High Ornithine Decarboxylase Activity and Polyamine Levels in Human Colorectal Neoplasia

Article 1986 EN Green

Polyamines are required for cell proliferation, and ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) is the first and probably rate-limiting enzyme in their synthesis. Tissue containing colonic or rectal adenocarcinomas (N = 34) or polyps (N = 6) and noninvolved paired colonic mucosa were obtained from fresh surgical specimens. ODC activity was elevated (mean: 320%) in both the cancer and polyps. In noninvolved colo…
