title: [Activities of dehydrogenases of the pentose phosphate pathway and transketolase in transplanted mouse hepatomas with different growth rates and in organs of tumor carriers].
abstract: The activities of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase and transketolase were studied in the cytoplasmic fractions of transplanted mouse hepatomas differing in their growth rates, and in the liver, spleen and cortical layer of kidneys of tumour carriers and normal mice. It was shown that transplantation of hepatomas changes the activity of the pentose phosphate pathway enzymes in tumour carrier tissues unaffected by neoplasm. Deviations from normalcy were mainly similar to those observed in the hepatomas. The changes in the enzymatic activities were especially well-pronounced in the mice having rapidly growing hepatomas. This may be due to a generalized effect of the tumour on the organism, which is concurrent with malignancy.
