Effects of glucose concentration and anoxia upon the metabolite concentrations and rates of glycolysis and respiration have been investigated in the perfused liver of the fetal guinea pig. In most cases the metabolite concentrations in the perfused liver were similar to those observed in vivo. Between 50 days and term there was a fall in the respiratory rate and in the concentration of ATP and fructose 1,6-diphosphate and an increase in the concentration of glutamate, glycogen and glucose. Reducing the medium glucose concentration from 10 mM to 1 mM or 0.1 mM depressed lactate production and the concentration of most of the phosphorylated intermediates (except 6-phosphogluconate) in the liver of the 50-day fetus. This indicates a fall in glycolytic rate which is not in accord with the known kinetic properties of hexokinase in the fetal liver. Anoxia increased lactate production by, and the concentrations of, the hexose phosphates ADP and AMP in the 50-day to term fetal liver, while the concentration of ribulose 5-phosphate, ATP and some triose phosphates fell. These results are consistent with an activation of glycolysis, particularly at phosphofructokinase and of a reduction in pentose phosphate pathway activity, particularly at 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. The calculated cytosolic NAD+/NADH ratio for the perfused liver was similar to that measured in vivo and evidence is presented to suggest that the dihydroxyacetone phosphate/glycerol 3-phosphate ratio gives a better indication of cytosolic redox than the lactate/pyruvate ratio. The present observations indicate that phosphofructokinase hexokinase and possibly pyruvate kinase control the glycolytic rate and that glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is at equilibrium in the perfused liver of the fetal guinea pig.

Representative enzyme activities of energy supplying metabolism were measured in muscle specimens of brachial biceps, deltoid or anterior tibial muscle of patients with affections of the peripheral nerves. Simultaneously performed measurements of the same enzyme activities in the contralateral normal muscles served as a control. 5 patients suffered from a lesion of the brachial plexus, 7 patients had a paralysis of the axillary nerve, and 8 patients had a peroneal paralysis. In all denervated muscles no electrophysiological signs of reinnervation were present. The activities of glycogen phosphorylase, triosephosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase were found to be highest in the normal brachial biceps muscle. Lower activities were measured in the normal deltoid and anterior tibial muscle. The oxidative enzymes, 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase and citrate synthase as well as hexokinase, showed no significant difference from the levels of the control. It is suggested that a probable factor determining the differences of the enzyme activities of glycogenolysis, glycolysis and alpha-glycerophosphate oxidation between brachial biceps, deltoid and anterior tibial muscle, might be the pattern of impulse activity in the motor nerves of these muscles. The enzyme activities of glycogen phosphorylase, triosephosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, decreased rapidly during the first 2 months after denervation in the brachial biceps, deltoid and anterior tibial muscle, whereas the decrease was slight during the following months. The activities of the oxidative enzymes (3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase and citrate synthase) showed no significant change after denervation. The metabolic difference of glycogenolysis, glycolysis and alpha-glycerophosphate oxidation between the three muscles was no longer maintained. The possible causes of the deeply decreased enzyme activities of glycogenolysis, glycolysis and alpha-glycerophosphate oxidation, as well as the causes of the unchanged oxidative enzyme activities and of the increased hexokinase activity after denervation in the human brachial biceps, deltoid and anterior tibial muscle, are discussed.

In 28 dogs the distal articular cartilage of the femur was removed and the regenerating articular surface on the 70th postoperative day was studied histochemically for hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphatase, phosphohexose-isomerase, fructose-1, 6-diphosphatase, aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes, phosphoglucomutase, phosphorylase, glycogen synthetase, UDP--glucose dehydrogenase, and UDP-glucuronic acid-4-epimerase. The articular surface consisted of fibrous tissue and of cartilage islets. The latter contained cells differentiating into cartilage and young chondrocytes. The glycolytic enzymes reacted positively in the regenerative articular surface. Enzyme activities were higher in the cells (particularly the chondroblasts and young chondrocytes) of the cartilage islets than in the connective tissue. In the cells differentiations into cartilage, beside the LDH isoenzymes characteristic of glycolysis, a significant LDH1 and LDH2 activity was observed. At the same site the presence of fructose-1, 6-diphosphatase-activity could be assumed, but there was no glucose-6-phosphatase activity. Glycogen synthesis proceeded in the cells of the cartilage islets and UDP-glucuronic acid-4-epimerase activity was observed in the differentiated cells. UDP-glucose dehydrogenase activity was positive in every section of the articular surface.

This paper starts a series on red blood cell (RBC) metabolism in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). The glycolytic enzyme levels and in vitro half-lives of these patients' RBCs were determined. A number of enzymes (hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, fructose-6-phosphate kinase, aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and lactate dehydrogenase) showed higher activities than in normal control RBCs. Other enzyme activities were normal. These results were discussed and several possible mechanisms considered. We favour the point of view of a shortened life span of the RBCs in CRF, making the most unstable enzymes of the glycolytic sequence appear increase as compared with normal controls.

The denaturation of eight purified yeast enzymes, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, 3-phosphoglycerate kinase, alcohol dehydrogenase, beta-fructosidase, hexokinase and glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, promoted under controlled conditions by the free fatty acids myristic and oleic, is selective. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glucose-6-phosphate:NADP+ 1 oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.49) is extremely sensitive to destabilization and was studied in greater detail. Results show that chain length and degree of unsaturation of fatty acids are important to their destabilizing effect, and that ligands of the enzyme can afford protection. The denaturation process results in more than one altered form. These results can be viewed in the perspective of the possibility that amphipathic substances, and in particular free fatty acids, may play a role for enzyme degradation in vivo, by initiating steps of selective denaturation.

1. The changes with the time of the activities of some energy-supplying enzymes and of the hydrolytic enzyme, acid phosphatase, were studied over 2 weeks of complete ischaemia, produced in the rat soleus muscle by section of the abdominal aorta and terminal devascularization, leaving nerve and tendon intact. 2. Activities of glycolytic enzymes, oxidative enzymes, hexokinase and acid phosphatase are affected in a different manner. Activities of the glycolytic enzymes, lactate dehydrogenase, triosephosphate dehydrogenase and glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase, are lowest on the 1st day and increase thereafter. The first two reach the control values again on the 4th and 14th day, respectively, while glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase reaches about 50% of the control value on the 14th day. The maximum decrease in activity of the oxidative enzymes, citrate synthase, beta-hydroxyacyl-CoA-dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase occurs later (4th day); thereafter their activity returns slowly to control values, but does not reach them even on the 14th day. Hexokinase activity is slightly decreased on the 1st day; then it increased and reached on the 7th day twice the control value. Thus on the 1st day the activity of the enzymes of aerobic metabolism prevail, and on the 4th day those of anaerobic carbohydrate (glucose) metabolism; the recovery of enzyme activity of aerobic oxidation occurs later. 3. Acid phosphatase activity increased from the 2nd day onwards, reaching up to 3 times the control value on the 4th day and still twice that value on the 14th day. This agrees well with the histochemical picture of acid phosphatase. 4. Histochemical changes of alkaline phosphatase activity reveal destruction of capillary endothelial cells during the first few days after operation and their later proliferation from the periphery, correlating with the loss and recovery of oxidative enzyme activity.

Haemoglobin fractions and 16 enzymatic activities of red cells of a patient with juvenile chronic myeloid leukaemia are compared to normal, to comparably reticulocyte-rich, non-neonatal and to fetal red cells. The activities of hexokinase, triosephosphate isomerase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, monophosphoglyceromutase, enolase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase are significantly increased in fetal red cells beyond the activities of cell populations with comparable reticulocytosis. The activities of these enzymes are also increased in the patient's erythrocytes. Together with a haemoglobin F concentration of 54% and a concentration of haemoglobin Bart's of 1% these variations reflect the fetal nature of the red cells. Simultaneously, signs of dyserythropoiesis are found in the red cells of the patient: a very high activity of hexokinase and a low pyruvate kinase activity.

In biopsy samples of the lateral part of the quadriceps femoris muscle of 6 obese diabetic male patients and of 11 obese males with a normal glucose tolerance, the activities of 7 enzymes of energy metabolism were estimated: hexokinase, cytoplasmic glycerol-3-phosphate: NAD dehydrogenase, triosephosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, malate dehydrogenase and 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase. The obese diabetic male patients exhibited decreased activities of enzymes of carbohydrate breakdown and cytoplasmic NAD regeneration. Enzymes connected functionally with aerobic metabolism were less affected. The unchanged activity of 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase points to an increased role of fatty acid catabolism in the muscle.

1. The effects of protein concentration and ionic strength on the adsorption of the individual glycolytic enzymes to F-actin and F-actin--trypomyosin--troponin have been studied. 2. Appreciable association was demonstrated under conditions of physiological ionic strength and high protein concentration, and tropomyosin--troponin established as an important and generalized component of these interactions. 3. Phosphofructokinase, aldolase, pyruvate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate isomerase were strongly bound under these conditions, while triosephosphate isomerase, phosphoglycerate kinase, phosphoglycerate mutase, enolase and hexokinase displayed less adsorption to the structural proteins. 4. The influence of a number of parameters on the adsorption phenomena was examined. Ca2+ and fructose 1,6-diphosphate increased the adsorption of aldolase, lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate kinase, while decreasing the adsorption of the enzymes of the constant-proportion group. 5. Of the other major enzymic components of skeletal muscle, creatine kinase, adenylate kinase and malate dehydrogenase showed no adsorption to F-actin--tropomyosin--troponin under the experimental conditions. Some adsorption was evident, however, in the case of aspartate aminotransferase, (NADP) isocitrate dehydrogenase and alpha-glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase. 6. These results have been discussed in relation to their functional significance and the roles of enzyme compartmentation in the cell.

1. The following enzyme activities were estimated in needle-biopsy samples of the lateral part of the human quadriceps femoris muscle: triosephosphate dehydrogenase (TPDH), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), NAD : glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH), hexokinase (HK), NAD: malate dehydrogenase (MDH), citrate synthase (CS) and hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase. 2. Although the enzyme activities in muscles of women were lesser than in those of men, no difference was found in the calculated enzyme activity ratios. There is thus no sex-dependent metabolic type-differentiation in this muscle. 3. The human quadriceps femoris is a low-activity muscle, in comparison with muscles of homoiotherm laboratory animals. The enzyme activity ratio of TPDH to CS, characterizing the glycolytic pyruvate formation to aerobic oxidative capacities, shows this muscle to be of an intermediate type in this respect, similarly as the extensor digitorum longus of the rat. The relatively very high capacity of glucose phosphorylation (HK), the high aerobic regeneration of cytoplasmic dehydrogenated NAD (GPDH) and the very low anaerobic regeneration (LDH), show the unusually high proportion of carbohydrates (glucose) which can be broken down aerobically.
