High activity of mitochondrial glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase in insulinomas and carcinoid and other tumors of the amine precursor uptake decarboxylation system

The activity of the mitochondrial glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.5), the enzyme unique to the glycerol phosphate hydrogen shuttle, was measured in normal human tissues and tumors and compared with the activity of succinate dehydrogenase, another enzyme that transfers electrons to ubiqui...
