1. The changes with the time of the activities of some energy-supplying enzymes and of the hydrolytic enzyme, acid phosphatase, were studied over 2 weeks of complete ischaemia, produced in the rat soleus muscle by section of the abdominal aorta and terminal devascularization, leaving nerve and tendon intact. 2. Activities of glycolytic enzymes, oxidative enzymes, hexokinase and acid phosphatase are affected in a different manner. Activities of the glycolytic enzymes, lactate dehydrogenase, triosephosphate dehydrogenase and glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase, are lowest on the 1st day and increase thereafter. The first two reach the control values again on the 4th and 14th day, respectively, while glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase reaches about 50% of the control value on the 14th day. The maximum decrease in activity of the oxidative enzymes, citrate synthase, beta-hydroxyacyl-CoA-dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase occurs later (4th day); thereafter their activity returns slowly to control values, but does not reach them even on the 14th day. Hexokinase activity is slightly decreased on the 1st day; then it increased and reached on the 7th day twice the control value. Thus on the 1st day the activity of the enzymes of aerobic metabolism prevail, and on the 4th day those of anaerobic carbohydrate (glucose) metabolism; the recovery of enzyme activity of aerobic oxidation occurs later. 3. Acid phosphatase activity increased from the 2nd day onwards, reaching up to 3 times the control value on the 4th day and still twice that value on the 14th day. This agrees well with the histochemical picture of acid phosphatase. 4. Histochemical changes of alkaline phosphatase activity reveal destruction of capillary endothelial cells during the first few days after operation and their later proliferation from the periphery, correlating with the loss and recovery of oxidative enzyme activity.

The loss of muscle weight in the soleus (SOL) and extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles was compared after denervation and in the course of reflex muscle atrophy induced by unilateral fracture of metatarsal bones of the paw and local injection of 0.02 ml turpentine oil subcutaneously. This so-called reflex atrophy is significantly greater after 3 days than that after denervation. Seven days after the nociceptive stimulus, reflex and denervation atrophy are grossly similar in both muscles. This also applies in case that the nociceptive stimulus had been repeated on the third day. The EDL:SOL enzyme activities of energy supply metabolism reflect the differences between a glycolytic-aerobic (EDL) and predominantly aerobic type (SOL) of muscle. No consistent changes were found in either type of atrophy after 3 days. In 7 days' denervation, the activity of hydroxyacetyl-CoA-dehydrogenase (HOADH) and citrate synthase (CS) was decreased in the SOL, while glycerolphosphate:NAD dehydrogenase (GPDH) was enhanced. In the EDL, the activity of triosephosphate dehydrogenase (TPDH), GPDH, malate dehydrogenase (MDH), CS and HOADH was decreased. Acid phosphatase (AcP) was greatly increased in both muscles. Seven days after application of the nociceptive stimulus, all enzyme activities were altered in a grossly analogous manner as after denervation.
