The effect of n-hexane, 2-hexanol, 5-hydroxy-2-hexanone, 2,5-hexanediol, methyl n-butyl ketone ( MnBK ) and 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD) has been studied in vitro on crystalline glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), DL-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate: NAD oxidoreductase (phosphorylating) EC. 1.2.1.12 and phosphofructokinase (PFK) ATP: D-fructose-6-phosphate-1-phosphotransferase; EC. 2.7.1.11 and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) L-lactate: NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC. 1.1.1.27. MnBK and 2,5-HD both inhibited GAPDH and PFK activities selectively. n-Hexane and 2-hexanol had no effect on GAPDH and PFK activities; 5-hydroxy-2-hexanone and 2,5-hexanediol exhibited a slight inhibitory effect on these enzymes. Neither metabolites of n-hexane have any effect on LDH activity. 2,5-Hexanedione did not inhibit transketolase (D-sedoheptulose-7-phosphate: D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate glycolaldehyde transferase, EC. 2.2.1.1) and succinate dehydrogenase (succinate: 2,6-dichlorophenol-indophenol oxidoreductase, EC. 1.3.99.1) activities. The levels of ATP were reduced in 2,5-HD-treated cat sciatic nerves and returned to normal levels by exposing the nerve to sodium pyruvate.

The in vitro effects of the neurotoxic compounds, acrylamide and 2,5-hexanedione, on several glycolytic enzymes including enolase, phosphofructokinase (PFK), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) were studied in rat brain. A differential sensitivity of the enzymes to the inhibitory effects of the neurotoxins was observed. The order of increasing sensitivity to 2,5-hexanedione was enolase -- GAPDH -- PFK and to acrylamide the order was PFK -- enolase -- GAPDH. Neither neurotoxin inhibited LDH. The inhibition of enolase by acrylamide exhibited a mixed type pattern in double reciprocal plots. The inhibition could be completely reversed by dialysis indicating that it did not involve covalent bond formation. In the presence of dithiothreitol (DTT) or glutathione the inhibition of enolase by either acrylamide or 2,5-hexanedione was potentiated. Activity of enolase inhibited by both acrylamide and DTT could not be restored to pre-inhibition rates following dialysis indicating that an irreversible interaction between acrylamide and enolase had taken place. The results suggest that neurotoxic compounds which produce distal axonopathies have a common pattern of attack on glycolytic enzymes and that interruption of glycolysis is the underlying biochemical basis for both the physiological and morphological damage caused by these compounds.

The in vitro and in vivo effect of aliphatic diketones has been studied on glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) D,L-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate: NAD oxidoreductase (phosphorylating EC 1.2.1.12 activity). Neurotoxic diketone, 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD), but not 2,4-hexanedione (2,4-HD), a non-neurotoxic diketone, inhibited GAPDH in rat bran homogenate preincubated with 25 mM diketones for 20 min. If the preincubation period was increased to 2 h, approximately 25% and 55% inhibition of GAPDH activity was observed with 1 mM and 5 mM 2,5-HD respectively. The inhibition of GAPDH activity was also seen in sciatic nerves but not in the brain or liver homogenates of rats chronically intoxicated with 2,5-HD for 12 weeks. The inhibition of GAPDH by 2,5-HD appears to be selective, and thus confirms earlier data from this laboratory.

Inhibition of the sulfhydryl enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) by 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD) was found to be irreversible, proceeding via a reversible enzyme-inhibitor intermediate, while acetone was a weak reversible inhibitor. Comparison of 2,5-HD and acetone with p-chloromercuribenzoate (PCMB) and N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) demonstrated that the former are not significant sulfhydryl reagents, since they must be present at more than 10(4) times higher concentrations than PCMB or NEM to effect measurable inhibition of this enzyme. Thus it is unlikely that inhibition of GAPDH by 2,5-HD has any significance in the molecular pathogenesis of hexane neuropathy. The irreversibility of 2,5-HD inhibition, on the othe hand, suggests that 2,5-HD reacts with amino groups rather than sulfhydryl groups on proteins. This reaction is proposed as the molecular lesion in hexane neuropathy.
