23-month-old male rats were trained by running for 20 weeks. The oxidation rates of succinate, glutamate+malate, palmitoylcarnitine, and pyruvate and the activities of lactate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase were measured in the subendocardium and subepicardium and in the right ventricle. Regional differences of substrate oxidation rates in the myocardium of old sedentary or trained rats were less than in young rats, suggesting that regional differences in the cardiac work load disappear during ageing. Training did not improve oxidation rates, in contradiction to some previous results.

Forebrain arterioles were analyzed histochemically to determine the effects of an acute administration of ethanol on key enzymes of aerobic and anaerobic metabolism as well as on the hexose monophosphate shunt in rats. The enzymes were glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, cytochrome oxidase, lactate dehydrogenase, beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, and isocitrate dehydrogenase. All enzymes were quantified under two conditions: 1 h and 2 days after ethanol administration. Significant changes were noted in four of the five enzymes measured after 1 h and in all five enzymes when measured 2 days after ethanol administration. Our data suggest that ethanol may cause impaired metabolism in the forebrain microvasculature, which, in turn, may account for some of the characteristic behavioral effects of acute ethanol administration.

Effects of changes in dietary protein have been investigated on three mitochondrial enzymes, succinate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase. Weanling rats (21 days old) were fed for 30 days on (a) a commercially produced diet (CPD) containing 21.0% dietary protein and (b) a low protein-high carbohydrate diet (LPD) containing 3.47% dietary protein. Signs of protein-energy malnutrition developed in the animals having the low protein diet. The mitochondrial enzymes were assayed. Some of the experimental rats were repleted by feeding them on a protein-rich diet for 3 weeks, and the same mitochondrial enzymes were assayed. The activity of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase, which fell to 24% of the control values during the period of deficiency, rose to 91% of the values for control rats during rehabilitation. The activities of succinate dehydrogenase and NAD+-isocitrate dehydrogenase fell to 75 and 73% of the control values, respectively, during depletion and rose to 83 and 88% during repletion in line with the general rate of recovery of the malnourished rats as reflected by the changes in the body weights during repletion. These results show that mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase is very sensitive to changes in dietary protein. Its activity drops sharply with reduction in dietary protein intake and rises rapidly, outstripping the rate of general recovery on reverting to a protein-rich diet.

It has been reported that the mitochondrial cytochromes and citrate cycle enzymes occur in constant proportions to each other and increase or decrease roughly in parallel in response to various stimuli. The purpose of this study was to determine whether this proportionality is an obligatory consequence of the way in which mitochondria are assembled. Severe iron deficiency was used to bring about decreases of the iron-containing constituents of the mitochondrial respiratory chain in skeletal muscle. Cytochrome c concentration and cytochrome oxidase activity were decreased approximately 50%, while succinate dehydrogenase and NADH dehydrogenase activities were decreased by 78% in iron-deficient muscle. On electron microscopic examination, mitochondria in iron-deficient muscles had relatively sparse numbers of cristae. The iron deficiency had little or no effect on the levels of a range of mitochondrial matrix enzymes, including citrate synthase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, fumarase, aspartate aminotransferase, 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase, 3-ketoacid-CoA transferase, and acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase. These results show that the usual constant proportions between the constituents of the mitochondrial respiratory chain and matrix enzymes are not obligatory; they provide evidence that mitochondrial matrix enzymes and respiratory chain constituents can be incorporated into mitochondria independently and that the ratios between them can vary within wide limits.

Clinical and biochemical findings in skeletal muscle in 11 patients with chronic fatigue myalgia syndromes of unknown aetiology are reported. All patients had severe asthenia for from one to 10 years with greatly limited exercise capacity and protracted exhaustion after minor exercise. Diffuse myalgia was prominent and was exacerbated for hours to days after exercise. Assay of skeletal muscle carnitine, phosphorylase, all glycolytic enzymes and the mitochondrial marker enzymes monoamine oxidase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase were normal. These findings lend no support to the presence of a major defect in muscle intermediary energy pathways in this syndrome.

The present study was conducted on bone tissue responses to irradiation towards a treatment model of mandibular irradiation injury by comparing the results of experimental observations of irradiation effects on rabbit hind legs and rat mandibular bones (paper I, II and III) with clinical observations of irradiation effects on the human mandible (paper IV, V and VI). The main results of the study were as follows: Bone marrow haemorrhage, eosinophilia and incipient edema were encountered in the rabbit leg one day after a single irradiation dose. Edema and fibrosis were the salient features after five weeks, while both regenerative and fibrotic changes predominated eleven weeks after irradiation. The changes were the more extensive the greater the irradiation dose was. Empty lacunae as a sign of cell damage in cortical bone already appeared on the first day after irradiation; this effect reached its maximum when the dose was 20 Gy or more. Bone marrow and subcutaneous tissue pO2 and pCO2 were measured by means of implanted Silastic tonometers in irradiated and nonirradiated rabbit hind legs. Single dose irradiation was followed by a rapid, dose dependent decrease of marrow pO2. The corresponding effect on pCO2 was weaker and appeared later. The response to hyperoxia in the bone marrow became weaker when the irradiation dose increased. Less significant was the response of CO2 tension to hyperoxia. O2 and CO2 tensions were recovered after single dose irradiation both in subcutaneous tissue and in bone marrow, but the reduction was less in bone marrow. During the twelve weeks observation period clearly better recovery in tissue gas tensions was observed in subcutaneous tissue than in bone marrow. Nonirradiated periosteal grafts on irradiated bone cavities in the rabbit tibia induced more rapid and intense mature bone formation than irradiated periosteal grafts. The irradiated periosteum, even after a single dose of 20 Gy, had some osteogenetic capacity. The alkaline phosphatase content was lowered eight weeks after surgery in irradiated legs but clearly exceeded control values twelve weeks after surgery indicating new bone formation. Lysosomal enzyme DAP II contents were increased in all irradiated specimens as a sign of disturbed bone formation. The tissue concentrations of acid phosphatase, cytochrome oxidase, lactate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase in the immediate postirradiation period showed a greater increase in activity in the cut lines of the irradiated rat mandibles than in those of the nonirradiated mandibles.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Within the uterine glands, the following enzymes were demonstrated by histochemical methods after 30, 58, 80, 100, and 110 d of pregnancy, respectively: beta-N-acetyl-hexosaminidase, beta-galactosidase, beta-glucuronidase, alpha-mannosidase, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, 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 the activities of G-6-PDH, 6-PGDH, and cytochrome oxidase increase within secreting cells during the 2nd half of pregnancy. The activities of the other enzymes remained almost unchanged during the period of investigation. The description of our results distinguishes between gland neck, middle, and distal part of the secretory unit, respectively. In general, the enzyme activities are similar within the middle and distal gland segments, but lower in the epithelia of the neck region. The activity of dehydrogenases was medium to intensive within the middle and distal gland segments, but only low to medium within the neck portion. Of the hydrolases, the acid phosphatase, ATPase, leucine aminopeptidase, and beta-galactosidase demonstrated an intensive activity within activity secreting cells. The enzyme activities of the gland epithelia are compared with these of the uterine surface epithelia and the histochemical results are discussed in context with their significance in histiotrophic nutrition.

Normal human platelets have been separated according to density on continuous Percoll gradients and the platelet distribution divided into five fractions containing approximately equal numbers of platelets. The mean volumes and protein contents of the platelets in each fraction were found to correlate positively with density while the protein concentration did not differ significantly between the fractions. Four mitochondrial enzymes (monoamine oxidase, glutamate dehydrogenase, cytochrome oxidase and NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase) were assayed and their activities per unit volume were found to increase in a very similar monotonic fashion with platelet density. When MAO and GDH were assayed on the same set of density fractions the correlation between the two activities was very high (r = 0.94-1.00, p less than 0.001) and a similar close correlation was found between MAO and ICDH. The results support the hypothesis that high density platelets either have a higher concentration of mitochondria or have larger mitochondria than low density platelets.

Cerebral forebrain arterioles and neuropil were analyzed histochemically to determine the effects of chloral hydrate anesthesia on key enzymes of aerobic and anaerobic metabolism, as well as the hexose monophosphate shunt in rats. Significant decreases were observed in cytochrome oxidase, and beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase in arterioles, while glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and isocitric dehydrogenase showed a significant increase and lactate dehydrogenase showed no significant change. In the neuropil, cytochrome oxidase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase showed significant increases following chloral hydrate administration, while beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase and lactate dehydrogenase showed no significant changes. These data suggest that surgical anesthetic levels of chloral hydrate can impair forebrain metabolism which may lead to altered electrophysiological responses.

Left ventricular arterioles from Sprague-Dawley rats were analyzed histochemically to determine the effects of halothane administration on key enzymes of aerobic and anaerobic metabolism, as well as on key enzymes of the hexose monophosphate shunt. Significant decreases occurred in cytochrome oxidase (-42%) and beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (-57%). No significant changes were observed in isocitrate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, or lactate dehydrogenase. These data suggest that anesthetic levels of halothane can cause impaired metabolism in the coronary microvasculature.
