title: [Determination of cyclic AMP and protein kinases in the diagnosis of colonic tumors].
abstract: The cAMP level and the activity of cAMP-dependent and independent protein kinases were measured in adenomatous polyps, villous polyps (premalignant condition) and adenocarcinomas. The cAMP concentration and ratio of cAMP level versus cAMP-independent casein kinase activity were significantly lower in adenocarcinomas compared to adenomatous polyps, thus permitting differentiation between benign and malignant lesions. The cAMP versus cAMP-dependent histone kinase level ratio was used as a test for differentiation between malignancies and premalignant condition. It was markedly lower in adenocarcinomas than in villous polyps.
