Study of the activity of lymphocyte adenosine deaminase in chronic renal failure.
The activity of lymphocyte adenosine deaminase was studied in 28 undialysed uremic patients, 19 patients on maintenance hemodialysis and 32 normal subjects. A statistically significant decrease of the enzyme activity was found both for the undialysed and dialysed patients.
