Changes in lactate dehydrogenase isozyme-X activity induced by cadmium administration.
Subcutaneous administration of cadmium caused a decrease in lactate dehydrogenase isozyme-X (LDH-X) activity in testicular extracts of treated mice. The determination of the activity of this enzyme serves as a reliable and convenient method to assess the testicular damage induced by cadmium.
