Changes of serum TK1 level during chemotherapy of patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and its significance / 第二军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective: To understand the significance of serum TK1 level change during chemotherapy of patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Methods: The serum TK1 levels were detected in 37 patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma by enhanced chemiluminecence assay before chemotherapy and one day, four weeks after chemotherapy. Results: The changes of serum TK1 levels were significantly different at different stages of treatment (P<0.01). Conclusion: Our findings indicate that serum TK1 change might be of great value in evaluating the treatment outcomes and predicting recurrence of patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
