Ectodermal cells of the two- and three-germ layer-thick mouse egg-cylinders are considered to be the progenitors of embryonal carcinoma cells in embryo-derived teratocarcinomas. In an attempt to find differences between the tumor cells and equivalent embryonic cells, we have studied the electron microscopic cytochemical localization of alkaline phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase, and Mg2+-activated adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) in embryo-derived teratocarcinomas and mouse egg-cylinders. Alkaline phosphatase was detected in both embryonic and tumor cells, but its activity appeared much more intense in the tumor cells. No ATPase was demonstrated in embryonic ectodermal cells of 6-day-old embryos and only in occasional cells of 7- and 8-day-old embryos. No 5'-nucleotidase activity could be demonstrated in 6- to 8-day-old cylinders. There was marked ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase activity in the membranes of embryonal carcinoma cells. These data point out some differences on the plasma membrane between the embryonal carcinoma cells and equivalent embryonic cells. The potential significance of these differences is discussed with regards to the transformation of embryonic cells in tumor cells. (Am J Pathol 87:297-310, 1977).

A comparative study of glucose-6-phosphatase, alcaline RNase, ATPase, inosine diphosphatase and 5'-nucleotidase activities in isolated rat liver and hepatoma-27 nuclei and nuclear envelopes was performed. The tumor nuclear membranes were shown to be free from G-6-Pase activity in contrast to the liver nuclear membranes. The nuclear RNase activity was strongly inhibited in the hepatoma and could be unmasked in the presence of 3-10(-4) M pCMB. Hepatoma nuclear and nuclear envelopes ATP-ase activity was found to be moderately decreased as compared to those of the normal tissue. The values of inosine diphosphatase activity in hepatoma were similar to those in liver. The role of the nuclear envelope in nuclear-cytoplasmic interactions as well as nuclear location of G-6-Pase are discussed.

The excretory canals of Ascaridia galli (Nematoda) and the protonephridial ducts of Cotylophoron cotylophorum (Trematoda) and Raillietina cesticillus (Cestoda) have been studied with regard to the histochemical localization of lipids, carbohydrates and hydrolytic enzymes. Distinct excretory organs are absent in the acanthocephalan Centrorhynchus corvi. Triglycerides, phospholipids and lipoproteins are seen in association with the wall of excretory canals of A. galli and R. cesticillus, and phospholipids and lipoproteins at the corresponding site in C. cotylophorum. The physiological significance of lipids in association with excretion of substances has been discussed. Low molecular weight glycogen is present in the lumen of excretory canal of A. galli but not in other worms. The common feature of the excretory canals is the presence of enzyme activities of nonspecific alkaline phosphatase and Mg2+-dependent ATPase. Activity of acid phosphatase is seen only in the excretory canals of A. galli. Glucose-6-phosphatase is present in A. galli and C. cotylophorum and absent in R. cesticillus. Weak reaction of 5'-nucleotidase is present in the excretory canals of helminth species studied here. The role of these enzymes in transportation of substances across the wall of excretory canals and also in ionic regulation has been discussed in detail.

From a homogenate of rabbit colon muscle subcellular fractions were isolated by differential centrifugation. The crude microsomal fraction could be separated into subfractions, a fraction of vesicular microsomes at 35% sucrose, a fraction containing sarcolemma, mitochondrial fragments and microsomal vesicles at 35--45% sucrose and a small protein fraction at 45--55% sucrose. Their biochemical properties and their morphological characterization were investigated. The cholesterol and the phospholipid content was equally distributed between the microsomal fractions 35% and 35--45% while the RNA was localized to the mitochondria and the microsomal fraction 35%. The enzyme cytochrome c oxidase was found to be concentrated in the mitochondria while a high contamination was found in the microsomal fractions 35--45%. The NADH-oxidase activity was highest in the 35% fraction and the 5'-nucleotidase activity in the 40,000 X g supernatant. The microsomal subfractions contained the enzymes ATPase, adenylate cyclase and phosphodiesterase. In the 35% fraction Ca stimulated the hydrolysis of ATP. The binding of [3H]-ouabain and the incorporation of [3H]-leucine was most pronounced in the 35% fraction. In a K+-free Krebs Ringer medium the binding of the glucoside was stimulated in all the fractions. From these results we concluded that the fraction 35% sucrose may be mainly derived from the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane while the 35--45% originates from the plasma membrane, mitochondria and to a lesser extent the endoplasmic reticulum.

Activity of enzymes catalizing bioenergetic processes of substance transport through cell membranes, adenosine triphosphatase and para-nitrophenyl phosphates, activity of certain enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism, lactate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, as well as to 5'-nucleotidase taking part in nucleic metabolism were determined in the pancreas of thyreoidectomized rats. Simultaneously the content of lactic acid, phosphorus, potassium and sodium, which immediately related to activation of the mentioned enzymes, was determined in the pancreas. In thyroidectomized rats the activity of Mg2+, Na+, K+-ATPase, Na+, K+-ATPase and lactate dehydrogenase in the pancreas increases, that of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, para-nitrophenylphosphatase and 5-nucleotidase decreases, the content of lactic acid, potassium, sodium and phosphorus increases.

The recently discovered heat-stable inhibitor protein of the Ca2+-activated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (Sharma, R. K., Wirch, E. & Warg, J. H. (1978) J. Biol. Chem., in press) has been purified 238 214-fold from bovine brain extract using an affinity column of the modulator protein--Sepharose 4B conjugate. The purified sample appears to be homogeneous as judged by sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) gel electrophoresis. The protein band has a mobility corresponding to that of a polypeptide of molecular weight 68 000. Since the heat-stable inhibitor protein has a molecular weight of 70 000 under nondenaturing conditions, it suggests that it is a monomeric protein. The protein has no inhibitory activity toward the cAMP-dependent protein kinase or protein phosphatase. The purified sample has been tested for various enzyme activities which include ATPase, GTPase, cAMP phosphodiesterase, cGMP phosphodiesterase, 5'-nucleotidase, and protein kinase. None of these activities are exhibited by the purified sample.

The effects of LATS and TSH on the cyclic nucleotide content and enzymatic activity in rat thyroid was observed during the continuous administration of LATS or TSH for 6 days. Serum T4 and T3 levels were increased significantly compared with the saline controls. The cyclic nucleotide (cAMP and cGMP) levels and enzyme activities per wet weight of tissue were determined. The thyroid weight in both the LATS and TSH groups increased approximately two-fold, but cAMP and cGMP content per wet weight did not significantly change. Neither cyclic nucleotide showed any significant change in plasma. The cAMP-PDE activity in the thyroid significantly increased in both the LATS and TSH groups, but the cGMP-PDE activity was unchanged. Neither was cyclic nucleotide-PDE activity changed in the plasma. The ATPase activity in the thyroid increased markedly in both the LATS and TSH groups, while 5'-nucleotidase activity did not change. These data suggest that LATS and TSH appear to have a stimulatory effect on the metabolism of cAMP, but do not affect the metabolism of cGMP.

The intestinal epithelium of Ascardia galli has been studied with various cytological and cytochemical techniques. It consists of large epithelial cells resting on a thick collagenous basal lamina. Their luminal surface is provided with microvilli. The intestinal cells store considerable amounts of glycogen and neutral lipids. Some intracellular granular inclusions, which stain for proteins, phospholipids and lipoproteins, are distributed throughout the cytoplasm. The brush border is composed of microvilli whereas the outer surface coat consists of saliva resistant PAS-positive material. The detailed histochemical analysis of surface material has revealed that it is composed of nonacetylated acid mucopolysaccharides rich in hyaluronic acid with carboxylate polyanions. The brush border shows intense activities of acid phosphatase and glucose-6-phosphatase, moderate of ATPase, and lipase, weak of 5'-nucleotidase. Acid phosphatase-positive intracellular structures are seen in the intestinal epithelium which form distinct aggregations.

To determine the mechanism of the maturation of the brush border membrane in intestinal epithelial cells, purification of the plasma membrane from undifferentiated rat crypt cells and of the basal-lateral membrane from villous cells has been performed. The method is based on density perturbation of the mitochondria to selectively disrupt their association with the membrane. With both cell populations, two membrane subfractions displaying the same respective density on sucrose gradient have been obtained with an overall yield of 15--20% and a 10-fold enrichment of the plasma membrane markers 5'-nucleotidase and (Na+ + K+)-dependent, ouabain-sensitive ATPase chosen to follow their purification. The four fractions were constituted by sheets and apparently closed vesicles of various sizes. Each fraction was characterized by a distinct protein composition and different levels of enzyme activities. The cells, used for the preparation of the membranes, were isolated as a villus to crypt gradient. This separation and that of the membranes, led to the conclusion that the (Na+ + K+)-dependent ATPase is localized principally in the plasma membrane of all cells whatever their state of maturation, while 5'-nucleotidase is predominantly located in the basal-lateral membrane of the villous cells and may serve as a specific marker for the purification of this membrane. Finally it has been shown that aminopeptidase, dissacharidases and alkaline phosphatase do not appear simultaneously in the maturation process of the cells, alkaline phosphatase being absent from the crypt cells and aminopeptidase being the first to be synthesized. This enzyme seems to appear in the crypt cells membrane before being integrated into the mature brush border membrane.

Changes in the content of cyclic nucleotides (cAMP and cGMP) and related enzyme activities were observed in the rat thyroid, pituitary and plasma during the prolonged increase of endogenous TSH produced by treatment with methylthiouracil (MTU). Experiments were performed after 4 weeks treatment with MTU. The wet weight and cAMP content per wet weight of the thyroid increased 3 and 1.4 times respectively, but cGMP showed a slight decrease. Pituitary weight increased 1.3 times, but cAMP and cGMP content did not change. The cAMP level in plasma also increased about 1.3 times, but cGMP did not increase. The cAMP-phosphodiesterase activity in the thyroid, pituitary and plasma was increased 1.9, 1.4 and 1.3 times respectively after MTU treatment, while cGMP-phosphodiesterase showed no significant change. ATPase activity in the thyroid and pituitary was also increased more than 1.5 times after MTU treatment, while 5'-nucleotidase activitity decreased remarkably. These data indicate that the metabolism of the cyclic nucleotide system in the thyroid is stimulated by TSH.
