The effect of Fusarium sporotrichiella v. sporotrichioides mycotoxin (sporofusarin) on the total and non-sedimentary supernatant activity of 13 marker-enzymes of subcellular particles (2 mitochondrial enzymes-cytochrome oxidase and malate dehydrogenase; 8 lysosomal enzymes -- acid phosphatase, acid RNAase, acid DNAase, arylsulphatases A and B, beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase, beta-glucuronidase, beta-galactosidase and beta-glucosidase; 2 microsomal enzymes -- glucose-6-phosphatase and acetylesterase; plasma membrane enzyme -- alkaline phosphatase) of the rat liver, kidney, spleen and bone-marrow was studied in in vivo experiments. The latter demonstrated that sporofusarin effects were characterized by a significant organ and organella specificity, viz. the toxin caused a sharply increased activity, mainly of lysosomes enzymes and labilization of the lysosomal membranes, primarily in the spleen and the bone-marrow. A conclusion is drawn that the discovered selective destructive action of sporofusarin on the lysosomes may be regarded as a new phenomenon that, possibly is directly related to the characterization of the mechanism responsible for a specific effect produced by sporofusarin.

Twenty four hour urine samples of male control and streptozotocin-diabetic Wistar rats were analysed for a series of commonly known kidney-specific enzymes, for electrolytes, creatinine, glucose, total protein and urine volume. The examination was done during two periods of 5 days between the 25th and 30th and the 32nd and 36th day after streptozotocin application. In the first period the animals had free access to food and water, whereas in the second period on days 32, 34 and 36 food was withdrawn. In the first observation period the diabetic rats showed increased excretion rates of 15 measured urinary parameters, while alanine aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.1.2) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (EC 2.3.2.2) activities were lowered and inorganic phosphate was unchanged. The removal of food resulted in decreased excretion values for alanine aminopeptidase, gamma-glutamyltransferase and total protein as compared with fasted nondiabetic animals. The activities of N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (EC 3.2.1.30), acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2), lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27), pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40), C1-fructose 1.6-diphosphatase (EC 3.1.3.11) and the excretion values for sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride and glucose were higher than in fasted nondiabetic rats. beta-Glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21), potassium, inorganic phosphate, creatinine, and urine volume showed no differences between fasted diabetic and fasted control animals. The enzymes in the renal cortex at the end of the experiment showed only decreased activity of alanine aminopeptidase in diabetic rats. Lactate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, beta-glucosidase, C1-fructose 1.6-diphosphatase and glucose 6-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.9) were increased and gamma-glutamyltransferase, N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase, acid phosphatase and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49) showed no change.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Dynamics of 5 marker enzymes activity from subcellular particles--succinate dehydrogenase, beta-glucosidase, arylsulphatases A and B, acid RNAase and glucose-6-phosphatase--were studied in liver, spleen, thymus and blood serum of rats after single intragastric administration of T-2 toxin at a dose of 3.8 mg/kg (LD50). The acute intoxication was accompanied by an early (within 1-3 hrs) and significant reduction of total proteins in the tissues studied. Distinct tissue- and organelle-tropic effects of T-2 toxin were found: the toxin induced a gradual decrease in activity of the enzymes studied in liver tissue, while selective activation of lysosomal hydrolases was observed in spleen and thymus tissues. The selective effect of T-2 toxin on spleen and thymus lysosomal hydrolases appear to be involved in the mechanism of action of the toxin.

The time-course of the ultrastructural changes and activities of 6 marker enzymes of subcellular particles (succinate dehydrogenase, beta-glucosidase, beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase, acid RNAse, glucose-6-phosphatase and 5'-nucleotidase) has been studied in the liver, spleen and thymus in rats administered T-2 toxin (mycotoxin produced by some Fusarium species). A pronounced difference in the effect of T-2 toxin on the organs has been found. In the liver, the toxin induced a destruction of rough endoplasmic reticulum membranes, reduced ribosome number and progressively decreased activities of most enzymes. In the spleen, early and significant ultrastructural disturbances of all the cell membrane components and simultaneous lysosomal activation were observed. The changes in the thymus were characterized by a fast development of cell hydratation, organelle swelling and necrosis of some thymocytes with parallel increase in repair processes, infiltration by phagocytes and a selective activation of lysosomal hydrolases in the end of experimental time (72 h.). The results obtained emphasize an importance of cellular and subcellular membrane alterations in the mechanism of T-2 toxin action.
