When Cladosporium resinae is provided with n-hexadecane and glucose, n-hexadecane is used preferentially. Studies using [14C]glucose indicated that n-hexadecane did not inhibit glucose uptake but did retard oxidation of glucose to CO2 and assimilation of glucose carbon into trichloroacetic acid-insoluble material. Glucose could be recovered quantitatively from hydrocarbon-grown cells that had been transferred to glucose. Four enzymes that may be involved in glucose metabolism, hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glucose-phosphate isomerase, and succinate dehydrogenase, were not detected in cells grown on hexadecane but were present in cells grown on glucose. Addition of hexadecane to extracts of glucose-grown cells resulted in immediate loss of activity for each of the four enzymes, but two other enzymes did not directly involved in glucose metabolism, adenosine triphosphatase and alanine-ketoacid aminotransferase, were not inhibited by hexadecane in vitro. Cells grown on hexadecane and transferred to glucose metabolize intracellular hexadecane; after 1 day, activity of hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glucosephosphate isomerase, and succinate dehydrogenase could be detected and 22% of the intracellular hydrocarbon had been metabolized. Hexadecane-grown cells transferred to glucose plus cycloheximide showed the same level of activity of all the four enzymes as cells transferred to glucose alone. Thus, intracellular n-hexadecane or a metabolite of hexadecane can inthesis of those enzymes is not inhibited.

A procedure was developed for the analytical isolation of brush border and basal lateral plasma membranes of intestinal epithelial cells. Brush border fragments were collected by low speed centrifugation, disrupted in hypertonic sorbitol, and subjected to density gradient centrifugation for separation of plasma membranes from nuclei and core material. Sucrase specific activity in the purified brush border plasma membranes was increased fortyfold with respect to the initial homogenate. Basal lateral membrane were harvested from the low speed supernatant and resolved from other subcellular components by equilibrium density gradient centrifugation. Recovery of Na, K-ATPase activity was 94%, and 61% of the recovered activity was present in a single symmetrical peak. The specific activity of Na, K-ATPase was increased twelvefold, and it was purified with respect to sucrase, succinic dehydrogenase, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, nonspecific esterase, beta-glucuronidase, DNA, and RNA. The observed purification factors are comparable to results reported for other purification procedures, and the yield of Na, K-ATPase is greater by a factor of two than those reported for other procedures which produce no net increase in the Na, K-ATPase activity. Na, K-ATPase rich membranes are shown to originate from the basal lateral plasma membranes by the patterns of labeling that were produced when either isolated cells or everted gut sacs were incubated with the slowly permeating reagent 35S-p-(diazonium)-benzenesulfonic acid. In the former case subsequently purified Na, K-ATPase rich and sucrase rich membranes are labeled to the same extent, while in the latter there is a tenfold excess of label in the sucrase rich membranes. The plasma membrane fractions were in both cases more heavily labeled than intracellular protein. Alkaline phosphatase and calcium-stimulated ATPase were present at comparable levels on the two aspects of the epithelial cell plasma membrane, and 25% of the acid phosphatase activity was present on the basal lateral membrane, while it was absent from the brush border membrane. Less than 6% of the total Na, K-ATPase was present in brush border membranes.

Juvenile rats fed a diet containing 1% lead acetate for 7 weeks, in addition to an impaired growth rate and renal function derangements, suffered malabsorption of glucose and certain amino acids, as assessed by an in vivo perfusion technique. The reduction in glucose absorption ranged between 10% and 31% when the carbohydrate was pumped in concentrations of 2-80 mM. This alteration was compatible with a noncompetitive type of transport inhibition. The intestinal absorption of glycine, lysine, and phenylalanine were, respectively, decreased 22, 18, and 15% when these amino acids were present at 1 mM levels. Sodium transport was severely reduced (57.6 +/- 17.9 (SEM) vs. 124.2 +/- 17.4 muEq/min-cm) and intestinal mucosa (Na+-K+)-ATPase was concomitantly lower in the lead-intoxicated rats (186.4 +/- 19.0 vs 268.4 +/- 29.8 nmol P/min-mg protein). However, this enzyme was not altered in liver and kidney. Furthermore, intestinal mucosa fructose-1,6-diphosphatase, succinic dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, and tryptophan hydroxylase were not different in experimental and control animals. These studies substantiate the presence of functional and biochemical abnormalities in the intestinal mucosa of young rats when fed substantial amounts of a soluble lead salt. It is, therefore, reasonable to accept the possibility that physiologic damage occurs in tissues directly subjected to high and persistent levels of a toxic agents, as it occurs in other organs, underscoring the parallelism between transport mechanisms at the renal and intestinal levels.

The physiological and histochemical effects of PGF2alpha on isolated rabbit hearts were examined. The results showed a positive inotropic effect. The coronary flow increased. From the histochemical studies, adenosine triphosphatase (ATP-ase) and succinic dehydrogenase activities were increased while that of alkaline phosphatase was decreased. Glycogen granules were depleted. These findings were discussed on a histophysiological basis.

Histochemical fibre types classified in sections stained for succinic dehydrogenase (sdh) and myosin ATPase at pH 9.4, were found to be distributed in a consistent manner within the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and 4 soleus muscles of the adult rat. Simple morphometric techniques applied to complete transverse sections of both muscles showed that the relative distributions and proportions of fibre types along their deep to superficial, and medial to lateral, axes varied accoording to the histochemical method used for fibre typing. Similar differences occurred when the relative ranges of size exhibited by each fibre type were compared in sections stained for SDH and ATPase, and the discrepancies in fibre classification were confirmed by an analysis of individual fibres in serial sections. The findings are discussed in relation to those previosly reported for the EDL and soleus muscles of the rat.

This study reports on the distribution of bicarbonate-stimulated ATPase in rat intestinal epithelial cells. Brush-border membranes and basolateral membranes were separated from each other and from mitochondrial and other intracellular membranes by differential and density gradient centrifugation. Bicarbonate-sensitive ATPase activity followed the mitochondrial marker succinic dehydrogenase closely throughout all the centrifugation steps. The low HCO3--ATPase activity in purified brush-border and basolateral plasma membranes could be accounted for quantitatively by the small mitochondrial contamination. Consequently, there are no grounds for postulating that this enzyme has a direct role in H+ or HCO3- transport across the rat small intestine.

In the normal and randomly reinnervated plantaris muscle of rat staining for succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) activity differentiates three fiber types (A, B and C), staining for myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) differentiates three fiber types (alpha, beta and alpha beta). Here we present our finding type A corresponds to alpha beta fibers, B to beta or alpha beta, C to alpha or alpha beta. In normal soleus muscle both classifications were found to be compatible and B fibers correspond to beta and C to alpha fibers. An exception is the small percent of alpha beta fibers which correspond to B type. In randomly reinnervated soleus muscle changes in ATPase activity are not followed by changes in SDH staining and B fibers correspond to alpha, beta or alpha beta types.

Suckling rats were exposed for 15 and 30 days to manganese through the milk of nursing dams receiving 15 mg MnCl2--4H2O/kg/day orally and after which the neurological manifestations of metal poisoning were studied. No significant differences in the growth rate, developmental landmarks and walking movements were observed between the control and manganese-exposed pups. The metal concentration was significantly increased in the brain of manganese-fed pups at 15 days and exhibited a further three-fold increase over the control, at 30 days. The accumulation of the metal in the brain of manganese-exposed nursing dams was comparatively much less. A significant decrease in succinic dehydrogenase, adenosine triphosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase, adenosine deaminase, acetylcholine esterase and an increase in monoamine oxidase activity was observed in the brain of experimental pups and dams. The results suggest that the developing brain may also be susceptible to manganese.

The histoenzymatic characteristics of regenerating myofibers of rat masseter muscle following injection of 1% lidocaine, as well as morphometric and histochemical characteristics of the typical myofibers, were investigated. Myoblasts appeared initially by day 1 among numerous macrophages within the confines of degenerating myofibers. Myotubes predominated by the 3rd day. Complete regeneration of the muscle occurred by at least 45 days. Phosphorylase activity was absent at day 1 and reappeared by the 5th day when the regenerating myofibers showed slight activity. By the 15th day the myofiber types had partly differentiated; red myofibers were smaller and stained less intensely than the white myofibers. Myotubes stained uniformly for succinic dehydrogenase activity from 3 until 5 days. After 5 days this staining increased gradually. Myofiber types began differentiation by 15 days and were fully differentiated by 45 days. ATPase activity was barely evident by 1-3 days. This activity appeared uniformly low up to 5 days and increased to an intensity comparable with that of the typical myofiber by 15 days. Slight leucine aminopeptidase activity occurred in macrophages 1 day following injection. By 3 days this activity appeared in the remaining myoblasts and in the myotubes. Some activity was found in the fibroblasts. This staining intensity at 5 days was equal to that of earlier lesions. A trace of this activity was found at 7 days, and none at 15 days. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity was present in the macrophages by day 1. It increased by 3 days and occurred mainly in myoblasts and myotubes. This activity decreased by 5 days, and none was found by 7 days.

The cholerogenic effect produced in suckling rabbits by intraintestinal administration of a cholerogen was shown to be accompanied by the edema of villi, formation of lympho-histiocytic infiltrates in the stroma and bases of crypts, hemorrhages in the stroma of the villi and loss of individual enterocytes mostly on tops of the villi. In the large intestine, vacuolation and pyknosis of the epithelial nuclei and edema of the submucosa were observed. The intensity of the cholerogenic effect correlated with the degree of the decline of the activity of succinate dehydrogenase, adenosine triphosphatase, alkaline and acid phosphatases in the intestinal tract. Intraintestinal administration of heat-inactivated cholerogen induced no cholerogenic effect and the enzymatic activity in the intestinal tract declined focally and insignificantly.
