Cytochemical techniques associated with transmission electron microscopy were used for the localization in Tritrichomonas foetus of enzymes used as markers of different cell structures. Reaction product indicating the presence of Mg(2+)-adenosine triphosphatase (Mg(2+)-ATPase) and 5'-nucleotidase was observed in the plasma membrane. Glucose-6-phosphatase was seen in association with the endoplasmic reticulum, revealing its organization as parallel cisternae. Thiamino-pyrophosphatase was located in the cis-most region of the Golgi complex. Acid phosphatase was found within lysosomes as well as in several cisternae of the Golgi complex, in contrast to previous observations in mammalian cells. These observations provide support for the use of enzyme markers in future studies on cell fractionation of T. foetus.

The cerium-based method was used to demonstrate cytochemically the ultrastructural localization of alkaline phosphatase (ALPase), 5'-nucleotidase (5'-Nase) and magnesium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Mg-ATPase) on the transitional epithelium of the rat urinary bladder. The reaction product for ALPase was found on the plasma membrane of all epithelial cells, except the luminal surface of superficial cells. The activity of 5'-Nase appeared on the plasma membrane of all bladder transitional epithelial cells, including the free surface of superficial cells. The Mg-ATPase reaction product was seen on the plasma membrane of superficial, intermediate and basal cells, but never on the luminal surface of superficial cells and it was only occasionally seen on the basal surface. The possible functions of these phosphatases have been discussed, and it was emphasized that the 5'-Nase activity present on the luminal surface of superficial cells may play a special role in the membrane movement of these cells in the transitional epithelium.

A procedure for the isolation of primate skeletal microsomal membranes was initiated. Membranes exhibited specific enzymatic markers such as 5'-nucleotidase, Ca++,Mg(++)-adenosine triphosphatase and an ATP-dependent calcium uptake. Baboon skeletal microsomes bound specifically with high-affinity potent Ca++ channel blockers such as dihydropyridine, phenylalkylamine and benzothiazepine derivatives. Scatchard analysis of equilibrium binding assays with [3H](+)-PN 200-110, [3H](-)-desmethoxyverapamil [( 3H](-)-D888) and [3H]-d-cis-dilitiazem were consistent with a single class of binding sites for the three radioligands. The pharmacological profile of SR 33557, an original compound with calcium antagonist properties, was investigated using radioligand binding studies. SR 33557 totally inhibited the specific binding of the three main classes of Ca++ channel effectors and interacted allosterically with them. In addition, SR 33557 bound with high affinity to a homogeneous population of binding sites in baboon skeletal muscle.

The distribution of enzymes and laminin was examined in ileal tissue from pigs suffering from intestinal adenomatosis to reveal the nature of the lesion. A disruption of the normal and specific pattern of distribution was found. Thus, the normal ileal epithelium was characterised by brush border enzymes: alkaline phosphatase, magnesium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Mg-ATPase), fluoride resistant acid phosphatase and 5'-nucleotidase; enzymes of the basolateral border: Mg-ATPase; and cytoplasmic enzymes: beta-glucuronidase, non-specific esterase and acid phosphatase. Subepithelial fibroblasts seemed to be characterised by 5'-nucleotidase. Laminin was present as a continuous band under the surface and crypt epithelium, somewhat thicker in the former. In contrast, the branching proliferating crypts of intestinal adenomatosis largely lacked enzymes characteristic of both villus and crypt cells. Reactions for the subepithelial components, laminin and fibroblasts were also reduced. The deficient differentiation of the epithelial as well as subepithelial components in porcine intestinal adenomatosis distinguish the condition from crypt hyperplasia and indicate an adenoma-like character.

A combined histologic, immunohistologic, enzyme histochemical, and immunologic study has been carried out in a 7-year-old girl with recurring extramediastinal monocentric giant lymph node hyperplasia of hyaline-vascular type. A large panel of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to lymphoid and nonlymphoid cell markers were tested on frozen and paraffin-embedded lymph node tissue as well as on cell suspension and peripheral blood. Tissue enzyme histochemical study, including a conventional hematologic panel, was performed on frozen and plastic-embedded sections. The pattern was dominated by nodular aggregates of round BA-1+ Leu-14+ HLA-DR+ ATPase+ lymphocytes with polyclonal sIgD and sIgM positivity and lacking cIg and BA-2 staining. Leu-1+/Leu-4+, OKT6+, OKT10+, Leu-7+, and CALLA+ cells were few or absent in the nodules, whereas DRC-1+ BA-2+ HLA-DR+ 5'-Nuc+ cells formed a dendritic network in the outer portion of the nodules. No immunoreactivity for lymphoid and nonlymphoid cell markers, including cytokeratin and keratin, was detected in centrinodular histiocytic-like cells. Particularly, the Hassall's-like structures contained a target-like positivity for laminin, and consisted of flattened acid phosphatase (AP), alpha-naphthyl acetate esterase (ANAE), 5'-nucleotidase (5'-Nuc), and adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) positive cells, whose enzyme profile overlapped with that of the histiocytic-like cells. The extranodular areas were mainly composed of Leu-1+/Leu-4+ lymphocytes with Leu-3a+/OKT4+ phenotype and, to a lesser extent, of OKT6+ OKT10+ lymphoid cells and scattered cells with markers of histiocytic lineage. The abundant vascular component was generally identified by laminin positivity and, in smaller proportion, it was positive for Factor VIII-related antigen. Most of the medium-sized vessels with high endothelium had marked AP, ANAE, and ATPase activities. The process observed resulted from vascularized nodular aggregates of nontransformed B-cells with the phenotype of primary follicle lymphocytes, associated to centrinodular histiocytic-like cells with a distinct enzyme profile.

Cytochemical investigations of steroid 3 beta-delta 5-OHD, sudanophilic substances, adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), and adenosine monophosphatase (AMPase) activities in the adrenal of male young rats that had received lead acetate daily at dosages of 1 mg, 2 mg, 4 mg and 6 mg/kg intraperitoneally for 30 days revealed that lead treatment with low dosages (1 mg and 2 mg/kg) accelerated both cortical and medullary functions. Treatment with high dosages (4 mg and 6 mg/kg), however, inhibited the function of adrenals in both regions. Histochemical studies showed that the alteration in enzymatic activities in cortical and medullary regions revealed the possible mechanism of action of lead on the adrenals.

Growth of cells of the potentially zoopathogenic fungus Basidiobolus haptosporus on a nutritionally defined medium with xanthine or urate as the nitrogen source results in greatly increased populations of microbodies. Modified Gomori procedures at the electron microscopic level suggested the single limiting membrane (and in some cases the granular matrix) of immature microbodies to be the exclusive subcellular locale(s) of alkaline phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase and nucleoside diphosphatase activities. When grown in the presence of low inorganic phosphate, additional alkaline phosphatase activity was further identified cytochemically at and along profiles of endoplasmic reticulum and on inclusions previously described as "double-membraned vesicles". Cytochemical localization of acid phosphatase at microbody membranes was minimal if not ambiguous; Mg++-dependent adenosine triphosphatase and glucose-6-phosphatase were not identified at these locales. Quantitative biochemical estimates of alkaline phosphatase activity levels in particulate fractions initially increased with age of cells, perhaps as a function of the cultural induction and marked increase in immature microbody populations. We suggest that this enzyme may participate in some manner with protein translocation mechanisms associated with microbody biogenesis, ontogeny, and/or physiological function.

New light microscopic visualization methods were developed for the histochemical detection of non-specific alkaline and acid phosphatase, Mg-, Ca- and Na, K-dependent adenosine triphosphatase, myosin adenosine triphosphatase, glucose-6-phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase and thiamine pyrophosphatase with cerium ions as trapping agents in cryostat and plastic sections. The techniques are based on the conversion of cerium phosphate into cerium perhydroxide by H2O2 which decomposes at 55 degrees-60 degrees C into cerium hydroxide and oxygen radicals. These radicals are able to oxidize diaminobenzidine (DAB) to DAB brown. Addition of nickel ions to the DAB-H2O2 mixture generates bluish-black stained nickel-DAB complexes. Compared with the classical metal precipitation, azo, azoindoxyl and tetrazolium procedures the H2O2-DAB and especially the H2O2-DAB-nickel methods provided identical or superior results in catalytic phosphatase histochemistry and immunohistochemistry when using non-specific alkaline phosphatase as the enzyme label.

Ectoenzyme activities were determined in peripheral blood cells from patients with acute leukemias, from normal controls, and in cells of hematopoietic cell lines. In common acute lymphoblastic leukemia, cell membrane-associated 5'-nucleotidase (5'-N) activity was significantly higher than in acute T and unclassified lymphoblastic leukemias. In acute myeloblastic and myelomonocytic leukemias, cells contained significantly higher gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma-GT) activity than in lymphoblastic leukemias. Normal B lymphocytes differed from T cells and monocytes mainly in their 5'-N activity, whereas in monocytes, gamma-GT activity was more pronounced than in other normal blood cells. Hematopoietic cell lines showed some distinct patterns of ectoenzyme activity. Most B cell lines had high 5'-N and (Na-K-Mg) adenosine triphosphatase activities. In lines of myeloid origin, elevated gamma-GT values were found. In lymphoid stem cells and in T lymphoblast lines, most ectoenzyme activities were lower than in the other cell lines. In some cell lines, characteristic high-activity marker enzymes were detected.

F344 Male rats weighting between 90 and 110 gm were given 90 ppm diethylnitrosamine in their drinking water for 5 weeks. Seven weeks after the administration of carcinogen was completed, the rats were sacrificed and sections of their livers were embedded in methacrylate. Serial sections 2 or 4 micron in thickness demonstrated the presence of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, acid phosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase, aldehyde dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase, alpha-naphthyl butyrate esterase, DT diaphorase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and 5'-nucleotidase activity and glycogen. The use of 4-micron sections of methacrylate-embedded tissue allows the evaluation of many more phenotypic markers in serial sections than is currently possible with frozen sections.
