Serum aldolase and hexokinase activities in breast carcinoma.

ABSTRACT

Serum aldolase and hexokinase levels were determined in 197 serum samples. There were 152 breast carcinoma cases comprising 26 of group I, 82 of group II and 44 of group III, 25 normal healthy female subjects and 20 benign. Activity of both the enzymes was normal in benign group but significantly higher activities were observed in advanced disease as compared to controls (P less than .001). The enzyme activity levels showed good correlation to the groups of the disease.
