Using histochemical techniques, the reactivities of selected enzymes and other metabolic components were examined in the myocardium, coronary arteries, and coronary arterioles of normal, two-week-sympathectomized, and sham-operated canine hearts. There were no differences in the histochemistry of coronary arteries in any of the hearts, but important differences were noted in the myocardium and especially in the arterioles. The reactivities of the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and the nucleic acids were increased in arterioles of the sympathectomized heart, possibly indicating an increased protein synthesis. The reactivities of succinate dehydrogenase, NAD-isocitrate dehydrogenase, and cytochrome oxidase were reduced in myocardium and arterioles of sympathectomized hearts as well as in arterioles of sham-operated hearts; the changes were greater in the sympathectomized arterioles where there was also observed an increase in reactivity of lactate dehydrogenase. These findings suggest a depression in aerobic metabolic capacity and, in the case of the sympathectomized arteriole, imply a possible shift in adaptation from aerobic to anaerobic metabolism.

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 effect of chronic ethanol intoxication on oxidative phosphorylation in the rat brain mitochondrial fraction was examined. Moreover, electron microscopy was used to verify the quantitative composition of the fraction and for examination of ultrastructural changes in the mitochondria. The experiments were carried out with 60 rats receiving, beside the normal diet, ethyl alcohol according to a modified RATCLIFFE model. In isolated rat brain mitochondria the NAD-dependent oxidation of substrates (glutamate + malate) was decreased. The phosphorylation index ADP/0 and the respiratory control ratio (RCR) in rat brain mitochondria from ethanol-treated rats were unchanged in the presence of both succinate and glutamate + malate. Chronic ethanol feeding did not induce any changes of succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase activities in solubilised mitochondria fractions of rat brain. Electron microscopy studies revealed that mitochondria from control animals retained their outer and inner membranes, whereas those from rats given ethanol were almost always swollen and some were disrupted. In mitochondrial fractions isolated from ethanol-intoxicated rats an increase was observed of contaminating elements i.e. axons and synaptosomes of various sizes. It should be stressed that the mitochondria located inside synaptosomes and axons were unchanged. The composition of the fractions was quantitatively evaluated and confirmed the diminution of "free" mitochondria in the experimental fractions in favour of "bound" mitochondria which mainly occurred in the synaptosomes with preserved metabolic activity. On the basis of electron microscopy studies it could be suggested that ethanol intoxication causes the damage of some mitochondria, which become more sensitive to mechanical destruction during isolation procedure, and they do not sediment together with the fraction of normal ones. The absence of "free" mitochondria in pellets explains the spurious lack of disturbances in the energy metabolism of brain mitochondria after chronic ethanol intoxication.

Ischemic myocardium was produced by occluding the left circumflex coronary artery in anesthetized dogs. Autolyzed myocardium was produced by incubating transmural samples of canine left ventricle at 37 degrees C. Tissue pH was recorded continuously in each model using a microcombination pH electrode impaled into the midmyocardium. The activities of the five mitochondrial inner membrane enzyme complexes of electron transport and coupled oxidative phosphorylation were assayed as a function of time of ischemia or autolysis. While the activities of complex II (succinate-CoQ reductase) and IV (cytochrome c oxidase) were completely stable, that of complex I (NADH-CoQ reductase) decreased markedly, but largely only after 20 min of ischemia or autolysis. At 20 min and beyond, the decrease in the activity of complex I paralleled closely the decrease in whole mitochondrial oxygen uptake with NAD-linked substrates in both models. The activity of complex III (CoQH2-c reductase) decreased at a more gradual rate during ischemia or autolysis, and its rate of decrease paralleled that of succinate-supported oxygen uptake. The activity of complex V (oligomycin-sensitive ATPase) decreased most rapidly (by 40% in only 5 min of autolysis) but nearly leveled off beyond 20 min in the two models. A strikingly similar pattern of differential enzyme lability was observed in isolated control mitochondria incubated at lowered pH values. The results demonstrate 1) differential enzyme lability within the mitochondrial inner membrane, 2) a connection between severity of acidosis and the degree of enzyme activity loss, and 3) the usefulness of simple tissue autolysis as an analogue of in situ myocardial ischemia.

The effects of gossypol, a polyphenolic compound isolated from the cotton plant upon six oxidoreductases from cultured epimastigotes of Typanosoma cruzi were studied. Gossypol was a powerful inhibitor of the alpha-hydroxyacid and malate dehydrogenases, NAD-linked enzymes, and of glutamate dehydrogenase, malic enzyme and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, NADP-dependent enzymes. The drug did not have an effect on succinate dehydrogenase, a flavoprotein. The Ki values with respect to substrate were 0.73, 0.3 and 3.5 microM for alpha-hydroxyacid, malate and glutamate dehydrogenases, respectively, and 1.1, 0.19 and 7.8 microM with respect to the coenzyme. Inhibition was noncompetitive with respect to substrate and uncompetitive in relation to the coenzyme.

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.

NADH:ubiquinone reductase (complex I) of the mitochondrial inner membrane respiratory chain binds a number of mitochondrial matrix NAD-linked dehydrogenases. These include pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex, mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase, and beta-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase. No binding was detected between complex I and cytosolic malate dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase, NAD-isocitrate dehydrogenase, lipoamide dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, or fumarase. The dehydrogenases that bound to complex I did not bind to a preparation of complex II and III, nor did they bind to liposomes. The binding of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex, and mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase to complex I is a saturable process. Based upon the amount of binding observed in these in vitro studies, there is enough inner membrane present in the mitochondria to bind the dehydrogenases in the matrix space. The possible metabolic significance of these interactions is discussed.

Histochemical study of the visceral yolk-sac endoderm of the rat was performed in vitro (whole-embryo culture for 24, 48 and 72 h explanted at 9.5 days of gestation) and in vivo (10.5, 11.5 and 12.5 days of gestation) in order to compare the distribution and activity of various enzymes involved in the digestion and energy metabolism in both systems. It was shown that, both in vitro and in vivo gamma-glytamyltransferase and dipeptidylpeptidase IV are demonstrable in the apical cell membranes (membrane-bound hydrolases), while acid phosphatase, dipeptidylpeptidases I, II and acid beta-galactosidase are concentrated in the supranuclear vacuoles (lysosomal hydrolases), and cytoplasmic lactate dehydrogenase and mitochondrial enzymes (succinate dehydrogenase, NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase, cytochrom oxidase) are localized in the whole cytoplasm and mainly in the apical cytoplasm, respectively, of the visceral yolk-sac epithelium. In vivo, the activity of all enzymes increased until 12.5 days, but in vitro, this activity increased only until 48 h after the start of culture (corresponding to 11.5 days in vivo). Comparison of the yolk sacs at 10.5 and 11.5 days in vivo with those after 24 and 48 h in vitro showed that the activities of all the investigated enzymes were almost identical. Yolk sacs which were cultured for 72 h showed lower activities of lysosomal and mitochondrial enzymes than those at 12.5 days in vivo. It is concluded that the digestive function and energy metabolism of the visceral yolk-sac epithelium are almost identical in vitro and in vivo at 10.5 and 11.5 days.

The rates of the oxidized (Eox) and reduced (Ered) (by NAD . H through the ubiquinone pool) succinate dehydrogenase inhibition by N-ethyl-maleimide are equal and obey pseudo-first order kinetics. The protection of the enzyme against irreversible alkylation was used to quantitate the dissociation constants for Eox and Ered complexes with fumarate, succinate and malonate under conditions when no intramolecular redox reactions might occur. the membrane-bound succinate dehydrogenase catalyzes the succinate : phenazine-methosulphate reductase reaction in the presence of thenoyltrifluoroacetone by a Slater-Bonner mechanism. A comparison of the constants measured by the protection with those derived from the steady-state kinetics shows that succinate affinity for Eox is about 10 times higher than that for Ered; the reverse relations were found for fumarate, whereas the affinity for malonate only slightly depends on the redox state of the enzyme. The data obtained suggest that the dicarboxylate binding at the active site induces changes in the enzyme redox potential. The surface charge does not contribute significantly to the energy of the dicarboxylate binding to the active site of the membrane-bound enzyme.

The activity of oxidative enzymes of the Krebs cycle was examined in white rats during hypokinesia. On hypokinesia day 7 the cytosol activity of NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICDH) increased and that of malic-enzyme decreased. On hypokinesia days 30 and 45 the activity of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (alpha-KGDH) decreased, that of cytoplasmatic malate dehydrogenases (MDH) slightly increased, and that of NADP ICDH declined. On hypokinesia day 60 the total activity of mitochondrial dehydrogenases reduced due to a low protein content of the mitochondrial fraction, whereas the specific activity either remained unchanged (ICDH, NAD MDH, alpha-KGDH) or increased (SDH, NADP MDH). On recovery day 25 only the activity of mitochondrial NAD-dependent malate and isocitrate dehydrogenases returned to normal.
