Lactate overproduction in platelets of subjects affected with myeloproliferative disorders. 1985

G Leoncini, and M Maresca, and U Armani, and A Piana

In platelets of patients affected with myeloproliferative disorders, glycolytic and glycogenolytic flux have been examined. Results of studies on glucose uptake, glycogen breakdown and lactate formation have been reported. No difference in glucose uptake between controls and patients was observed, but in patients a higher lactate formation was always noted in the presence or absence of exogenous glucose, in correlation with a higher glycogen breakdown rate. Results could be explained by modified regulation mechanisms on glycogen phosphorylase.

D009196 Myeloproliferative Disorders Conditions which cause proliferation of hemopoietically active tissue or of tissue which has embryonic hemopoietic potential. They all involve dysregulation of multipotent MYELOID PROGENITOR CELLS, most often caused by a mutation in the JAK2 PROTEIN TYROSINE KINASE.

D005947 Glucose A primary source of energy for living organisms. It is naturally occurring and is found in fruits and other parts of plants in its free state. It is used therapeutically in fluid and nutrient replacement.

D006003 Glycogen
D006019 Glycolysis A metabolic process that converts GLUCOSE into two molecules of PYRUVIC ACID through a series of enzymatic reactions. Energy generated by this process is conserved in two molecules of ATP. Glycolysis is the universal catabolic pathway for glucose, free glucose, or glucose derived from complex CARBOHYDRATES, such as GLYCOGEN and STARCH.
