Preview- It`s obvious that, lactate dehydrogenase is a tumour marker of the non-Hodgkins lymphoma, leukaemia, Ewings sarcoma and the testicular tumours. Lymphoma, cancer that begins in cells of the immune system. There are two basic categories of lymphomas. One kind is Hodgkin lymphoma (i.e., hodgkin disease), which is marked by the presence of a type of cell called the Reed-Sternberg cell (i.e., reed cell, or sternberg cell) (i.e., reed-sternberg cell). The other category is non-Hodgkin lymphomas, which includes a large, diverse group of cancers of immune system cells. Non-Hodgkin lymphomas can be further divided into cancers that have an indolent (slow-growing) course and those that have an aggressive (fast-growing) course. These subtypes behave and respond to treatment differently. Both Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas can occur in children and adults, and prognosis and treatment depend on the stage and the type of cancer. Sarcoma is a cancer of the bone, cartilage, fat, muscle, blood vessels, or other connective or supportive tissue. Marker is a diagnostic indication that disease may develop.
- Evidently, subjects will be stratified by origin of cancer, Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH (Lactic dehydrogenase (LDH))) status, and number of metastatic sites. LDH, one of a group of enzymes found in the blood and other body tissues, and involved in energy production in cells. Cell is the individual unit that makes up the tissues of the body. All living things are made up of one or more cells. An increased amount in the blood may be a sign of tissue damage and some types of cancer or other diseases. Also called lactate dehydrogenase and lactic back breaker dehydrogenase. Metastatic, having to do with metastasis (i.e., secondaries), which is the spread of cancer from the primary site (place where it started) to other places in the body.
- It`s possible to observe, in small cell (i.e., oat cell) lung (i.e., pulmo) cancer lactate dehydrogenase and neuron (i.e., nerve cell, or neurocyte)-specific enolase (i.e., phosphopyruvate hydratase) seem to be important prognostic factors that may reflect not only tumor (i.e., neoplasm) load but also ontogenesis (i.e., ontogeny) rate. Lung, one of a pair of organs in the chest (i.e., pectus) that supplies the body with oxygen, and removes carbon dioxide from the body. Small cell lung cancer is an aggressive (fast-growing) cancer that forms in tissues of the lung and can spread to other parts of the body. The cancer cells look small and oval-shaped when looked at under a microscope. Neuron is a type of cell that receives and sends messages from the organic structure to the brain and back to the body. The messages are sent by a weak electrical current. Also called nervus (i.e., nerve) cell. Tumor is an abnormal mass of tissue that results when cells divide more than they should or do not die when they should. Tumors may be benign (not cancer), or malignant (cancer). Also called neoplasm (i.e., new growth, or tumor). Tumor load, refers to the number of cancer cells, the sizing of a tumor, or the amount of cancer in the body. Also called tumour load. Lung cancer, cancer that forms in tissues of the lung, usually in the cells lining air passages. The two main types are small cell lung cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. These types are diagnosed based on how the cells look under a microscope.
