title: [Isoenzyme BB of creatine phosphokinase: its place in pulmonary pathology (author's transl)].
abstract: From the sera or pleural effusions of 29 patients among 58 suffering of bronchopulmonary cancer we found a CK BB isoenzyme (CK EC 2.7.3.2). There is no false positive in sera of our group control. Lung homogenates and alveolar macrophages are found to be rich with this fraction. Is this isoenzyme a cancer marker for the broncho-pulmonary tract?
