The simple mathematical model based on the stoichiometric structure of carbohydrate metabolism and the only allosteric regulation presented, i. e. activation of phosphofructokinase by AMP, was used to study the mechanism of the Pasteur effect, e. g. interrelationship of glycolysis, the Krebs cycle and H-transporting shuttles at varying rates of oxidative phosphorylation and ATPase load. It was shown that the mechanism of the Pasteur effect is based on the presence of two negative feed-back mechanisms in carbohydrate metabolism, namely by the level of ATP in glycolysis and by the level of mitochondrial NADH in the Krebs cycle and H-transporting shuttles. It was also shown that the value and sign of the Pasteur effect depend on the level of ATPase load. The role of this phenomenon in stabilization of ATP in the cell is discussed. The effects of changes in the allosteric properties of phosphofructokinase and low activity of H-transporting shuttles on the Pasteur effect was studied. It was shown that the low values of the pasteur effect in tumour tissues are mainly determined by an insufficient activity of oxidative phosphorylation.

Lymph-node cells of (AKR X C3H) F1 leukaemic mice showed a considerable increase of glycolytic activity and O2 consumption. The glycolytic enzymes phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase, aldolase and lactic acid dehydrogenase showed increased activities in leukaemic conditions. Studies on permeabilized leukaemic and normal lymph-node cells, and assays on partially purified phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase enzymes, revealed that the enhanced glycolysis of the tumour cells was due to the predominance of glycolytic isoenzymes relatively insensitive to the natural metabolic inhibitors. The glycolytic enzyme hexokinase showed decreased activity in leukaemic conditions, owing to a subcellular translocation of its bulk from the cytosol to the mitochondrial fraction. Association of hexokinase with the mitochondria accounted for an ATPase-like stimulatory action on cell respiration which can explain the increased O2 uptake of leukaemic cells.

The metabolic characteristics of 12 skeletal muscles of the sheep were studied. Glycolytic activities (hexokinase, glycogen synthetase I and D, phosphorylase a and b, phosphofructokinase) were measured. Myofibrillar ATPase activity was evaluated. Oxygen consumption, respiratory control and carnitine palmityl transferase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase activities were measured in isolated mitochondria. Three metabolic types could be distinguished; (1) essentially oxidative slow twitch muscles, typified by the supraspinatus and infraspinatus, having low ATPase activity, (2) fast twitch red muscles, typified by the longissimus dorsi and the semimembranosus, having a higher ATPase activity and both high oxidative and high glycolytic activity, and (3) essentially glycolytic fast twitch muscles, typified by the tensor fascia lata and the semitendinosus, having the highest ATPase activity.

A mathematical model is proposed to describe the interaction between glycolysis, the Krebs cycle and 3-oxidation (beta OX). The model incorporates the activations of phosphofructokinase by AMP and of isocitrate dehydrogenase by ADP as well as the inhibitions of citrate synthase by citrate, of acyl CoA synthase by excess CoAsAcyl, of pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) and the beta OX helix by the products CoAsAc and NADH. These regulations have been shown to provide consecutive triggering of the fatty acid and glucose oxidation systems with an increase in the ATPase load, the beta OX of fatty acids being a major source of energy at small loads. The steady state rates of glycolysis and PDH-reaction begin to increase at larger loads when the rate of beta OX is close to its maximum value. At maximum ATPase loads, the glucose oxidation accounts for more than 80% of the total energy production. Under limited fatty acid supply, the transfer to glucose oxidation gives rise to a region of the ATPase loads, where in the steady state levels of NADH and CoAsAc increase with load.

Normal ankle flexion and extension was inhibited in neonatal rats by applying an adhesive cast on the day of birth such that the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle of one hindlimb was immobilized in a shortened position. Casts were changed daily for 3 weeks, at which time animals were sacrificed. Immobilized TA muscles were significantly lighter in weight, and whole muscle and teased fiber fascicular lengths were significantly shorter. No effects were seen on fiber diameter profiles, total muscle fiber number or muscle cross-sectional area. Immobilized TA muscles had significantly lower phosphofructokinase activities, and lower slow-twitch fibers than contralateral muscles. The mitochondrial enzyme succinic dehydrogenase was unaffected by the reduced activity. It is apparent that, in a developing fast-twitch muscle such as the TA, myofibrillar ATPase histochemical patterns and glycolytic enzyme activity (phosphofructokinase) may be regulated by factors dependent upon neuromuscular activity. Mitochondrial enzymes, such as succinic dehydrogenase, seem to be regulated during development by factors which are not as sensitive to activity.

The mathematical modelling of human erythrocyte energy metabolism has shown that stabilization of ATP concentration can be achieved if the curve representing the relation between glycolysis rate and ATP concentration (glycolysis characteristic) is bell-shaped with steeply descending part at physiologically normal ATP concentration. The glycolysis characteristic of human erythrocytes has been obtained experimentally. In erythrocytes of different donors the glycolysis characteristics are greatly different quantitatively, but have qualitatively similar bel-like shape with steeply descending part at physiologically normal ATP concentration. This characteristics can be made coincident for all donors if they are plotted in relative units taking for 100% the physiologically normal values of glycolysis rate and ATP for every individual donor. The coincidence of the normalized erythrocyte glycolysis characteristics for different donors can be achieved in the mathematical model of erythrocyte energy metabolism under the assumption that the phosphofructokinase rate depends effectively on the relation of ATP to adenylate pool and the total erythrocyte ATPase is strongly inhibited by AMP.

Polypeptide growth factors act in part by inducing the expression of specific proteins that perform functions critical to cell cycle progression. We have used a differential display technique to identify genes that are expressed at higher levels following fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-1 (acidic FGF) stimulation of quiescent murine NIH 3T3 fibroblasts. Three such genes--liver (B-type) phosphofructokinase (PFK), fatty acid synthase (FAS) and sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase type 2 (SERCA2)--are described in this report. The level of FAS and SERCA2 mRNA expression is increased rapidly after FGF-1 addition; in contrast, PFK mRNA is induced with kinetics more typical of delayed-early genes. These results indicate that enhanced expression of the PFK, FAS and SERCA2 proteins may be important for FGF-1-stimulated cell proliferation.

The purpose of the study was to detect the specific nature of the action of various training regimens on glycogen, activities of phosphofructokinase (PFK) and myofibrillar Ca(2+)-ATPase, and Ca2+ accumulation by the sarcoplasmic reticulum in muscle fibers of various types. Models of sprint, interval or aerobic continuous running training for 10 weeks, as well as a model of fast strength training (repeated fast clambering up a slope of 80 degrees) and swimming training for 6 weeks were applied in Wistar rats. Most of the training regimes used caused increases in glycogen content both in the soleus muscle (SO) by 29 ... 199% and in the white part of the quadriceps muscle (FG) by 37 ... 65%. Only sprint training was ineffective in both muscles and aerobic running in FG fibers. All training regimes, including sprint training, increased the glycogen content of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SPR). A significant suppression of PFK activity was found 48 hours after interval or aerobic running in both muscles and after sprint running in the soleus (by 26 ... 62%). However, 4-min highly intensive test running (60 m.s-1) resulted in 2-3 fold increases in PFK activity of both muscles in rats trained by interval or continuous running but not in sprint trained and sedentary animals. It was suggested that training in intensive interval running or aerobic running enhances the sensitivity of PFK both to inhibitory and activating influences. The activity of Ca(2+)-ATPase increased as a result of sprint, interval, continuous running and strength training and decreased in result of continuous swimming. The rate of Ca2+ accumulation by SPR increased with sprint, interval, aerobic running and fast strength training in SO and with fast strength training in FG fibers.

The maximal rates (Vmax) of some enzyme activities related to synaptosomal energy metabolism were studied in different types of synaptosomes from cerebellar cortex of Macaca Fascicularis (Cynomolgus monkey). Different synaptosomal populations, namely "large" and "small" synaptosomes, were isolated from the anterior lobule of the cerebellar cortex of monkeys treated p.o. with dihydroergocriptine at the dose of 12 mg/kg/day before and during the induction of a Parkinson's-like syndrome by MPTP administration (i.v., 0.3 mg/kg/day for 5 days). The enzymes were chosen according to their regulatory role and as markers of the following metabolic pathways: (a) glycolysis ((hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, lactate dehydrogenase), (b) Krebs' (TCA) cycle (citrate synthase, malate dehydrogenase), (c) amino acid, glutamate metabolism (glutamate dehydrogenase, glutamate-pyruvate- and glutamate-oxaloacetate-transaminases), (d) acetylcholine catabolism (acetylcholinesterase) and (e) ATPases, i.e. Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, Mg(2+)-ATP synthetase, Mg(2+)-ATPase, Ca(2+)-Mg(2+)-ATPase and Ca(2+)-ATPase Low and High affinity for Ca2+. The MPTP administration modified the activities of citrate synthase, malate dehydrogenase, Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, acetylcholinesterase and glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase only on selected types of synaptosomes. Pharmacological treatment by dihydroergocriptine was able to recovery at the steady-state levels the activities of these enzymes, thus demonstrating a partial protective effect on these biochemical parameters.

A regulatory role of endogenously synthesized eicosanoids on the absorption, transmural transport and metabolism of glucose in perfused, isolated loops of jejunum in vitro was investigated using the lipoxygenase/cyclooxygenase inhibitor, nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA). NDGA diminished glucose absorption over the range 100-500 microM: maximal inhibition at 500 microM NDGA was 52 +/- 9 and 64 +/- 9% (mean +/- SE, P < 0.001) for jejuna from fed rats and rats maintained on glucose water for 48 hr, respectively. In each instance, transmural transport was effectively abolished. The vectorial disposition of lactate release was also changed such that the ratio of luminal to serosal production was increased from 0.19 +/- 0.02 to 1.72 +/- 0.12 (P < 0.001) in fed rats, indicating inhibition of the Na+ pump. NDGA inhibited (Na(+)+K+)-ATPase activity in whole mucosal homogenates with a concentration dependence similar to that observed for glucose absorption. However, NDGA also inhibited Mg(2+)-ATPase activity in whole homogenates and purified rabbit skeletal muscle phosphofructokinase under the same conditions. The results are discussed in terms of the dissipation of the transmembrane Na+ gradient via direct inhibition of the (Na(+)+K+)-ATPase by NDGA. Inhibition of the ATPase precludes the use of NDGA as a suitable drug with which to investigate the role of endogenously synthesized eicosanoids in the regulation of intestinal function.
