The histrochemistry of the adrenal glands was studied in four adult male marmosets (two Callithrix jacchus and two Callithrix penicillata). It was impossible to demonstrate any reactivity to UDPG-GT, ADH, alanyl aminopeptidase, leucine aminopeptidase, xilitol (NAD-dependent) dehydrogenase, beta-glucuronidase and aryl-sulfatase in these glands. Total phosphorylase was found in scattered cells of the glomerulosa and adjacent outer fasciculata of one C. penicillata. The dehydrogenases (LDH, G-6-PDH,6-PGDH, NADPH2-TR,ICDH,SDH,NADH2-TR, alpha-GPDH, beta-OHBDH) as well as the hydrolases (except alkaline phosphatase, ATPase, and acetylcholinesterase) showed a stonger reactivity in the cortical part. Some hydrolases (naphthol acetate esterase, acid phosphatase) and cytochrome oxidase were less reactive in the zona glomerulosa, where the dehydrogenases were more abundant. The outer fasciculata and the reticularis also showed a strong dehydrogenase reactivity.

We have modeled the energy metabolism of the perfused rat heart in order to elucidate the interaction of physiological and biochemical control mechanisms. This model which includes glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and related metabolism, contains 68 submodels of individual enzymes and transport mechanisms including both cytosolic and mitochondrial reactions. The method of model construction, which relies heavily on fitting observed in situ behavior to known algebraic rate laws for isolated enzymes, and its data requirements and necessary assumptions are described. Simulation of a CO-induced anoxic preparation is described in detail. Here glycolysis increases sharply, due to both increased glucose uptake and phosphorylase activation (there is rapid interconversion between a and b forms, both of which are active here); this causes a damped glycolytic oscillation originating with the glycogen-handling enzymes rather than phosphofructokinase. The behavior and physiological consequences of ATPase activity and of a lactate permease which exports lactate to the perfusate are discussed.

The case of a 35 years-old man, with chronic proximal muscle atrophy in which at the muscle biopsy tubular aggregates were found by histochemistry procedures is reported. The tubular aggregates stained positive with the modified Gomori trichrome, haematoxylin-eosin, DPNH-diaphorase, non specific esterases, phosphorylase, P.A.S., oil red O and lactate dehydrogenase. They did not show in the routine and acid pre-incubated ATPase, acid and alkaline phosphatases and succinate dehydrogenase. Only found in type II fibers. A brief discussion about the pathogenesis and function of the tubular aggregates is made. The authors believe that the tubular aggregates in this case are secondary to prolonged use of phenobarbital and diphenylhydantoin, associated with the basic denervation process and alcohol abuse.

Embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas from the nasopharynx of two children were examined by histochemical methods commonly applied to muscle biopsies. These stains included nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-tetrazolium reductase (NADH-TR), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), PAS, PAS-diastase, myophosphorylase, calcium-mediated adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) preincubated at high and low pH, and oil red O. Myofibrils were easily identified with ATPase and blood vessel walls were also stained. NADH-TR clearly showed longitudinal and cross-striations that were not seen with H&E or PTAH stains. The modified Gomori trichrome stain additionally contributed to the recognition of myofibrils. Some techniques of muscle histochemistry applied to fresh frozen sections of tumor tissue may provide evidence of muscular differentiation in otherwise poorly differentiated sarcomas for a more accurate diagnosis of rhabdomyosarcoma.

Between birth and 10 days the mean growth rate of peroneus longus motor end plates was 0-298 mum/day. A similar rate was found in seven other muscles from different anatomical regions. At birth, sartorius spindles contained three types of intrafusal myofibres; (i) large diameter with conspicuously strong acid-stable, and moderate or strong alkali-stable adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) reactions; (ii) large diameter with weak or negligible acid-stable and alkali-stable ATPase; (iii) small diameter with weak or negligible acid-stable, and strong alkali-stable ATPase. All had a high mitochondrial enzyme content and positive PAS reaction. With the exception of some large diameter fibres, all reacted positively for phosphorylase. The frequency distribution of diameters was unimodal at birth but by 9 or 10 days was bimodal.

Intact soleus and extensor digitorum longus muscles in the rat were freely grafted to the contralateral leg after either no preliminary treatment or 14 days prior denervation. Normal muscle grafts during the first week were characterized by a central zone of degenerating original muscle fibers (disappearing by 7-9 days) and a peripheral zone, containing regenerating muscle as well as small numbers of surviving original muscle fibers. A radial gradient of regeneration was establihed, with more mature muscle at the periphery and less mature muscle toward the center. Denervated grafts were characterized by rapid degeneration (within 2-3 days) of original muscle fibers in the central area, rapid appearance of regenerating muscle fibers (e.g. cross striations by 5 days) with uniform levels of differentiation throughout the graft and larger numbers of surviving original muscle fibers at the periphery. During the first week, stages of muscle differentiation in denervated grafts were attained 1-2 days earlier than comparable stages in normal grafts. Later stages of muscle differentiation were similar in both types of grafts. Histochemical studies revealed a loss of enzyme activity (phosphorylase, ATPase and SDH) in the center of early (2-4-day) normal and denervated grafts. Denervated grafts, however, possessed a thicker peripheral rim of enzymatically active surviving muscle fibers than normal grafts. In both types of grafts the old muscle fibers in the center were replaced by enzymatically active regenerating muscle fibers which stained uniformaly (ATPase) until 30 days. By 60 days a mixed fiber pattern had developed. Muscle spindles were found within the grafts.

Muscle samples were obtained from the gastrocnemius of 17 female and 23 male track athletes, 10 untrained women, and 11 untrained men. Portions of the specimen were analyzed for total phosphorylase, lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), and succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activities. Sections of the muscle were stained for myosin adenosine triphosphatase, NADH2 tetrazolium reductase, and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase. Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) was measured on a treadmill for 23 of the volunteers (6 female athletes, 11 male athletes, 10 untrained women, and 6 untrained men). These measurements confirm earlier reports which suggest that the athlete's preference for strength, speed, and/or endurance events is in part a matter of genetic endowment. Aside from differences in fiber composition and enzymes among middle-distance runners, the only distinction between the sexes was the larger fiber areas of the male athletes. SDH activity was found to correlate 0.79 with VO2max, while muscle LDH appeared to be a function of muscle fiber composition. While sprint- and endurance-trained athletes are characterized by distinct fiber compositions and enzyme activities, participants in strength events (e.g., shot-put) have relatively low muscle enzyme activities and a variety of fiber compositions.

Temporary ischaemia of the hind linb of the rat was produced using a tourniquet with controlled pressure. Changes in the muscle seen after Gomori trichrome staining and after histochemical reactions for NADHdiaphorase, ATPases and phosphorylase were correlated with the duration of the ischaemia and the time of recovery. Histopathological changes were seen first after 2 h of ischaemia and increased thereafter; necrosis of most of the muscles occurred between 4 and 6 h of ischaemia. Necrosis and phagocytosis of muscle fibres and later the amount of regenerating fibres with characteristic histochemical staining properties increased linearly with increasing duration of ischaemia. Even after the most severe lesions of seemingly total necrosis of the muscle after 6 h of ischaemia most of the muscle regenerated within 18 days. Morphological alterations such as variation in fibre size, split fibres and central nuclei were still observed 226 days after ischaemia at which time the follow-up was terminated. Fibre type grouping was seen first after 45-90 days subsequent to 4 and 6 h ischaemia after incubation for ATPase, indicating concomitant neurogenic lesion in addition to the direct ischaemia of the muscle fibres.

The study was undertaken to race the histochemical and electron microscopic development patterns of human myogenesis from the 9th to the 26th week of foetal life. Particular attention was paid to the possibility of appearance of metabolic or structural differences between individual skeletal muscle fibres in early periods of myogenesis. The 9th week of foetal life is the period when primitive myotubes are formed. Irregular distribution of the ATPase (pH 9-4) activity observed at this time is due to differences in the structure of fusing myoblasts. The early myotubes show a high activity of the oxidative enzymes and lack of phosphorylase. Conversion of immature muscle cells into structurally mature fibres begins between the 20th and the 24th week. The latter fibres exhibit a uniform activity of all the studied enzymes and thus resemble the intermediate type of fibres of mature muscles. From about the 26th week on the typical mosaic pattern of the enzymatic activity is observed. All the differences in enzymatic activity which appear in fibers prior to their full morphologicaal maturity result from differences in developmental stages of the fibres at the given moment. The present study also suggests that there are no morphological or metabolic differences between individual humanskeletal muscle fibres prior to their metabolic differentiation into types which occurs after their innervation.

The histochemical profiles of myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide diaphorase (NADDase), and phosphorylase (Pase) activities were studied in the respiratory muscles of the chicken. Most respiratory muscles contained fibers exhibiting 18 possible combinations of staining reactions (dark or light ATPase; dark, intermediate, or light NADDase; dark, intermediate, or light Pase). Fibers that stained light for ATPase constituted as little as 10% of the total population in rectus abdominis, but as much as 32% of the total in costosternalis pars major. Those fibers did not tend to be smaller than fibers that stained dark for ATPase in the respiratory muscles as a group. Assuming these staining characteristics are correlated with functional properties of the fibers, as they are in mammals, the majority of the fibers should contract rapidly (dark ATPase) and be fatigue resistant (dark and intermediate NADDase).
