The activities of ATP-consuming and ATP-producing steps of the Embden-Meyerhof pathway, as well as other glycolytic enzymes (phosphoglucomutase and enolase) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase are lower in leucocytes from cord blood than in white cells from adults. These results are related to previous observations (reduced anaerobic glycolysis and nitroblue tetrazolium-test in leucocytes from newborn infants) and discussed in connection with the fact that newborn infants are more susceptible to infections than normal adults.
糖酵解途径中消耗ATP和产生ATP步骤的活性，以及其他糖酵解酶（磷酸葡萄糖变位酶和烯醇化酶）和葡萄糖-6-磷酸脱氢酶，在脐血白细胞中的活性低于成人白细胞。这些结果与先前的观察结果（新生儿白细胞中无氧糖酵解减少和硝基蓝四氮唑试验）相关，并结合新生儿比正常成人更容易感染这一事实进行了讨论。
