The distribution of succinic dehydrogenase, HApi-diaphorase, glucose-6-phosphatdehydrogenase, alkaline and acid phosphatases and glucose-6-phosphatase was studied by means of the incubation of whole cestodes. Succinic dehydrogenase, NAD-diaphorase and glucose-6-phosphatdehydrogenase are connected in general with the fixating apparatus of the scolex and genital organs; phosphatases -- with the integument tissues, excretory system and calcareous corpuscles. The results obtained are in complete agreement with the available data on the distribution of the enzymes studied. The incubation method of whole cestodes can be useful for field works.

The usual histologic pattern in acute viral hepatitis (AVH) includes cellular abnormalities predominantly in the perivenular (zone 3) hepatocytes and changes interpreted as representing regenerative activity in the periportal (zone 1) hepatocytes. Enzyme histochemical and ultrastructural studies of livers of 12 patients with AVH were undertaken to see whether these features support the concept of regeneration of hepatocytes in zone 1. The swollen hepatocytes in the perivenular areas were hydropic, with dilated or eccentric rough endoplasmic reticulum and decreased or vesicular smooth endoplasmic reticulum; correspondingly, the glucose-6-phosphatase activity (reflecting, when present, intact and functional endoplasmic reticulum) was markedly decreased. Succinic dehydrogenase and diphosphopyridine nucleotide diaphorase activities, representing mitochondrial enzymes, were limited to the perinuclear or pericanalicular cytoplasm of swollen hepatocytes. gamma-Glutamyl transpeptidase activity was increased. The periportal hydropic hepatocytes were small and arranged in clusters displacing sinusoids. Ultrastructurally, these hepatocytes had nearly normal organelles but scanty smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Activities of the enzymes glucose-6-phosphatase, succinic dehydrogenase, and diphosphopyridine nucleotide diaphorase were weak, although glycogen was abundant. gamma-Glutamyl transpeptidase activity was scanty in these hepatocytes. These findings from enzyme histochemical and electron microscopic studies could be interpreted as evidence of functional deterioration of perivenular swollen hepatocytes and relative functional immaturity of periportal hydropic clustered hepatocytes, suggesting regeneration of zone 1 hepatocytes.
