Experiments were conducted on rabbits. A study was made of the activity of the redox enzymes--glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), NAD-and NADP-diaphorases, cytochromeoxidase (CCO), alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (alpha-GPDH) in the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus and the posterior lobe of the hypophysis under conditions of stimulation and removal of the superior cervical sympathetic ganglia. There was revealed a correlation between the activity of the tissue respiration enzymes (SDH, MDH, NAD- and NADP-diaphorase, CCO) and the functional condition of the hypothalamo-neurohypophysial neurosecretory system. However, the enzymes of the pentose-phosphate (G-6-PDH) and glycerophosphate shunt (alpha-GPDH) and also of the anaerobic way of oxidation (LDH) reacted nonspecifically on the induced effects.

The authors have studied the enzymhistochemical and ultrastructural pictures of tenocytes of adult human tendons. High succinate dehydrogenase, cytochrome oxidase, TPN-diaphorase, lactate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity were found, as indicated both oxidativ, anaerobic and pentose-phosphate shung activity. Phosphorylase and glutamate dehydrogenase activity was medial, lipase and alcaline phosphatase activity was slight. In tenocytes well developed rough endoplasmic reticulum and GOLGI apparatus, large amount of free ribosomes were found.

The mechanism of amphotericin B action was studied with the aid of cytochemical methods providing determination of the activity of the 4 main enzymes characterizing the cell energetics, i. e. succinate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase inside the cell. With an increase in the concentration of amphotericin B in the medium the activity of all the 4 enzymes decreased, the percentage of the inactive cells being regularly increased. Changes in the fermentative activity of C. albicans as dependent on the incubation time with the antibiotic were studied. Only the respiration activity decreased in 2 hours. As a result of a 4-hour exposure to the polyen in the cells of C. albicans the activity of the lactic acid fermentation, respiration through succinate dehydrogenase and activity of the pentose shunt decreased 1.5--2 times. In 24 hours of incubation the activity of the above decreased 80--90 per cent as compared to the activity of the initial culture.

The authors obtained trophoblast culture from an early chorion of human embryo. Trophoblastic cells of the main 4 types described were: giant cells, with processes, fibro-blast-like, and round. All the cells were rich in RNA, glycoproteins, had a set of enzymes of the Krebs pentose cycle, but low activity of succinic dehydrogenase. A marked cytooxic effect of lymphocytes from healthy pregnant woman on the allogenous cells of the trophoblast culature and the absence of any interaction between the neoatal lymphocytes with the latter was revealed.

Under conditions of experimental myocardium infarction caused in dogs by ligation of the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery, the activity of alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase in mitochondria of the cortex, cerebellum and medulla ablongata lowers most intensively on the first and fifth day after the appearance of acute myocardium infarction. Activation of the most important enzymes of the pentose-phosphate cycle (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and transketolase) which is clearly pronounced on the fifth day is observed in the mentioned sections. In the authors' opinions the above changes in the activity of the enzymes are due to the brain hypoxia which may be the main reason of disturbance in the function of the central nervous system under this disease.

Suppression of delta5-3beta-hydroxy steroid dehydrogenase (delta5-3beta-OHD) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-P-D) activities along with concomitant stimulation of succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) activity were observed in the rat testicular tissues following treatment with oxythiamine HC1, an inhibitor of pentose phosphate pathway. The same treatment also resulted in an accumulation of cholesterol and ascorbic acid in the gland associated with a decrease in the weights of seminal vesicle and prostate. The results suggest a diminution in testicular steroid biogenesis following an alteration of pentose phosphate pathway.

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.

In the subcommissural organ (SCO) of the guinea pig, rat, golden hamster, and mouse the activity and distribution of enzymes related to the energy-supplying metabolism and of some marker enzymes of different cell organelles have been investigated by means of mostly modified histochemical methods. The results were compared with findings in the ciliated ependyma of the ventricular wall and with those in the ependyma of the choroid plexus of the third ventricle. In the ependymal part of the SCO only a moderate activity of hexokinase is observed in its specialized columnar cells whereas a high activity is present both in the ciliated ependyma and the choroid plexus. - The staining pattern of glucose-6-phosphatase is similar to that of hexokinase but this enzyme is found is the SCO only. - Likewise hexokinase, glycogen granules and enzymes related to glycogen metabolism (phosphoglucomutase, uridine-diphosphoglucose pyrophosphorylase, glycogen synthetase and phosphorylase) are regularly found most numerous and active in the nuclear and supra-nuclear area of the ependymal part. These enzymes are less active in both the other ependymal regions. - Uridine-diphosphoglucose dehydrogenase could not be demonstrated in the SCO. The NADP-linked enzymes of the pentose phosphate shunt, glucose-6-phosphate and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, show a moderate activity which decreases also from the nuclear towards the apical area of the ependymal cells of the SCO. Enzymes of the glycolytic pathway, such as glucosephosphate isomerase, fructose-6-phosphate kinase, fructose-I,6-diphosphate aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and lactate dehydrogenase, are highly active in the SCO and are located mainly in the supranuclear area, too. Fructose-1,6-diphosphatase could not be demonstrated thus indicating that in the SCO the pathway is most probably only glycolytic but not gluconeogenetic. Compared to the ependyma of the ventricular wall and of the choroid plexus, in the SCO the M type subunits of lactate dehydrogenase predominate. Glycolytic enzymes are also very active in the choroid plexus but less in the ciliated ependyma. Compared to the ciliated ependyma and especially to the ependyma of the choroid plexus, the activities of enzymes which are only present in mitochondria (NAD-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, NAD-linked malate dehydrogenase after preextraction, cytochrome oxidase, 3-hydroxybutyrate and glycerolphosphate and glutamate dehydrogenase) are relatively low. Mitochondria are accumulated near the superior pole of the nuclei as well as in the most apical part of the ependymal cells. - The staining pattern of NADP-linked isocitrate and malate dehydrogenase as well as of NADH dehydrogenase suggests that these enzymes are localized both in and out of mitochondria. The extramitochondrial activity of the first two enzymes might be localized in the cytosol. The extramitochondrial activity of NADH dehydrogenase might be localized in the endoplasmic reticulum...

Hepatic dysfunction caused by oxidative stress when secondary peroxidation products were administered orally was investigated in rat. In serum at 24 hr after the administration of secondary products, the contents of lipid peroxides reached a maximum, the level of tocopherol reached a minimum, and the transaminase activities were elevated. In the liver, the lipid peroxide contents were kept high between 6 and 24 hr and tocopherol level was kept low between 15 and 48 hr after the does. Therefore, the hepatic oxidative stress was most severe around 15 hr after the dose. Dysfunction in the liver having oxidative stress was then made clear. One was a disturbance in synthetic system of glucose 6-phosphate. The decreases in activities of phosphoglucomutase and glucokinase reduced a level of glucose 6-phosphate, which suppressed the supply of NADPH in pentose cycle, while the NADPH was consuming well for detoxification of endogenous lipid peroxides. Another was specific inactivations of mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase. A third was the depletion of CoASH, which induced the decreases in activities of citrate cycle and lipogenesis. The other was a formation of lipofuscin. Even after the liver was recovering from the oxidative stress, the liver was getting hypertrophy and lipofuscin was accumulating. To make the cause of hepatic dysfunction clear, it was examined whether the incorporated secondary products in the liver could directly attack the enzymes or not. A reasonable amount of secondary products present in the liver was estimated, and then the amount of secondary products was added in hepatic subcellular organelles in vitro. It was found that mitochondrial NAD-dependent aldehyde dehydrogenase, glucokinase, and CoASH were directly attacked and inactivated by the incorporated secondary products in the liver. Thus, a part of dietary secondary products was incorporated into liver, and was not detoxified, but injured the enzymes and CoASH. Then it resulted in lipofuscin formation.

Renal tubular lesions induced in male rats by two different carcinogens, N-nitrosomorpholine (NNM) and N-ethyl-N-hydroxyethylnitrosamine (EHEN), using a limited exposure "stop" protocol were investigated histochemically to demonstrate phenotypic cellular changes. The parameters measured included basophilia, glycogen content and the activity of the enzymes glucose-6-phosphatase (G6PASE), glycogen synthetase (SYN), glycogen phosphorylase (PHO), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), acid phosphatase (ACP) and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma-GT). The lesions observed were predominantly of either basophilic or oncocytic types. In each case, tubular lesions (altered tubules) appeared to give rise to epithelial tumors (epitheliomas) with the same cellular phenotype. Basophilic tubules and epitheliomas proved to be strongly positive for GAPDH and G6PDH while demonstrating a reduction or loss of G6PASE, ALP, ACP, gamma-GT, and SDH compared with controls and the surrounding proximal or distal tubules. In addition, large basophilic epitheliomas demonstrated an increase in both SYN and PHO activities. In contrast, most oncocytic tubules and oncocytomas characterized by abundant densely granular cytoplasm showed a reduction in the activity of G6PDH, but were intensely positive for SDH. However, a few oncocytic lesions demonstrated a decrease in both SDH and G6PDH activity. Rarely, decreased SDH and elevated G6PDH activities were observed in altered tubules resembling oncocytic tubules. It remains to be clarified whether these tubules represent a variation of the oncocytic lesions or, perhaps, another type of tubular lesion. The results indicate that basophilic and oncocytic epithelial tumors differ in their cytochemical pattern and histogenesis. In line with earlier suggestions, the basophilic tumors apparently originate from the proximal renal tubules, while the oncocytomas develop from the distal parts of the nephron. The basophilic tumors are characterized by an increased pentose phosphate pathway and glycolysis, with a corresponding reduction in mitochondrial respiration. However, the majority of the oncocytomas show an increased activity of the mitochondrial enzyme SDH, and a marked decrease in the activity of the key enzyme of the pentose phosphate pathway.
