Reaction of ADP with hexamethylene diisocyanate in hexamethylphosphoramide followed by treatment in an acidic medium afforded three new adenine nucleotide analogues, N6-[N-(6-aminohexyl)carbamoyl]-ADP, N6-[N-(6-aminohexyl)carbamoyl]-ATP, and N6-[N-(6-aminohexyl)carbamoyl]-AMP in yields of 13%, 12% and 17%, respectively. The occurrence of the ATP analogue may be interpreted in terms of the equilibrium, 2ADP = ATP + AMP. Coenzymic activities of the ADP analogue against acetate kinase and pyruvate kinase were 82% and 20%, respectively, relative to ADP and those of the ATP analogue against hexokinase and glycerokinase were 63% and 87%, respectively, relative to ATP. These analogues were bound to CNBr-activated soluble dextran through their terminal amino group to give an immobilized ADP and an immobilized ATP, each of which was recycled in a system comprising acetate kinase and hexokinase, and when placed in a membrane reactor together with the enzymes, functioned as an immobilized coenzyme continuously yielding glucose 6-phosphate. A series of chemically defined affinity adsorbents were obtained by coupling these analogues to CNBr-activated Sepharose, and were used to separate the enzymes in a mixture of hexokinase, pyruvate kinase, phosphoglycerate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, and alcohol dehydrogenase.

Starch gel electrophoretic patterns of 26 enzymes (corresponding to 36 gene loci) were examined in hemolysates of erythrocytes from 11 first-trimester and mid-trimester human fetuses (65-138 gestation days). The zymograms of 16 enzymes were identical in fetal and control adult red cells. Six enzymes (enolase, guanylate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, nucleoside phosphorylase, phosphofructokinase, hexokinase) showed differences in the staining intensity of certain isozyme zones as compared with the controls. Also, the fetal red cell zymograms, in contrast to those of adults, contained the mitochondrial forms of isocitric dehydrogenase and glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase as well as more definite zones of phosphoglucomutase-3. Finally, some of the isozymes of uridine diphosphate kinase in the fetal cells had slightly retarded mobility. These observed differences between fetal and adult red cells could reflect the expression of a different program of protein synthesis in red cells of the fetuses or the epigenetic modifications of isozymes in immature red cells.

Various enzyme activities involved in the active transport system, glycolysis, and digestion were assayed in various parts of the gastrointestinal tracts of germfree, conventional, and gnotobiotic rats associated with indigenous bacteria. The activity levels of alkaline phosphatase, glucose 6-phosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase, and disaccharidases in the upper small intestine were highest in all parts of the gastrointestinal tracts of various kinds of gnotobiotic, conventional, and germfree rats. Alkaline phosphatase, glucose 6-phosphatase, and adenosine triphosphatase activities in the upper small intestine of germfree rats were, respectively, 2.3-, 2.9-, and 1.7-fold higher than those in conventional rats. Similar to the results of these enzymes, sucrase, maltase, trehalase, and lactase activities in the upper small intestine of germfree rats were, respectively, 1.6-, 1.5-, 2.3-, and 1.8-fold higher than those in conventional rats. In various gnotobiotic rats, enzyme activity levels were intermediate between those in germfree and conventional rats. These findings suggest that those enzymatic activities are strongly depressed by the association with the indigenous microorganisms in the epithelial mucosa of the upper small intestine of rats. The levels of pyruvate kinase, hexokinase, and lactate dehydrogenase activities were highest, respectively, in the stomach, cecum, and the upper small intestine and cecum in all parts of the gastrointestinal tracts in various kinds of gnotobiotic, conventional, and germfree rats. It was also shown that six kinds of gastrointestinal bacteria, including lactobacilli, significantly depressed the enzyme activity levels to levels between those of the germfree and conventional rats in the upper small intestine of gnotobiotic rats.

An ultramicrochemical technique has been adapted to the evolution of enzyme profiles within individual human mammary tumors. Tandem observation of adjacent stained and lyophilized sections permitted dissection of microgram quantities of freeze-dried material within confirmed regions of malignancy. Enzymes frequently monitored to examine glycolytic, respiratory, and metastatic capacity were microanalyzed successfully: lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), acid phosphatase (AP), aldolase (ALD), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), pyruvate kinase (PK), alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (alpha-GOPDH), hexokinase (HK), and phosphofructokinase (PRK). All enzyme activities were higher in infiltrating ductal carcinomas than in fibroadenomas. Extracts of tumor cells mixed in varying proportions with brain or muscle extracts of rat evidenced no modification of expected activity. The technical adaptation described provided a sensitive methodology to resolve problems of relication, profile analysis, sample quantity, and selectivity within heterogeneous tissues.

Karminomycin effect on the activity of some serum enzymes, such as hexokinase (HK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDG), its isoenzymes and glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-P-ase) was studied. Biochemical assays were applied to 52 patients with neglected malignant tumors. The course dose of the drug was on the average 72mg. The objective antitumor effect was registered in 15 patients. A reliable increase in the values of LDG-5 and G-6-P-ase was observed after the treatment course in the combined group consisting of all the patients subjected to the biochemical assay. Normalization of the serum enzyme spectrum was observed in 15 patients effectively treated with karminomycin: activity of HK and the cathode fractions of LDG decreased. When treatment with karminomycin was ineffective (37 cases), the changes in the enzymatic activity recorded before the treatment further aggraviated. It was found that the level of G-6-P-ase in the patients' treated with karminomycin increased independent of the treatment effect which was probably associated with its toxic effect on the liver. The increase was reversible.

The activity of hexokinase, dehydrogenases of pentose cycle, total lactate dehydrogenase, and cytochrome-C-oxidase level was determined in the aorta of rats with hyperthyroidism caused by the intraperitoneal administration of L-thyroxin. In the administration of hormone doses approaching the physiological ones there was an increase in the activity of cytochrome-C-oxidase and a tendency to the increase of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. Elevation of the activity of all the enzymes under study, excluding lactate dehydrogenase, and in increase of the amount of extractable protein occurred in the administration of moderate thyroxin doses. An increase of hexokinase and particularly of cytochrome-C-oxidase activity was revealed in hyperthyroidism with phenomena of thyrotoxicosis. The activity of the rest of the enzymes approached control. The data obtained are discussed from the point of view of the role played by thyroid hormones in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis.

The 200 Oe magnetic field of power frequency produces an essential effect on metabolism in the tissue of the testicles which are highly sensitive to this factor. A single effect of the field for 24 h results in an increase in the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity. 24-28 h after the cessation of the field action it lowers considerably as well as the cytochrome oxidase and hexokinase activities in mitochondria. The lactate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase activities increased in this case. Restoration of the initial level is marked on the 7th-14th days. Under repeated actions of the stimulation phase the enzymic activities under study (except the lactate dehydrogenase one) are decreased. The mentioned indices restore the initial level on the 14th-28th days. These changes correlates with dynamics of the testosterone level in the testicles and plasm.

This paper starts a series on red blood cell (RBC) metabolism in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). The glycolytic enzyme levels and in vitro half-lives of these patients' RBCs were determined. A number of enzymes (hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, fructose-6-phosphate kinase, aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and lactate dehydrogenase) showed higher activities than in normal control RBCs. Other enzyme activities were normal. These results were discussed and several possible mechanisms considered. We favour the point of view of a shortened life span of the RBCs in CRF, making the most unstable enzymes of the glycolytic sequence appear increase as compared with normal controls.

The activities of the key gluconeogenic, glycolytic, and pentose-shunt enzymes in chicken kidney were determined starting from 8 days before to 58 days after hatching. The activities of pyruvate carboxylase (PC), mitochondrial and cytosolic phosphoenolypruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), fructose-1,6-diphosphatase (FDPase) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) were low in the embryonic tissue but increased towards the time of hatching. After hatching, the activities of PC, mitochondrial PEPCK, and G6Pase continued to increase, but those of FDPase and cytosolic PEPCK decreased. Relatively little change in these activities was observed in chickens over 24 days old. The activities of hexokinase (HK), phosphofructokinase (PFK), pyruvate kinase (PK), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) increased during embryonic growth. After hatching, HK activity continued to increase and then decrease, whereas PFK appeared to decrease and then increase to prehatch levels in 28-day-old birds. LDH activity continued to increase until 8 days after hatching and remained constant thereafter. No definite pattern was discernible in the case of PK. As for the pentose-shunt enzymes, there was no significant change in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity (G6PDH), but the activity of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGDH) increased until the chickens were 14 days old and then remained relatively constant.

Fetal and adult erythrocyte characteristics were studied serially in a 30-mo-old female with juvenile chronic myelocytic leukemia. On presentation the erythrocytes exhibited predominantly fetal characteristics as indicated by 69% hemoglobin F (HbF), 1.1% hemoglobin A2 (HbA2), absent I antigen, and fetal levels of the erythrocyte enzymes, carbonic anhydrase I and II, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, hexokinase, pyruvate kinase, and lactate dehydrogenase; 100% of the erythrocytes present contained HbF. However, Orskov-Jacobs-Stewart hemolysis demonstrated that at least one adult characteristic was present. Seven months later HbF was 17%; I antigen and carbonic anhydrase I had increased to adult levels. The number of cells containing HbF had decreased to 30%. Further studies indicated that at least three new populations of red cells were present after 7 mo which had not previously been detected. Two of these populations exhibited a mixture of both fetal and adult characteristics. Such findings suggested that an ongoing disturbance of regulatory mechanisms was responsible for the variable expression of fetal versus adult erythrocyte characteristics.
