Distribution of LDH isozymes of human thyroid tissues obtained from
patients with hyperthyroidism, adenomatous goiter, non-malignant and malignant
tumors was studied by paper (Oxoid) electrophoresis and consequent tétrazolium
staining. The shift of the LDH isozyme distribution towards the M type pattern
was greatest in cancer (adenocarcinoma) and less in hyperthyroidism and follicular
adenoma. The normal thyroid tissue pattern was not symmetrical, but slightly
shifted towards the H type. The hyperthyroid and adenomatous goiter tissues
showed typical symmetrical patterns, and papillary adenoma tissues exhibited a
shift towards the H type distribution.
