoma of C57BL mice.
abstract: Further biochemical characterization of the Albert hepatoma has been performed. The following results were obtained: In spite of often repeated transplantations and a medium growth rate, the Albert hepatoma does still contain organ-characteristic enzymes. We have found significant activities of glucokinase, glucose-6-phosphatase and arginase, and considerable amounts of noradrenaline and glycogen. In addition, it is capable to respond to humoral stimuli, that is, it differs from most of the other hepatocellular malignomas also in this regard.
