Neonatal rats were exposed to a high-fat low-carbohydrate diet to determine how substrate availability might affect the metabolic phenotype of muscle. Mixed-fiber homogenates of extensor digitorum longus, soleus, and diaphragm muscles were assayed for beta-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (beta-OAC), succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, phosphofructokinase (PFK), adenylokinase, and creatine kinase. The three muscles showed significant increases in enzyme activity for fatty acid oxidation (beta-OAC) in weaned neonatal rats maintained on the high-fat diet compared with normal weaned controls. This effect persisted for 6 wk of the diet. The other consistent metabolic change was a decrease in PFK. Adult animals subjected to the same diet had similar increases in fatty acid oxidation and a fall in PFK after 1 wk, with most of these changes persisting for the 4 wk of the diet. Examination of individual fibers revealed enzyme changes in fibers of all types, but with the largest effect in type IIb fibers. The data indicate that both adult and neonatal muscles are similarly capable of adjusting their energy metabolism in response to dietary factors.

A correlated morphological and cytochemical approach was employed to study frog hepatocytes in different periods of their annual cycle, including the natural hibernating period. There were considerable changes in the distribution and organization of hepatic glycogen in different phases of the annual cycle, and distribution of organelles as well. The most striking findings were glycogen storage during the prehibernation and hibernation phases, followed by drastic glycogen depletion. Cytochemical staining of a number of enzymes (succinate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, paranitrophenyl phosphatase, acid phosphatase, and glucose-6-phosphatase) involved in a variety of metabolic pathways, showed various cytoplasmic localizations and differences in intensity of the reaction products as a function of seasonality. Morphological and cytochemical data were interpreted as evidencing different functional requirements during seasonal changes in the frog.

In experiments with 112 male Wistar rats it was shown that accelerated electrons (85 Gy) caused a significant increase in activities of succinate dehydrogenase (SDG) by 15.8% and lactate dehydrogenase (LDG) by 17.0%, and a decrease in activities of alkaline phosphatase (AP) and monoamine oxidase (MAO) by 10.6 and 7.8% respectively within the sensorimotor region of the cerebral cortex immediately after irradiation. Activity of SDG and MAO decreased (by 16.4% and 7.8% respectively) in the caudate nucleus over the same period of time. An increase in the accelerated electron dose from 85 to 500 Gy did not change the direction and the rate of the radiation response of the enzymes. Exposure of rats to 60Co gamma quanta (75 Gy) increased SDG and LDG activity (by 21.4 and 17.3% respectively) within the sensorimotor cortex as late as 10 min after irradiation. A repeated significant increase in SDG and LDG activity was observed 2 hr after irradiation.

Molybdenum hydroxylase activity in guinea pig liver has been compared with that of marker enzymes in mitochondria (succinate dehydrogenase), microsomes (glucose-6-phosphatase) and cytosol (lactate dehydrogenase). Aldehyde oxidase activity was highest in the cytosol, with about 10-fold activity of xanthine oxidase. Significant molybdenum hydroxylase activity was found in mitochondria with minimal levels in microsomes. Mitochondrial and cytosolic aldehyde oxidase varied in substrate specificity and electrophoretic mobility with two major bands in each fraction, one of which was common to cytosol and mitochondria.

The program of acquisition of adult metabolic phenotypes was studied in three jaw muscles in order to determine the link between muscle metabolism and functional development. During early postnatal stages, there were similar transitions in the masseter, anterior digastric, and internal pterygoid muscles with respect to fiber growth, fiber type composition, and whole muscle energy metabolism. Oxidative capacity, as judged by the activities of the enzymes succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), and beta-hydroxyacyl CoA dehydrogenase (beta OAC), rose sharply after birth to reach near maximal levels by 3 weeks. The capacities for glycolytic metabolism represented by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and for high-energy phosphate metabolism represented by adenylokinase (AK) and creatine kinase (CK) activities, rose gradually, not reaching peak values until 6 weeks or later. Thus, the maturation of oxidative metabolism preceded that of glycolytic metabolism in the developing jaw muscles. This was documented for individual fibers in the masseter muscle. Differential metabolic maturation among the jaw muscles was evident beyond 3 weeks. All three jaw muscles attained their specific adult fiber-type profile by about 6 weeks. This maturation program differed from that of hindlimb muscles [Nemeth et al., J Neurosci 9:2336-2343, 1989] and diaphragm muscle [Kelly et al., J Neurosci 11:1231-1242, 1991], reflecting their differential energy demands for contractile performance.

The etiology of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is yet unknown; this study aimed at further differentiation of the disease by means of enzyme histochemistry. Endomyocardial biopsies from the left ventricle of 40 DCM patients and 5 control specimens had enzymes examined histochemically and semiquantitatively and analyzed according to staining intensities of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide tetrazolium reductase (NADH-TR), succinate dehydrogenase, cytochrome c oxidase, lactate dehydrogenase and acid phosphatase (aPh). In DCM, the NADH-TR activity was elevated as compared to controls, indicating impaired mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. However, a concrete relation of enzyme histochemical intensity to anamnestic, hemodynamic or histomorphometric data could not be determined, except for the fact that the intensity of the lysosomal enzyme aPh was elevated in DCM patients with a relatively high left ventricular ejection fraction. The results demonstrate an interindependence of structural, hemodynamic and historical parameters as well as enzyme concentrations in DCM. Thus, a pathological change in the enzyme concentrations tested here cannot be responsible for the functional myocardial impairment in DCM.

Treatment of rats with the vitamin B12 analogue hydroxy-cobalamin[c-lactam] (HCCL) impairs methylmalonyl-CoA mutase function and leads to methylmalonic aciduria due to intracellular accumulation of propionyl and methylmalonyl-CoA. Since accumulation of these acyl-CoAs disrupts normal cellular regulation, the present investigation characterized metabolism in hepatocytes and liver mitochondria from rats treated subcutaneously with HCCL or saline (control) by osmotic minipump. Consistent with decreased methylmalonyl-CoA mutase activity, 14CO2 production from 1-14C-propionate (1 mM) was decreased by 76% and 82% after 2-3 wk and 5-6 wk of HCCL treatment, respectively. In contrast, after 5-6 wk of HCCL treatment, 14CO2 production from 1-14C-pyruvate (10 mM) and 1-14C-palmitate (0.8 mM) were increased by 45% and 49%, respectively. In isolated liver mitochondria, state 3 oxidation rates were unchanged or decreased, and activities of the mitochondrial enzymes, citrate synthetase, succinate dehydrogenase, carnitine palmitoyltransferase, and glutamate dehydrogenase (expressed per milligram mitochondrial protein) were unaffected by HCCL treatment. In contrast, activities of the same enzymes were significantly increased in both liver homogenate (expressed per gram liver) and isolated hepatocytes (expressed per 10(6) cells) from HCCL-treated rats. The mitochondrial protein per gram liver, calculated on the basis of the recovery of the mitochondrial enzymes, increased by 39% in 5-6 wk HCCL-treated rats. Activities of lactate dehydrogenase, catalase, cyanide-insensitive palmitoyl-CoA oxidation, and arylsulfatase A in liver were not affected by HCCL treatment. Hepatic levels of mitochondrial mRNAs were elevated up to 10-fold in HCCL-treated animals as assessed by Northern blot analysis. Thus, HCCL treatment is associated with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative capacity and an increased mitochondrial protein content per gram liver. Increased mitochondrial oxidative capacity may be a compensatory mechanism in response to the metabolic insult induced by HCCL administration.

Adult mice, Mus booduga were fed orally with bennzenehexachloride (BHC) at a dose of 50 mg/kg body weight every day for 1, 5 and 15 days. Significant decrease in the pyruvate content was observed at all periods of treatment. In support of this increase in lactate content and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity was noticed in all the three tissues. Enzymes of TCA cycle namely isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICDH), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and malate dehydrogenase (MDH) were inhibited suggesting abnormality in mitochondrial oxidative metabolism as a consequence of BHC toxicity.

An optimal and practical method for high resolution separation and visualization of soluble and membrane-binding isoenzymes is described. By use of this method, non-specific esterase, lactate dehydrogenase and acid phosphatase from different tissues of mice can be separated into more than 50, 30 and 20 components, respectively. Cholinesterase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase, succinate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase and non-specific esterase isolated from the lumbar spinal cord of chick embryos at different ages can be separated into about 15, 12, 9, 6, 14 and 20 components, respectively. In addition, an attempt has been made to evaluate quantitatively by densitometry differences in enzyme activity among different regions of the same tissue (e.g. spinal cord). The findings revealed that there are differences in isoenzyme components between the dorsal and ventral regions of the spinal cord. Collectively, the combination of direct tissue isoelectric focusing and fast enzyme visualization reveals a greater number of isoenzyme components than can be demonstrated by other means. This method is an extremely useful procedure for understanding and analyzing the nature and topographic localization of isoenzyme components.

A study was made of the role of prolactin (PRL) in the regulation of thyroid function in intact animals and in those exposed to stress (swimming was used as physical exercise). A single daily dose of 125 micrograms of PRL per 100 g of body mass was injected subcutaneously in 0.5 ml of saline solution during a week to male rats (control: intact rats; injection of 0.5 ml of saline solution subcutaneously). Redox enzymes; succinate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, NAD.H2 and NADP.H2, ATPase and monoamine oxidase, total protein, RNA and glycogen in glandular cells were investigated histochemically 24 h after the last injection of PRL or saline, 30 min., 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 hours after swimming or right after complete fatigue (in the presence of experimental hyperprolactinemia). A conclusion has been made that one of the most important mechanisms of the adaptive effect of PRL is its ability to suppress thyroid function, thus decreasing the metabolism level, which results in reduction of oxygen consumption and improves body tolerance to stress.
