Abstract

The method for qualitative and quantitative detecting of the extend of use and the correct process flow of the mammalian aerobic glucose fermentation metabolic pathway (mam-aGF) in a mammalian individual is characterized in that the enzyme TKTL1 is used as indicator and target molecule and that the structural and/or functional parameter of said TKTL1 in a biological sample of said individual (patient) are taken as indication for the qualitative and quantitative run of the mam-aGF in the cells and/or tissue of said individual (patient). In combination with the use of inhibitors and activators of that mam-aGF the method is further suitable for checking and controlling the mam-aGF in an individual (patient).
