Abstract
We have investigated the phosphatidylserine metabolism in human adenocarcinoma. This phospholipid is involved in the regulation of several enzymic activities of plasma membranes; therefore it could be useful to state if some alteration of tumour membranes propriety depend on variation of phosphatidylserine synthesis. Our results make evident that in such human tumours the phosphatidylserine synthesis is greatly augmented.
