In vivo administration of L-thyroxine (L-T4) in Anabas testudineus, while significantly stimulated the activities of cytochrome c oxidase and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (alpha-GPDH), inhibited glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH), cytosolic and mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase (cyt. MDH; mit. MDH), and Mg2+ DNP-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Mg2+ ATPase) activities. The activities of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), and catalase remained unaltered after L-T4 treatment. Administration of protein synthesis inhibitors such as actinomycin D, while significantly inhibited cytochrome oxidase, alpha-GPDH, catalase, SDH, and Mg2+ ATPase activities, did not change LDH, cyt. MDH, and mit. MDH activities. Chloramphenicol injection significantly stimulated cytochrome oxidase, alpha-GPDH, and G-6-PDH activities. Simultaneous injections of actinomycin D or chloramphenicol with 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (L-T3) or L-T4 prevented the effects of thyroid hormones on enzyme activities, when compared to the respective controls.

Hepatocytes were prepared from 15 degrees C acclimated catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) and maintained in primary culture for 20 days on biomatrix at 7, 15, and 25 degrees C without hormones or serum to determine if cells can directly adapt to temperature. Specific activities of cytochrome-c oxidase, NADH-cytochrome c reductase, citrate synthase, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase showed acclimatory rate compensation (7 greater than 15 greater than 25 degrees C cultured); 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase had activity changes of 15 greater than 7 greater than 25 degrees C cultured; activity of lactate dehydrogenase occurred in the series 7 greater than 15 = 25 degrees C. Protein synthesis of freshly isolated hepatocytes from catfish acclimated to the three temperatures exhibited acclimatory rate compensation. In contrast, protein synthesis of cultured hepatocytes occurred in the series 15 greater than 25 greater than 7 degrees C cultured. Protein degradation was highest at 25 degrees C followed by cells at 15 and 7 degrees C. Cultured hepatocytes showed incomplete temperature acclimation in vitro by way of enzyme activity changes and of protein synthesis. This suggests that some factor(s), such as hormones, is probably necessary to mediate the full temperature-acclimation process.

The duration of the presumed metabolic depression of syngeneic vena cava to aorta transplants was determined in rats and the site and type of energy metabolism in the vein grafts assessed. The aerobic metabolic activity was measured from the histochemical reactivity of the enzymes, succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase, and the anaerobic activity by staining with lactate dehydrogenase. The activity of the hexose-monophosphate shunt was assessed by the histochemical demonstration of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. Sixteen hours after grafting a pronounced metabolic depression was noted. Recovery occurred 24 hours after transplantation. The most intense staining was from lactate dehydrogenase in the vein grafts and in the non-transplanted veins. At the end of the observation period of four months the grafts were definitely more strongly stained than the non-transplanted veins, with most of the activity in the thickened intima. This layer had a metabolic profile resembling that of the media of the adjacent aorta.

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.

The goal was to describe the metabolic profile of ganglionic and cortical arteries and arterioles in aging normotensive male rats. Five enzymes indicative of key metabolic pathways in the vessel walls were semiquantitatively evaluated using bright-field histochemical microscopy. Lactate dehydrogenase showed significant reactivity which increased with vessel diameter in cortical and ganglionic vessels in all age groups tested. Succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase showed little reactivity in both cortical and ganglionic vessels, suggesting a reduced role for aerobic metabolic pathways. Myosin ATPase reactivity was high in cortical and ganglionic vessels. Only this enzyme showed an increased reactivity that was correlated with the age and diameter of the vessel. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase reactivity was more pronounced in cortical than ganglionic vessels, suggesting that the hexose-monophosphate-shunt may be more active in the cortical vessels. There were no regional differences in enzyme reactivity throughout the caudatoputamen. In conclusion, both the cortical and ganglionic vessels are metabolically active, with significant anaerobic glycolysis, and reduced, but observable capacity for aerobic metabolism. The decreased myosin ATPase reactivity and the low level of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase reactivity in the ganglionic arterioles of senescent rats may contribute to the susceptibility of these vessels to cerebrovascular accidents.

We studied energy metabolism after experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage in rats. Four different cerebral areas were tested: frontal cortex, occipital cortex, hippocampus, and brainstem. Vmax of the following enzymatic activities was evaluated: in the homogenate: hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, and lactate dehydrogenase for the glycolytic pathway, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase for the hexose monophosphate shunt; in the purified nonsynaptic mitochondria: NAD+-isocitrate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, and succinate dehydrogenase for the Krebs cycle, and cytochrome oxidase for the electron transfer chain. We also evaluated some parameters related to the respiration of nonsynaptic mitochondria (State 3, State 4, uncoupled state, respiratory control ratio, and ADP:O ratio). Subarachnoid hemorrhage did not significantly affect Vmax of the enzymatic activities related to anaerobic and aerobic metabolism; however, mitochondrial respiration was affected, particularly in the presence of NADH-producing substrates (glutamate + malate).

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.

In porcine areolar placental epithelia, 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, 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 the enzyme activities remained almost unchanged during the period of investigation. Of the dehydrogenases, the diaphorases as well as succinate and lactate dehydrogenase demonstrated generally an intensive activity within the epithelia. The activity of the other dehydrogenases was only low. The activity of unspecific esterase was very intensive within the uterine epithelia but remarkably low within chorionic epithelia. Contrarily, the reaction of adenosine triphosphatase was more intensive within chorionic than uterine epithelia. All investigated glucosidases reacted distinctly positive within chorionic epithelia, but only beta-N-acetyl-hexosaminidase and beta-galactosidase in uterine epithelia. The high activity of acid phosphatase, especially within the chorionic epithelium, seems to be connected with uteroferrin, an iron-binding protein. The histochemical results are discussed in context with the function of the areolae in histiotrophic nutrition and iron transport.
