The activities of L-threonine dehydrogenase (I), 2-amino-3-oxybutyrate:CoA ligase (II), malate synthetase (III), isocitrate lyase (IV), glyoxylate dehydrogenase (V), glycine decarboxylase (VI), L-serine hydroxymethyltransferase (VII), glucan synthetase (VIII), glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (IX) and succinic dehydrogenase (X) were detected in cell-free extracts prepared from the mycelium of the fungus Sclerotium rolfsii type R. Transfer of S. rolfsii to a threonine-containing medium resulted in a significant increase in the intracellular concentrations of L-threonine, glycine, serine and glyoxylate, and a decrease in oxalate. Incubation with 14C-labelled L-threonine resulted in an immediate output of 14CO2, and an accumulation of labelled glycine and serine in the mycelium. L-Threonine (10(-2)M) increased branching, favoured formation of sclerotia, and induced the formation of enzymes I to VIII, but not IX and X. Sodium oxalate (1-5 X 10(-2)M) inhibited branching, sclerotium formation and the activity of enzymes III and IV. Glycine (10(-1) M) inhibited branching, sclerotium formation and activity of I and II. Ammonium chloride (10(-1) to 10(-2) M) inhibited formation of sclerotia, threonine uptake and activity of III. Acetyl-CoA inhibited V and L-cysteine inhibited I as well as sclerotium formation and branching. It is suggested that hyphal morphogenesis and formation of sclerotia in S. rolfsii require an increased supply of carbohydrate intermediates and energy and that these are mainly supplied by the glyoxylate pathway.

Histologic investigations together with histochemical and photometric measurements of enzyme activities were performed in retina of rabbits, whose blood supply had been totally interrupted for 1h. A retinal edema developed affecting the internal layers between the inner limiting membrane and the internal plexiform and ganglion cell layer. Although this edema was quite remarkable at the posterior pole of the eye, it diminished toward the periphery, disappearing near the ora serrata. The activities of the following enzymes were investigated: hexokinase, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, aldolase, glyceraldehydephosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, ATPase, and phosphorylase. The most striking finding was the total disappearance of phosphorylase activity under pressure ischemia. ATPase and aldolase showed a decreased activity in the ischemic retina, and malate dehydrogenase a slightly diminished one. Concerning the other enzymes, no significant differences between normal and ischemic retina were observed.

The histochemical localization of six enzymic activities (acetylcholinesterase, pseudocholinesterase, monoamine oxidase, lactate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) has been studied in the vagal and facial lobes of the goldfish, Carassius auratus. These encephalic centers are hypertrophic in Cyprinidae, corresponding to the dominance of gustatory function. Acetylcholinesterase shows a complex laminar distribution in the vagal lobes and a peculiar cellular localization in vagal motor neurons. Monoamine oxidase activity is mainly evident in fibrous tracts coming to or leaving from the lobes. Among oxidative enzymes examined, lactate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase exhibit distribution patterns respectively similar to those observed for acetylcholinesterase and monoamine oxidase. Some features on enzymes distribution in the gustatory centers of Carassius are in agreement with the enzymatic patterns well known in higher vertebrates.

Polyacrylamide-disc gel electrophoresis and quantitative enzyme assays showed that the pathways of glucose catabolism and secondary metabolism in Penicillium expansum were dependent on the degree of aeration of the cultures. The isoenzyme patterns and specific activities of aldolase and succinate dehydrogenase indicated that glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle operated under conditions of both limited and efficient aeration (i.e. in cultures grown statically or on an orbital shaker). At high levels of aeration the growth rate was faster and synthesis of extracellular pectolytic enzymes was enhanced, whilst the activities of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase showed that the pentose-phosphate shunt was important in glucose catabolism during the trophophase of growth. In contrast, under conditions of low aeration this latter pathway was virtually undetectable, growth was slower, pectolytic enzyme production low and large concentrations of secondary metabolites (6-methylsalicylic acid, patulin and citrinin) accumulated.

Detailed histochemical studies have been conducted on the distribution of various enzymes such as thiamine pyrophosphatase, alpha-glucan phosphorylase, hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, aldolase, lactate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase in various components of the nucleus Edinger-Westphali, nucleus n. oculomotorii, nucleus ruber and nucleus niger of healthy adult male Wistar strain rats. The thiamine pyrophosphatase reaction showed the morphological patterns of the Golgi apparatus characteristic for each nucleus. The Golgi apparatus was well developed in the nucleus Edinger-Westphali, composing a network of highly fenestrated plates in the nucleus n. oculomotorii and nucleus ruber, and a simple network in the nucleus niger. These results indicate that the former three nuclei need a rich energy supply and argue against the possibility that the four nuclei have a secretory role. The neurons of the nucleus Edinger-Westphali may derive their energy mainly from glucose of the circulating blood, but glial cells may serve as energy donators to the neurons in the pars compacta of the nucleus niger, and the neurons of the other nuclei may derive energy from both sources. These conclusions are consistent with the morphological patterns of the Golgi apparatus.

Intravillous, microcrater, and macroscopic invasive lesions induced in the mouse duodenum by N-ethyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine were examined histochemically. The cells of these neoplastic lesions and the proliferative zones of the normal crypts showed similar staining reactions in leucine aminopeptidase, alkaline and acid phosphatases, adenosine 5'-triphosphatase, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. However, a slight decrease in succinic dehydrogenase activity and a slight increase in lactic dehydrogenase activity were observed in the intravillous and microcrater lesions compared to the activity in the proliferative zones of the crypts. The neoplastic cells of these lesions showed no mucus secretion. We discussed the origin of the neoplastic lesions using these and other findings.

In vitro alterations induced by a 10 micrograms/ml and 50 micrograms/ml dose each of thiophenate and fenbendazole on the absorptive surfaces of Haemonchus contortus (Nematoda: Trichostrongylidae) were studied. The most significant changes were induced in the gut epithelium. Alkaline phosphatase and adenosine triphosphatase activities were decreased, succinic dehydrogenase activity was increased, while acid phosphatase and glucose-6-phosphatase were completely lost from the intestinal epithelium after treatment with either of the drugs. A stimulatory effect of these two anthelmintics was observe on lactic dehydrogenase and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide diaphorase distribution. Thiophenate caused an increase in the activities of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) and nonspecific esterases and a decrease in reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate diaphorase (NADPH-D) activity. Fenbendazole treatment led to the inhibition of GDH, while G-6-PD, NADPH-D, cytochrome oxidase, monoamine oxidase and nonspecific esterase activity remained unaltered in the epithelium.

The effects of unilateral nephrectomy (UN) and streptozotocin (STZ) diabetes on the activities of enzymes involved in uridine and cytidine synthesis in early renal growth (3-14 days after stimulus to growth) have been compared. Measurements were also made of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGDH) and of glucose 6-phosphate (G6P), UDP-glucose, and glycogen, in relation to phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate, ribonucleotide, and complex carbohydrate formation. There were striking differences in the activities of CTP synthetase, G6PDH, and 6PGDH in the two conditions, with a three-fold increase in all three enzymes at 3 and 5 days and a two-fold increase above basal values at 14 days of STZ diabetes. The UN group showed no significant change in CTP synthetase at any stage and the activity of G6PDH and 6PGDH only kept pace with renal growth. Changes in routes of uridine synthesis were less marked, with a more rapid rise in carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase (glutamine) and a lesser response of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase in the UN relative to the STZ-diabetic groups. The enzymes of complex II and of uracil phosphoribosyltransferase showed essentially similar patterns during renal hypertrophy in UN and STZ diabetes. The parallel increase in CTP synthetase, G6PDH, and 6PGDH in the kidney in diabetes, also known to increase in growth situations in hepatomas and in renal tumors, is discussed in relation to hormone signals involved in renal growth. The importance of the concentration of CTP, and thus of CTP synthetase, in the CTP-cytidyltransferase reaction, an enzyme with a high Km for CTP, makes the present observation of the striking increase in CTP synthetase in STZ diabetes of particular interest in relation to phosphatidylcholine formation and hormone signal transduction.

Adult male rats were treated intraperitoneally with chloroquine (5 mg/kg/day) for 9 days. A reduction in the fasting plasma glucose level by 17.6% and ascorbic acid by 45% were discernable. The treatment caused significant increase in liver lactate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities and reduced the activity of succinate dehydrogenase enzyme. Chloroquine also caused significant reductions in the contents of reduced glutathione and ascorbic acid in the brain and erythrocytes with a significant increase in lipid peroxidation.

Renal clear cell tubules and clear/acidophilic cell tumors were induced in male Sprague-Dawley rats by 7 weeks oral administration (stop model) of N-nitrosomorpholine (NNM) at a concentration of 12 mg/100 ml in the drinking water. Twelve, 23 and 34 weeks after withdrawal of NNM serial cryostat sections of the kidneys were histochemically analyzed for the following parameters: glucose transporter proteins (GLUT1, GLUT2), glycogen content and the activities of glycogen synthase (SYN), glycogen phosphorylase (PHO), glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), hexokinase (HK), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), pyruvate kinase (PK), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), acid phosphatase (ACP) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT). Clear cell (glycogenotic) tubules first appeared at 23 weeks, and clear/acidophilic cell tumors at 34 weeks after withdrawal of the carcinogen. G6Pase, ALP, GGT and GLUT2 were absent in clear cell tubules, clear/acidophilic cell tubules, and clear/acidophilic cell tumors indicating a sequential origin of all these types of lesions from the collecting duct system, in line with previous morphological findings. In comparison to the collecting duct epithelium, glycogenotic tubules demonstrated an increased activity of PHO and reduced activities of glycolytic and mitochondrial enzymes, which were accompanied by a strongly reduced expression of GLUT1. Moderately increased activities of glycolytic and mitochondrial enzymes were observed in the clear cells of clear/acidophilic cell tubules and tumors compared with those in glycogenotic tubules. They had slightly increased activities of the glycolytic enzymes GAPDH and PK compared with normal collecting duct epithelium, while most of them were nearly lacking in GLUT1. Our findings suggest that glycogen storage is not due to an increased uptake of glucose from the blood, but results from a disturbance in intracellular flux of metabolites. The development of clear cell tubules from the normal collecting duct epithelium is accompanied by a markedly decreased expression of GLUT1 along with a reduction in glycolytic and mitochondrial enzymes. This reduction of enzyme activities is replaced by an increase in enzyme activities in clear/acidophilic cell tumors indicating a fundamental shift in carbohydrate metabolism during progression from preneoplastic to neoplastic lesions.
