Molybdenum hydroxylase activity in guinea pig liver has been compared with that of marker enzymes in mitochondria (succinate dehydrogenase), microsomes (glucose-6-phosphatase) and cytosol (lactate dehydrogenase). Aldehyde oxidase activity was highest in the cytosol, with about 10-fold activity of xanthine oxidase. Significant molybdenum hydroxylase activity was found in mitochondria with minimal levels in microsomes. Mitochondrial and cytosolic aldehyde oxidase varied in substrate specificity and electrophoretic mobility with two major bands in each fraction, one of which was common to cytosol and mitochondria.

Enzymological data on alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, glucose-6-phosphatase, cholinesterase and lipase obtained in the kidney of rats, fed on molybdenum (Mo) and copper (Cu), are reported. Antagonistic or synergistic behaviour has been determined by feeding the rats simultaneously on these two metals. Molybdenum inhibited all other enzymes except acid phosphatase and lipase. Complete inhibition of alkaline phosphatase was recorded after copper treatment. The combined treatment with molybdenum and copper exhibited reversible enzyme changes, however, cholinesterase activity remained inhibited.

Chronic oral administration of ammonium molybdate in rats markedly retarded the growth rate of rats and high protein diet could partially reverse this condition. The activities of several enzymes viz. acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, glucose-6-phosphatase, succinic dehydrogenase, glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase, inorganic pyrophosphatase and acetylcholinesterase in different tissues and serum levels of luteinizing hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, prolactin and cortisol are altered due to the toxicity conditions and high protein diet fed group of animals showed almost normal values in respect of a few of these parameters. Normal histological pattern of both liver and kidney tissues were altered under molybdenum toxicity condition. Significant increase of basophilic substances are observed in the cytoplasm of the liver cells of the toxic group of animals which is counteracted by feeding high protein diet.

We evaluated the effect of sodium molybdate on carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes and mitochondrial enzymes in diabetic rats. Diabetic rats showed a significant reduction in the activities of glucose metabolising enzymes like hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glycogen synthase and in the level of glycogen. An elevation in the activities of aldolase, glucose-6-phosphatase, fructose 1,6- bisphosphatase, glycogen phosphorylase and in the level of blood glucose were also observed in diabetic rats when compared to control rats. The activities of mitochondrial enzymes isocitrate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, NADH-dehydrogenase and cytochrome-C-oxidase were also significantly lowered in diabetic rats. Molybdate administration to diabetic rats reversed the above changes in a significant manner. From our observations, we conclude that administration of sodium molybdate regulated the blood sugar levels in alloxan-induced diabetic rats. Sodium molybdate therapy not only maintained the blood glucose homeostasis but also altered the activities of carbohydrate metabolising enzymes. Molybdate therapy also considerably improved the activities of mitochondrial enzymes, thereby suggesting its role in mitochondrial energy production.

A simplified method for inorganic phosphate determination has been developed. The method is sensitive, easy, economic, and applicable for estimation of phosphate released in both enzymatic and nonenzymatic reactions. A mixture of hydrazine sulfate and ascorbic acid was used as the reducing agent and the conditions for the development of the molybdenum blue color were optimized. Thus in the 4.0 ml assay system, 0.4 ml of the reducing agent solution containing 20 mg each of hydrazine sulfate and ascorbic acid per milliliter of 1.0 N H2SO4 gave a rapid optimum color development with absorption maximum at 820 nm. Color development showed a linear relationship up to 10 microg Pi concentration. Thus the method has a 2.5x higher range of Pi estimation than that of the Bartlett method. The molar extinction coefficient at 820 nm was higher than that obtained in the Bartlett procedure. Also the molybdenum blue color formed was stable up to 24 h. Under the standard assay conditions, interference from acid-labile phosphate as in the case of Na+,K+ ATPase was at the minimum. The applicability of the method for assay of microsomal Na+,K+ ATPase and glucose-6-phosphatase was checked in microassays (final volume 0.1 ml) in comparison to the conventional procedures which use 3-4 times higher volumes. Likewise the applicability of the method for phospholipid analysis was compared with that of the conventional Bartlett method. Under both test systems the results obtained by the micromethod were identical to those obtained by the conventional methods. In general the method, which rapidly produces quantitatively molybdenum blue color, not only is rapid economical, and convenient but also has wide applicability.
