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.

Oxidative enzymes in the rat testes have been studied after gamma irradiation. The role of these enzymes in relation to spermatogenesis and steroidogenesis after radiation injury to testis has been discussed. Loss of succinic dehydrogenase and sorbitol dehydrogenase reflects the losts of germ cell population. Malic enzyme and malic dehydrogenase seem to the related to the deficiency of steroid hormones, whereas increase in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and NADP isocitric dehydrogenase is due to secondary stimulation of pituitary.

Use of the gel film technique in microphotometric determinations of enzyme activity is described. The microscope photometer is computer-controlled. It is programmed to deal with repetitive measurements at up to 12 selected positions within a tissue section and to evaluate recorded reaction rates statistically. Films of polyacrylamide gel with entrapped glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase are used as a model to demonstrate the correlation between local enzyme activity and the microphotometrically determined reaction rate. Enzyme activities at different positions in the same tissue section are determined and compared. Activity profiles of five enzymes (glutamate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, NAD-dependent tetrazolium reductase) in the liver are presented and show non-uniform intra-acinar distribution patterns. These results are interpreted in the light of the metabolic zonation of the hepatic acinus. Further applications of the method are discussed.

The activities of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, delta 5-3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and succinic dehydrogenase have been studied histochemically in the ovary of normal and malonate treated hens. Following malonate treatment, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and delta 5-3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase showed increased activities while succinic dehydrogenase activity was diminished significantly. The significance of the above changes has been discussed. The ascorbic acid and cholesterol contents of the ovary were determined to get additional information about steroidogenesis in the gland under such treatment.

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.

Dehydrogenase activity of the tissue form cells of C. albicans during the infection process in albino mice with and without amphotericin B treatment was studied. The strength of the metabolic reactions resulting in accumulation of ATP was evident from the activity of 4 main enzymes, i.e. succinate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. The enzymatic activity was determined by the tetrasol method based on formation of diphormazan. Investigation of the fungal cells 10 minutes after the infection showed that preliminary intravenous or intraperitoneal administration of amphotericin B did not change the activity of the tissue forms. The cytochemical characteristics of the fungal cells remained the same as that in the untreated animals. Six hours after infection of the animals treated with amphotericin B administered intravenously the fungus vegetation decreased from 52 to 38 per cent, while in the animals treated with amphotericin B administered intraperitoneally it was suppressed completely. Simultaneously the energy metabolism was also suppressed, the activity of alcohol dehydrogenase being suppressed most significantly. The activity of this enzyme in the cells of C. albicans isolated from the animals treated with the antibiotic administered intraperitoneally was 14 times lower than that in the cells of the culture isolated from the control animals.

Mercury-induced renal tubular lesions in the rat present histochemically with a decrease of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD), and unspecific esterase (UE), but with an increase of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), indicating a drop of energy supply as well as a switch from oxidative to glycolytic energy production. L-thyroxine has the same effect on SDH, G-6-PD, and LDH, but an inverse effect on MDH and UE, pointing to stimulation of gluconeogenesis. However, administration of L-thyroxine to animals which have been submitted to sublimate intoxication even further decreases the MDH and UE activity while raising or partly restoring the activity of LDH, SDH, and G-6-PD. This observation is interpreted as an attempt of the damaged epithelial cell, as the gluconeogenesis ceases, to gain relatively more energy supply for the benefit of the vitally indispensable tubular Na+ reabsorption.

Detailed histochemical studies have been conducted on the distribution of various enzymes, including thiamine pyrophosphatase, alpha-glucan phosphorylase, hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, aldolase, glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; menadion oxidoreductase, lactate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase in various components of the cerebellum of healthy adult male rats of the Wistar strain. The thiamine pyrophosphatase reaction showed the morphological patterns of the GOLGI apparatus characteristic for each kind of cells. The GOLGI apparatus is a simple network in stellate cells, but it can be classified into the same 5 categories in basket cells and GOLGI type II cells. The GOLGI apparatus in the latter 2 cell types appears to undergo cyclic changes. A few GOLGI type II cells have a supranuclear form (Type II) and some cells show disintegration and "budding-off" of the GOLGI apparatus. The GOLGI apparatus in PURKINJE cells can be classified into 4 categories including a perinuclear strand form (Type III), but most of them show randomly distributed granules and vesicles. Lightly stained networks are observable in astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. They do not show polarity in astrocytes whereas they have extensions in a few oligodendrocytes. BERGMANN glia may undergo cyclic changes indicating more advance differentiation than astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. Cerebellar glomerula show lightly stained networks with many fine granules. Granule cells, stellate cells, and basket cells are all poorly equipped equally with the EMBDEN-MEYERHOF (EM) pathway and with the hexosemonophosphate (HMP) shunt. GOLGI type II cells are richly equipped almost equally with both the EM pathway and the HMP shunt. All these neurons probably derive energy mainly from glucose in the circulating blood. PURKINJE cells may belong to the category of "usual neurons", because they are moderately equipped both with the EM pathway and the HMP shunt. However, they may derive their energy from the BERGMANN glia which have intense hexokinase activity but weak succinate dehydrogenase activity. The BERGMANN glia are more richly equipped with the HMP shunt than with the EM pathway and are rich in lactate dehydrogenase suggesting an "exceptional metabolic pattern". These glia may have active synthesizing ability. Astrocytes and oligodendrocytes are equipped with all the enzymes tested, and they show a tendency to surround the glomeruli. It is suggested that the glomerula may be surrounded by the glial sheaths with strong hexokinase activity, and that they may contain alpha-glucan phosphorylase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in addition to the succinate dehydrogenase already reported. A few PURKINJE cells showed perinuclear concentrations of the reaction product only of succinate dehydrogenase at the sites of contacts between nucleoli and nuclear membranes. It is suggested that the nucleolus may receive adenosine at the sites of contacts between nucleoli and nuclear membranes...

The authors studied in cryostat sections and in smears from thyroid aspirates the cytoenzymic pattern of the following thyreopathies: euthyroid goitre, GRAVES' disease, hyperthyroidized goitre, HASHIMOTO's thyroiditis and folliculo-papillary carcinoma. A biochemical study was simultaneously performed. According to the investigated thyreopathies the highest enzymic activity was found in the GRAVES' disease especially for peroxidase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase. Lactate dehydrogenase showed a great activity in thyroid cancer. The lowest activity was found in the HASHIMOTO's thyroiditis with strong fibrosclerosis. The same pattern was found in thyroid smears from fine needle aspirates. The biochemical analysi revealed a strong parallelism with cytoenzymic results. The isozymic pattern of lactate dehydrogenase showed no significant differences between the thyreopathies.

Mycotoxic porcine nephropathy was induced by p.o. administration of crystalline ochratoxin A for periods of 5 days, 3 months and 2 years. Enzyme activities of the renal tissue were studied histochemically. These were NADH-tetrazolium reductase, NADPH-tetrazolium reductase, lactate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, unspecific acid phosphatase and unspecific alkaline phosphatase. The activity of NADH-tetrazolium reductase and succinate dehydrogenase was reduced in the proximal tubule of all nephrons after 5 days ochratoxin A exposure and remained reduced after 3 months and 2 years exposure. The effect of ochratoxin A on these enzymes would appear to cause the impairment of proximal tubular function and the morphological changes observed in the proximal tubule in ochratoxin A-induced mycotoxic porcine nephropathy. The localization of alterations in enzyme activity corresponds to the localization of ochratoxin A previously demonstrated in the kidney. The activities of NADPH-tetrazolium reductase, lactate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and unspecific alkaline phosphatase were reduced focally corresponding to the areas with focal tubular atrophy and the degree of reduction was roughly parallel to the degree of atrophy.
