Vmax activities of pyruvate kinase
in homogenates
of healthy skin and melanoma

Vmax activities were measured spectrophotometrically according to the following reaction:

Tumor M2-PK concentrations
in homogenates
of healthy skin and melanoma

In melanoma tissues pyruvate kinase activities as well as the amount of Tumor M2-PK (dimeric form) increase.

Tumor M2-PK concentrations
in EDTA plasma samples
from patients with melanoma
