Significance of a sixth lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme (LDH6).
An unusual band on the cathodic side of the membrane was found on lactate dehydrogenase electrophoresis of blood specimens from 18 patients. Fifteen patients died shortly after the finding. No specific cause was found for the unique band, but most of the patients had arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease with acute passive hyperemia of the liver, and prerenal azotemia.
