The authors studied in cryostat sections and in smears from thyroid aspirates the cytoenzymic pattern of the following thyreopathies: euthyroid goitre, GRAVES' disease, hyperthyroidized goitre, HASHIMOTO's thyroiditis and folliculo-papillary carcinoma. A biochemical study was simultaneously performed. According to the investigated thyreopathies the highest enzymic activity was found in the GRAVES' disease especially for peroxidase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase. Lactate dehydrogenase showed a great activity in thyroid cancer. The lowest activity was found in the HASHIMOTO's thyroiditis with strong fibrosclerosis. The same pattern was found in thyroid smears from fine needle aspirates. The biochemical analysi revealed a strong parallelism with cytoenzymic results. The isozymic pattern of lactate dehydrogenase showed no significant differences between the thyreopathies.

Urinary endogenous oxalate was increased by feeding vitamin B6-deficient or control rats with 5.2% hydroxyproline, or 3% glycine plus 5.2% hydroxyproline. The activities of liver lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) , malic enzyme (ME), and ATP citrate lyase were decreased in vitamin B6-DEFICIENT RATS, AND THEIR LIVEr G6PD was further decreased by the addition of glycine and hydroxyproline to their diets. Supplementing control diets with the two amino acids decreased the activities of rat liver LDH, G6PD, and ATP citrate lyase. The effects of glycine and hydroxyproline feeding on the enzymes studied did not appear related to alterations in insulin availability. Since in vitamin B6-deficient rats, there are increases in urinary levels of oxalic and glycolic acids, and glycine, and increases in tissue levels of glyoxylic acid and glycine, the effects of these metabolites on the activities of the above mentioned enzymes were measured. Oxalic acid inhibited the activities of LDH, G6PD, and ME. Glyoxylic acid inhibited LDH and ME, but not G6PD. Glycolic acid inhibited G6PD and ME, but not LDH. ATP citrate lyase was not affected by these substances. Glycine had no effect on the enzymes studied. Diets which increased oxalate excretion generally reduced or did not alter liver and kidney levels of oxalate, glycolate, and glyoxylate. However, the feeding of glycine and hydroxyproline increased kidney oxalate, and liver and kidney glyoxylate in vitamin B6-deficient rats.

Hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT)-deficient mutants of a bovine kidney cell line (MDBK) were selected following mutagenesis with ethylmethane sulfonate or ICR-170G. MDBK mutants were hybridized to thymidine kinase-deficient L cells and selected in HAT medium. Parental and hybrid cells were characterized for isozyme patterns of lactic dehydrogenase malate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and glutamate oxalate transaminase. Chromosomes of MDBK can be distinguished from mouse L cells by configuration and by fluorescent staining with Hoechst 33-258 stain. Hybrid cells contained both MDBK and L-cell chromosomes and had elevated DNA content. MDBK cells are normally restrictive for mengovirus replication. Both permissive and restrictive hybrids were found. Our data indicate that there was preferential loss of MDBK chromosomes in the hybrid cell lines.

Results are presented on 147 individuals from northern Nigeria who were tested for the red cell antigens A, A1, B, H, M, N, S, s, He, P1, C, D, Du, E, c, e, Ce, v, Lua, Jka (some for Jkb), Lua, K, Jsa (some for Jsb), Kpa, Rd, Fya and Fyb, and for variants of the serum proteins haptoglobin and transferrin and of the red cell enzymes acid phosphatase, phosphoglucomutase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, adenylate kinase, adenosine deaminase, phosphohexose isomerase and lactate dehydrogenase. The results found are of interest as they are among the very few published for this area of Nigeria, but they show little that is unexpected for people living in this region.

Mycotoxic porcine nephropathy was induced by p.o. administration of crystalline ochratoxin A for periods of 5 days, 3 months and 2 years. Enzyme activities of the renal tissue were studied histochemically. These were NADH-tetrazolium reductase, NADPH-tetrazolium reductase, lactate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, unspecific acid phosphatase and unspecific alkaline phosphatase. The activity of NADH-tetrazolium reductase and succinate dehydrogenase was reduced in the proximal tubule of all nephrons after 5 days ochratoxin A exposure and remained reduced after 3 months and 2 years exposure. The effect of ochratoxin A on these enzymes would appear to cause the impairment of proximal tubular function and the morphological changes observed in the proximal tubule in ochratoxin A-induced mycotoxic porcine nephropathy. The localization of alterations in enzyme activity corresponds to the localization of ochratoxin A previously demonstrated in the kidney. The activities of NADPH-tetrazolium reductase, lactate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and unspecific alkaline phosphatase were reduced focally corresponding to the areas with focal tubular atrophy and the degree of reduction was roughly parallel to the degree of atrophy.

Filtrability of calf and adult cattle red blood cells was studied to characterize their durability; to compare their metabolism, lactate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and glutamate-oxalacetate transaminase activity and ATP-content were determined. The activity of the enzymes declined gradually with age. The most pronounced decline of activity, particularly in the case of lactate dehydrogenase, was observed 6--8 weeks after birth. ATP content of calf red blood cells was ten times higher than that of the adult cattle, however, it proved to be less stable. Filtrability of fresh calf and adult cattle red blood cells was identical, while following incubation for 15--24 hours the decrease of filtrability was more pronounced in calf red blood cells indicating a lower filtrability and, consequently a shorter expected lifetime.

Activities of lactate dehydrogenase /LDH/, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase /G6PD/, transaminases, alkaline phosphatase as well as content of lactic acid were studied in enterolysed parts of gastric mucose and in normal mucose. The LDH activity and content of lactic acid were decreased in the enterolysed mucose. As compared with normal mucose the activity of G6PD was increased 3-fold, activities of alkaline phosphatase and of glutamine-alanine transaminases were increased 1.5-2-fold in the mucose regions with metaplasia. In vitro glycocholic acid and products of duodenal secretion inhibited distinctly G6PD and LDH within 10 min of incubation; maximal activity of G6PD was observed within 20 min, after addition of cholic acid the enzyme was completely inactivated within 30 min. Under these conditions the activity of alkaline phosphatase was decreased within 10 min and returned up to the initial level within the subsequent periods.

In most of the cases studied, histo- and cytoenzymochemical values of metabolism in cancer of the mammary gland correlate with the histological type, differentiation level and the degree of the tumor malignancy. As the histological degree of malignancy increases and the level of differentiation of the mammary cancer decreases, the activity of glycolysis and pentous shunt enzymes, lactate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, increases and that of the Krebs cycle enzymes, succinate and malate dehydrogenase, as well as the enzyme of glycerophosphate shuttle mechanism and oxidation of glycerol-L-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase decreases simultaneously. These data suggest that histo- and cytochemical methods of the enzyme activity determinations may be used for the specification of the prognosis and choosing of the auxiliary methods for the therapy of the mammary gland cancer based both on morphology and metabolism of the tumour.

To determine whether vitamin E (dl-alpha-tocopherol) supplementation of the diet provides protection from inhaled oxidants such as ozone (O3) in community air pollution, its effects were studied in healthy adult volunteers, Experimental groups received 800 or 1600 IU of vitamin E for 9 wk or more; control groups received placebos. Double-blind conditions were maintained throughout the study. Biochemical parameters studied included red blood cell fragility; hematocrit and hemoglobin values; red cell glutathione concentration; and the enzymes acetylcholinesterase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and lactic acid dehydrogenase. No significant differences between the responses of the supplemented and placebo groups to a controlled O3 exposure (0.5 ppm for 2 h) were found for any of these parameters. The results indicate that vitamin E supplementation in humans, at the levels employed in this experiment, gives no added protection against blood biochemical effects of O3 in intermittently exercising subjects under exposure conditoins simulating summer ambient air pollution episodes.
