Acid phosphatase in Gaucher's disease.
Abstract Increased acid phosphatase activity in the serum and tissues of patients with Gaucher's disease has now been recognized for two decades, but as yet no relation has been established between the enzyme and the etiology and progress of the disease.

The Study of Serum Prostate Specific Antigen and Phosphatase Isoenzymes Activity as Diagnostic Parameters in Patients with Prostate Cancer in Nigeria [PDF]
Serum activities of Acid Phosphatase (ACP) and Prostatic Acid Phosphatase (PAP) are still employed in most hospitals in Nigeria for the diagnosis of prostate cancer, because of lack of resources for prostate specific antigen (PSA) assay.

Automated Determination of Acid Phosphatase
Abstract A procedure is presented for the automated determination of acid phosphatase activity in biological materials using the Robot Chemist. Although either phenylphosphate and α-naphthylphosphate may be used as substrate in this analysis, the procedure is described in detail for serum acid phosphatase using α-naphthylphosphate in 0.1

The relationship between histochemical enzyme activities of brain tumors and clinical features of the patients [PDF]
Human brain turnors removed from 126 patients were histochemically examined and following results were obtained. 1. In general, alkaline phosphatase activity is decreased in poorly differentiated gliomas, but is not related to the tumor cell infiltration.

LptO (PG0027) is required for lipid A 1-phosphatase activity in Porphyromonas gingivalis W50 [PDF]
Porphyromonas gingivalis produces outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) rich in virulence factors, including cysteine proteases and A-LPS, one of the two lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) produced by this organism. Previous studies had suggested that A-LPS

Plants require phosphorus for growth, which they acquire from soil. This process is facilitated by the presence of enzymes, including acid phosphatases (AP). This enzyme catalyzes the cleavage of phosphate bonds, releasing the phosphate through hydrolysis.
