The occurrence of clinical and biochemical side effects of bezafibrate (400 mg daily) or simvastatin (20 mg daily) alone or combined was appraised in 13 healthy male normolipidemic subjects according to a single blind design. Each period of 2 weeks of treatment with bezafibrate or simvastatin or bezafibrate plus simvastatin was followed by a period of placebo (1 week). No subjects experienced myalgia or muscle weakness. Plasma creatine kinase (CK) elevations, particularly skeletal muscle CK (CK-MM), were observed in 6 subjects: 11 times during different placebo periods, 5 times on bezafibrate, 4 times on simvastatin, and 4 times on combined bezafibrate-simvastatin, but never reached 1,600 IU/L. Only a trend to an increase of CK mean values on combined bezafibrate-simvastatin was shown. The hepatic transaminase and gamma-glutamyltransferase activities remained unmodified throughout the trial, unlike alkaline phosphatase activity, which fell on bezafibrate and on bezafibrate plus simvastatin. The low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level was more reduced with simvastatin than with bezafibrate. The addition of bezafibrate to simvastatin did not decrease it further. Lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase activity expressed as fractional esterification rate was enhanced only on simvastatin and bezafibrate-simvastatin.

Seventy-four patients' sera containing macroenzymes or other uncommon enzyme forms were analyzed for total creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase, or amylase activity on an Ektachem 700XR analyzer. The Ektachem test results correlated well with activities obtained by means of liquid reagents on RA-1000. For each enzyme tested, linear-regression analysis yielded data comparable with those for sera containing exclusively the more common isoenzymes. Increased concentrations of intestinal ALP, however, resulted in higher activities of total ALP being reported for the Ektachem.

1. Analysis of biochemical parameters was carried out on material pooled from 10 baboons, adult male and female, of the Papio c. cinocephalus strain. 2. The values determined were for the common metabolites and enzymes utilized for specific studies in general metabolism (urea, glucose, cholesterol, phospholipids, bilirubin, uric acid, creatinine, alkaline phosphatase, glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, glutamic pyruvic transaminase, lactic dehydrogenase, leucine amino peptidase, gamma glutamyl transpeptidase, total creatine kinase and amylase). Total protein and its fractions (ratio albumin/globulin, albumin, alpha 1-globulin and alpha 2-globulin) were also determined. 3. Results of these studies were compared with values for normal human adults. 4. The differences obtained between the respective ranges can be explained by the different physiology of the two species and, possibly, may also be caused by the use of human substrates in the enzyme assays. 5. Through the determination of normal values for the baboon, this study provides values for this species as an experimental animal in biomedical research.

The time course of changes in serum proteins and other blood constituents after eccentric exercise of the forearm flexors by six nonweight-trained female subjects (age, 19.7 +/- 1.9 years) was investigated. Eccentric muscle actions are those in which the muscle lengthens as it exerts force, as when a person lowers a weight. Serum levels of creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, myoglobin, as well as urea nitrogen, uric acid, creatinine, calcium, and phosphorus were examined before and for 6 days after exercise. Creatine kinase increased dramatically (peak value ranged from 6740 to 24,200 U/L) and aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, alanine aminotransferase, and myoglobin followed the same time course as creatine kinase, but their peak values were lower. These proteins did not increase significantly until 48 hours after exercise and reached peak values 3 to 5 days after exercise. Alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, uric acid, urea nitrogen, creatinine, calcium, and phosphorus showed no change. There is either a delay in muscle protein release by damaged muscle fibers, or the proteins are unable to leave the interstitial area for the 24 to 48 hour period after exercise. Because of the long delay, care should be taken when blood protein levels are interpreted in persons who have exercised strenuously (even if only for a short period of intense effort) several days before any diagnostic tests are performed.

To estimate the information content of different methods of diagnosing biliary diseases, 103 children aged 5 to 15 years, including 25 practically healthy children as control, were examined. Abdominal organs, particularly the liver and gallbladder were examined by echography. The duodenal contents was explored by microscopy of the sediment and biochemistry which included analysis in the vesicular and liver portions of the concentrations of phospholipids, activity of phospholipases A and C as well as measurements of creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase, C-reactive protein and of the diphenylamine index. Ultrasonography was found to be highly informative. The characteristic echographic alterations seen in dyskinesia of the biliary tract, dyscholias and chronic cholecystitis were defined. For differential diagnosis of dyscholia and chronic cholecystitis it is necessary to carry out biochemistry of the duodenal contents including measurements of phospholipids, activity of phospholipases A and C, alkaline phosphatase, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, C-reactive protein and the diphenylamine index. Based on the similarity of the alterations seen in children with different cholepathies, a concept is advanced of the mechanisms by which functional and organic diseases of the gallbladder are formed.

Two trials were conducted to determine the effect of monensin in broiler litter on sheep receiving the broiler litter in their diets. Broiler litter from chickens fed monensin as a coccidiostat, and from chickens receiving no coccidiostat, was included at a level of 30% in 2 sheep diets. In a further 2 treatments, monensin (15 mg kg-1) was added to each of the 2 diets to give a 2x2 factorial experimental design. In the first trial, copper (20 mg kg-1 feed) was added to the diets. These lambs were fed individually at a slightly restricted level of intake. No differences between treatments were observed in feed intake, average daily gain or efficiency of feed utilisation or in the concentrations of zinc, iron and manganese in the liver, glutathione peroxidase in erythrocytes and creatine kinase concentrations in the plasma. Hepatic copper content and copper retention in the livers of the sheep receiving the added monensin were significantly higher (P less than 0.05 and less than 0.01 respectively) than in those not receiving added monensin. The aspartate transaminase and alkaline phosphatase concentrations in the plasma of these sheep were also higher (P less than 0.05) than in those not consuming added monensin. In the second trial, the lambs were group-fed according to treatment and received the diets on an ad lib basis. The mean intakes of the groups receiving the diets with the added monensin, were lower than the intakes by the other groups.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Plasma alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, creatine kinase and alkaline phosphatase activities were studied in clinically healthy Danish landrace and dwarf kids in seven herds from birth to 12 months of age. The purpose was to evaluate the influence of age, breed and herd on reference values. The mean enzyme levels +/- standard deviation (s) in neonatal dwarf kids were 0.09 +/- 0.04, 1.23 +/- 0.24, 2.79 +/- 1.50 and 18.3 +/- 11.0 mu kat/l respectively. The respective values in landrace kids were 0.13 +/- 0.06, 1.06 +/- 0.22, 2.44 +/- 1.60 and 37.6 +/- 23.6 mu kat/l. In 8-12 months old dwarf kids they were 0.30 +/- 0.11, 1.49 +/- 0.13, 3.28 +/- 0.44 and 11.1 +/- 2.4 mu kat/l respectively and 0.23 +/- 0.05, 1.12 +/- 0.34, 3.68 +/- 1.63 and 14.1 +/- 8.40 mu kat/l respectively in landrace kids of the same age. The 5th to 95th percentile intervals of the enzyme activities were within mean +/- 2s for most age groups in both breeds except alkaline phosphatase. The means and medians were close to each other for the values of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and creatine kinase but not for alkaline phosphatase. Alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and creatine kinase levels were low at birth and increased with age, whereas for alkaline phosphatase it was vice versa. Significant differences were observed in mean enzyme activities between kids of different ages (within breeds), breeds (in same age kids) and herds (within same breed and age kids). Sex variations (within the breeds) were not observed. It was concluded that plasma enzyme activities are dependent on age, breed and environment.

Several clinical chemical blood variables were compared, in order to evaluate the differences between Na heparinized plasma and serum samples. Samples from 45 healthy horses were used. No differences between the two sample substrates were found for aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase-isoenzymes, creatine kinase, alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin, cholesterol, urea, total protein, alpha-globulin, gamma-globulin, albumin, calcium (Ca), phosphate (P), sodium (Na) and potassium (K). gamma-Glutamyltransferase and beta-globulin were significantly higher in heparinized plasma than in serum (each p less than 0.05) while magnesium (Mg) was lower (p less than 0.05). From the horse group used for the study, thoroughbreds in racing condition had significantly higher aspartate aminotransferase, gamma-glutamyltransferase, alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin, P and Mg as well as lower Ca and K values than riding horses, irrespective of the sample substrate used. It was concluded that expect for gamma-glutamyltransferase, beta-globulin and Mg, there was no significant difference between the clinical chemical variables of Na heparinized plasma and serum samples.

1. Plasma calcium, magnesium, inorganic phosphorus, sodium and potassium concentrations, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and creatine kinase activities were determined in young and adult non-pregnant non-lactating, early and late non-lactating pregnant and early, mid- and late non-pregnant lactating Danish landrace goats in five herds. The purpose was to determine the influence of pregnancy and lactation on the levels of these parameters and the effect of age and parity on the changes. 2. Calcium, phosphorus, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and aspartate aminotransferase decreased in late gestation. Magnesium and creatine kinase decreased in early lactating goats but increased in subsequent lactation periods. Sodium and potassium fluctuated little during pregnancy and lactation. Calcium, magnesium and potassium profiles were inversely, while phosphorus was directly, proportional to parity. 3. There were significant differences in most ions and enzymes between goats of different herds (within the same physiological state). 4. The transferases and creatine kinase were higher in young goats than in old ones, while alkaline phosphatase was unpredictably high or low in individual goats. 5. Alterations in the level of plasma electrolytes and enzyme activities occur due to pregnancy and lactation and the degree depends on age and parity, influenced also by environment.

In order to detect biochemical parameters in the peripheral blood which would serve as an indicator of severity of blast injuries, the enzyme dynamics (creatine kinase, aspartat transaminase, alanin transaminase, lactic dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase, angiotensin convertase) has been followed up in the serum of sheep. The significant increase was found in the values of creatine kinase, aspartat transaminase and alanine transaminase in the serum of the experimental animals an hour after effects of the blast wave. The authors have concluded that changes of the mentioned enzymes can serve as one of signs of damages of the lungs and gastrointestinal tract caused by blast wave in the early posttraumatic period.
