Cerebroside sulfotransferase activity in human lung tissues. An elevated level in lung adenocarcinoma.

Cerebroside sulfotransferase activity was demonstrated in particulate fractions from human lung and its carcinoma tissues. The activity in human lung adenocarcinoma was significantly higher than those in a different histological type of carcinoma (squamous cell carcinoma) and in normal tissue from which each carcinoma was derived.
