Five-year multidisciplinary study of longevity in the Georgian SSR made it possible to select two populations (Abkhazian and Imeretian), in which indices of longevity were much higher, than the average level for the rural population of the whole region. The distribution of polymorphic systems of red cell enzymes (adenilate kinase, esterase D, phosphoglucomutase I, acid phosphatase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, glyoxalase I, lactate dehydrogenase, adenosine deaminase, glutamate pyruvate transaminase, phosphoglycolate phosphatase, phosphohexose isomerase) and serum proteins (haptoglobin, Gc-component and transferrin) was studied for genetic analysis of these populations. The results indicate that for all the studied loci the observed genotypic frequencies in both populations are distributed according to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The genetic comparison of the studied populations with some other neighbouring populations did not reveal any genetic peculiarities and the both populations concord with the scheme of anthropological types of Hither Asia. The study of age-related changes of gene frequencies and heterozygosity showed some age-related fluctuations of genetic indices in all age groups, but the heterogeneous nature of these deviations indicate that they may be the result of random genetic processes.

The activities of key enzymes of glycolysis and of the glucose shunt as well as the capacity of lactic acid formation were determined in the high-speed tissue supernatant of the transplantable Albert hepatoma of mouse [originally produced by oral application of chrysoidin (2,4-diaminoazobenzene) on C57 Black mice]. Furthermore, the particle-bound hexokinase activity was determined. The following results were obtained: In the hepatoma the activities of aldolase, pyruvate kinase and lactic dehydrogenase are hardly altered compared with normal liver. The activities of hexokinase and phosphofructokinase are increased 2,5-fold, those of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase 2-fold. The capacity for lactic acid formation from glucose is 7 times as high in the hepatoma supernatant. Strong differences emerge from the liver-to-hepatoma relationship in terms of intracellular distribution of the hexokinase (total homogenate 1 : 5, supernatant 1 : 2,5 and particle-bound hexokinase activity 1 : 18). A summarizing consideration of all the results obtained so far for the Albert hepatoma shows that this malignoma departss in several biochemical parameters from the "Molecular Correlation Concept" maintained by Weber, providing more evidence for the individuality of tumors.

Aragon et al [4] reported that rat erythrocytes can be cross-linked and permeabilized without significant inactivation or alterations of several enzymes in the glycolytic pathway. If this is the case, in situ kinetic analysis of the red cell enzymes in normal human red cells and abnormal red cells associated with hemolytic problems could be performed. However, we found that the treatment of human red cells with several bifunctional cross-linking reagents under various conditions always caused a certain extent of inactivation and a change in kinetic properties of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, and lactate dehydrogenase. Thus, the cross-linking and permeabilization method, as it stands, is not satisfactory for in situ kinetic analysis of red cell enzymes.

The effect of adrenalectomy on specific activities of testicular hexokinase, 6-phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase and glycogen concentration have been studied. A general increase in specific activities of all enzymes was seen after adrenalectomy in rats of all ages studied. However, lactate dehydrogenase activity and glycogen concentration in pre-pubertal rats alone were depleted with no alteration in pubertal and adult animals. This was accompanied by increased prolactin titres, but gonadotrophins and testosterone were unaltered. Dexamethasone treatment returned all enzyme activities and hormonal profiles to normal.

In porcine interareolar placental epithelia, the following enzymes were demonstrated by histochemical methods after 30, 58, 80, 100, and 110 d of pregnancy, respectively: beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase, beta-galactosidase, beta-glucuronidase, alpha-mannosidase, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, nonspecific esterases, cytochrome oxidase, 5-nucleotidase, leucine aminopeptidase, adenosine triphosphatase, diaphorases (NADH, NADPH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD, NADP), beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, glycero-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, NAD-glycero-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD, NADP), lactate dehydrogenase. The results show that most of the enzyme activities remained almost unchanged during the period of investigation. Only G-6-PDH and 6-PGDH activities increased within the uterine epithelium and nonspecific esterase activity within uterine as well as chorionic epithelia during the 2nd half of pregnancy. Within chorionic and uterine epithelia, hydrolases but not dehydrogenases demonstrated a higher activity at the bases of chorionic villi as compared to the apices and flanks of the latter. The action and influence of the demonstrated enzymes on metabolism, energy transfer, secretory, and resorptive activities of chorionic and uterine epithelia are discussed.

The genetic structure of three Asiatic eskimos subpopulations (402 individuals), five coast chuckchies subpopulations (1793 individuals) and three reindeer chuckchies subpopulations (559 individuals) have been studied for 26 electrophoretic protein systems (33 loci). These are: adenilate-kinase (AK), diaphorase NAD X H (Dia), glyoxalase-1 (GLO-1), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (6GPT), glutamatpyruvate transaminase (GPT), glutamicoxalate transaminase (GOT), carbonic anhydrase-1 (Ca-1), catalase (Ct), acid phosphatase (AcP), lactate dehydrogenase (loci LDH-A and LDH-B), leucine aminopeptidase (Lap), malatedehydrogenase (MDH), purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP), superoxide dismutase (Sod), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (PGD), phosphoglucomutase (loci PGM1 and PGM2), cholinesterase (loci c1--c5), alkaline phosphatase (Pp), esterase D (EsD), red cell esterase (Est) - 4 loci, albumin (Alb), haptoglobin (Hp), hemoglobine (Hb A and B), group-specific component (Gc), transferrin (Tf), ceruloplasmin (Cp). In addition, AB0 and Rh system blood groups and phenyl thiocarbamide taste sensitivity (PTC) have been studied. 12 of 36 loci are polymorphic (33.33%), heterozygosity for all loci in eskimos, coastal and reindeer chuckchies being 0.118 +/- 0.005, 0.130 +/- 0.002 and 0.120 +/- 0.004, respectively. These estimates do not differ essentially from heterozygosity at these loci for mongoloid groups living further south. The test for interpopulation heterogeneity has permitted to estimate contribution of the loci to the differentiation of these populations. The least heterogeneity has been found at loci where gene frequency distribution is the most specific for these ethnic groups.

The effects of administration of testosterone propionate on the activities of seven of the enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism in normal rat mammary glands were investigated and the validity of the results was confirmed by simultaneous injection of the hormone and cyproterone acetate. The administration of the androgen increased the activities of phosphofructokinase (PFK), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGDH) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in glands from both intact and from ovariectomized and adrenalectomized animals. Administration of cyproterone acetate alone resulted in a significant reduction in the activities of PFK and G6PDH and when given together with the androgen it inhibited increases in the activities of PFK, G6PDH, 6PGDH and LDH induced by testosterone. It was concluded that these results did not explain the known inhibitory effects of the androgen on normal mammary gland growth and function.

Intramuscular injections of the title drug in a dose of 5 mg/kg (5% of the LD50) during 10 days produced in the liver and blood serum of white rats a decrease in the activity of glucokinase, succinate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, glutathione reductase, ATPase and ceruloplasmin. The urea content in total phospholipids rose, whereas the content of triglycerides and hexosamine diminished. Ten and 20 days after the drug was discontinued the majority of these characteristics returned to normal. The activity of glucosophosphate isomerase, transketolase, glucose-6-phosphatase, fructose-1,6-diphosphatase and lactate dehydrogenase as well as the content of total cholesterol, free fatty acids, tyrosine, hydroxyproline, total protein, RNA and DNA remained unchanged.

Biopsies from 15 human gliomas, five meningiomas, four Schwannomas, one medulloblastoma, and four normal brain areas were analyzed for 12 enzymes of energy metabolism and 12 related metabolites and cofactors. Samples, 0.01-0.25 microgram dry weight, were dissected from freeze-dried microtome sections to permit all the assays on a given specimen to be made, as far as possible, on nonnecrotic pure tumor tissue from the same region. Great diversity was found with regard to both enzyme activities and metabolite levels among individual tumors, but the following generalities can be made. Activities of hexokinase, phosphorylase, phosphofructokinase, glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, and malate dehydrogenase levels were usually lower than in brain; glycogen synthase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase were usually higher; and the averages for pyruvate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, and beta-hydroxyacyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase were not greatly different from brain. Levels of eight of the 12 enzymes were distinctly lower among the Schwannomas than in the other two groups. Average levels of glucose-6-phosphate, lactate, pyruvate, and uridine diphosphoglucose were more than twice those of brain; 6-phosphogluconate and citrate were about 70% higher than in brain; glucose, glycogen, glycerol-1-phosphate, and malate averages ranged from 104% to 127% of brain; and fructose-1,6-bisphosphate and glucose-1,6-bisphosphate levels were on the average 50% and 70% those of brain, respectively.

A summary of a survey of three genera of mycoplasmatales (Mycoplasma, Acholeplasma, and Ureaplasma) for isozyme expression is presented. Isozyme analysis of mycoplasmas has been employed in at least three distinct areas: (1) as genetic markers for identification, individualization, and taxonomic classification; (2) as markers for cell culture contamination; and (3) as a qualitative measure of the operative metabolic pathways in the diverse species. We have found five ubiquitous enzymes: purine nucleoside phosphorylase, adenylate kinase, inorganic pyrophosphatase, dipeptidase, and esterase. Three enzymes, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, and superoxide dismutase, were restricted to Acholeplasma species and were not detected in Mycoplasma or Ureaplasma. Four glycolytic enzymes, glucose phosphate isomerase, triose phosphate isomerase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and lactate dehydrogenase, were restricted to those species of Mycoplasma and Acholeplasma capable of glucose fermentation. Two of these glycolytic enzymes, glucose phosphate isomerase and lactate dehydrogenase, were detected in serovars I and II of U. urealyticum, which is inconsistent with the non-glycolytic activity in this genus.
