In vivo administration of L-thyroxine (L-T4) in Anabas testudineus, while significantly stimulated the activities of cytochrome c oxidase and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (alpha-GPDH), inhibited glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH), cytosolic and mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase (cyt. MDH; mit. MDH), and Mg2+ DNP-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Mg2+ ATPase) activities. The activities of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), and catalase remained unaltered after L-T4 treatment. Administration of protein synthesis inhibitors such as actinomycin D, while significantly inhibited cytochrome oxidase, alpha-GPDH, catalase, SDH, and Mg2+ ATPase activities, did not change LDH, cyt. MDH, and mit. MDH activities. Chloramphenicol injection significantly stimulated cytochrome oxidase, alpha-GPDH, and G-6-PDH activities. Simultaneous injections of actinomycin D or chloramphenicol with 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (L-T3) or L-T4 prevented the effects of thyroid hormones on enzyme activities, when compared to the respective controls.

Some indices of erythrocyte metabolism (EM): activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD), glutathione reductase (GR) and common adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) activity were studied in 102 patients with acute viral hepatitis (AVH). The suppression of erythrocyte enzymatic activity (EE) was revealed. It was most noticeable at the peak of average and severe AVH. In a decrease of jaundice and during reconvalescence G-6-PD, GR and ATPase activity reduced up to the control level. The suppression of LDH activity was more noticeable, maintained at discharge and was of prognostic value in investigation at early periods of disease in cases of prolonged reconvalescence. Changes in EE activity showed correlation with indices of liver function (levels of certain bilirubin fractions and transaminase activity). In cases of developing deficiency of erythrocyte G-6-PD activity there was a high correlation between a degree of cytolysis and the suppression of erythrocyte LDH activity. The importance of erythrocyte metabolic derangements revealed in AVH pathogenesis was discussed.

The architectural arrangement and selected histochemical properties of hepatocytes in the rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri Richardson) were examined. Light and transmission electron microscopic (TEM) examination following fixation by portal venous perfusion revealed a tubular arrangement of hepatocytes. Lobules, as defined in the adult mammal, were absent. Biliary epithelial cells associated with bile preductules and ductules were a prominent feature of trout liver. Patterns and location of reaction products for glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH), and magnesium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), enzymes preferentially distributed in mammalian liver, were demonstrated in trout liver. A slightly heavier staining pattern for G-6-Pase was seen around presumptive portal venules but all other enzyme reaction patterns were uniform throughout the liver parenchyma. Following ATPase localization, four sizes of biliary passageways (canaliculi, bile preductules, ductules, and ducts) were visualized. Maximum glycogen retention was achieved with freeze-drying and glycolmethacrylate embedding and with this method intense, uniform glycogen staining was observed in all areas of the liver. Companion TEM examinations revealed large depots of glycogen within hepatocytes. The results are important for interpretation and description of the effects of toxic/carcinogenic alteration on trout liver.

The plasma of normal man and the rat, and an acetone extract of hypothalamus from the rat, have an ability to inhibit Na-K-ATPase which is related directly to salt intake. The ability of the plasma to inhibit Na-K-ATPase is raised in essential hypertension. The ability of plasma and of an acetone extract of hypothalamus from six spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rats and six normotensive control (WKY) rats to inhibit Na-K-ATPase of fresh guinea-pig kidney was studied using cytochemical bioassay techniques. With a validated assay, which measures the capacity of biological samples to stimulate glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) as an index of their capacity to inhibit Na-K-ATPase, the mean G6PD-stimulating ability of the plasma from the SHR and the WKY rat was 772.3 +/- 48.1 units/ml and 12.5 +/- 2.6 units/ml respectively (P less than 0.01) and of the hypothalamic extracts it was 2.2 +/- 1.7 X 10(8) and 4.5 +/- 1.8 X 10(4) units/hypothalamus (P less than 0.01). With a semi-quantitative cytochemical assay, which measures Na-K-ATPase activity directly, plasma and an acetone extract of hypothalamus from the spontaneously hypertensive rat had much greater capacities to inhibit Na-K-ATPase than plasma and extract from the WKY rat. These raised levels of Na-K-ATPase inhibitory activity in the plasma of the SHR rat are similar to the highest values found in the plasma of patients with essential hypertension.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The effects of unilateral nephrectomy and the impact of gentamicin administration on renal tissue enzyme activities in adult Wistar rats were investigated. Gentamicin 200 mg/kg body wt. or an equivalent volume of saline to control rats was administered subcutaneously on three consecutive days, followed by unilateral nephrectomy. Rats were killed on day 3, 7 or 14 following nephrectomy. Alkaline phosphatase, predominantly a proximal tubular brush border enzyme, rose in both the experimental and control groups, however, significantly less in the gentamicin treated rats. Aspartate aminotransferase activity, an enzyme participating in renal glucogenesis, increased transiently in the control but remained unchanged in the experimental group. No difference in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity between the two groups was observed, probably reflecting the localization of this enzyme to distal tubular segments, a site unaffected by gentamicin. Significant and similar increases in Mg2+ and Na+ K+ ATPase were observed on day 14 in both groups. The administration of the drug resulted in a marked reduction in oxygen consumption, with a higher oxidation to phosphorylation ratio (P/O). Serum creatinine concentration was significantly higher on days 3 and 7 in the experimental group reverting to control values on the 14th day. Urea concentration increased significantly on days 3 and 7, decreasing on the 14th day to values slightly, but significantly, higher than those of the controls.

Nucleoside diphosphokinase (NDK) of human platelets has been purified by chromatography on Blue Sepharose CL-6B gel (purification factor of 950) and shown to be free of adenylate kinase, ATPase and adenylate cyclase. The molecular weight was 70,000 with subunits of 17,000. The pH optimum was 8.0 Km values for ATP and dTDP were determined in two ways using the pyruvate kinase-lactate dehydrogenase coupled enzyme assay. Values of 0.38 and 0.20 mM were obtained for ATP and 0.29 and 0.21 mM for dTDP. Km values for ADP (0.024 mM) and GTP (0.12 mM) were determined with the hexokinase-glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase coupled enzyme assay. These values are in agreement with those reported for NDK from other sources. Theophylline, which inhibits the NDK activity of intact platelets and platelet membrane preparations and inhibits the ADP-induced shape change of platelets, was shown to be a competitive inhibitor of both the free and phosphorylated forms of NDK with competitive inhibition constants (Kic) of 9.3 and 9.6 mM respectively. Papaverine, another cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor, which also inhibits the ADP-induced shape change of platelets, had no inhibitory effect on platelet NDK. It was concluded that the inhibitory effect of theophylline on the activity of the purified enzyme was due to the structural similarity between the methylxanthine and the adenine moiety of ADP.

Some physicochemical properties of partially purified hypothalamic material from the spontaneously hypertensive rat, and of plasma from man and the rat, have been characterized using a validated cytochemical bioassay which measures the ability of biological fluids to stimulate fresh guinea-pig kidney glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) after 2 min of exposure to the test substance, as an indication of their ability to inhibit Na+/K+ adenosine triphosphatase (Na+/K+-ATPase) after 4-6 min of exposure. The G6PD-stimulating activity of both hypothalamic extract and plasma is soluble in water and insoluble in chloroform. During electrophoresis the activity from both sites appears in the same fractions and travels considerably further than lysine. After high-pressure liquid chromatography the activity of hypothalamic extract appears in a discreet fraction which does not absorb u.v. light. The activity of both the hypothalamic extract and plasma survives boiling and acid hydrolysis, but is substantially inhibited by prior incubation with digoxin antibody. From ultrafiltration studies, the substance responsible for the ability to stimulate G6PD appears to have a molecular weight of less than 500. The G6PD-stimulating activity of hypothalamic extracts was destroyed by ashing and by base hydrolysis. The ability of plasma of high activity to stimulate G6PD is considerably increased by incubating at 37 degrees C for 15 min and destroyed by incubation for 45 min. It is concluded that these and several other previously noted similarities suggest that the cytochemically assayable Na+/K+-ATPase-inhibiting/G6PD-stimulating activity in the plasma and hypothalamus may be due to the same ouabain-like substance.

The ability of plasma from 3- and 9-week-old Milan hypertensive rats and their normotensive controls to inhibit Na+,K+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) was studied using cytochemical bioassay techniques in fresh tissue. With a validated cytochemical bioassay that measures the capacity of biological samples to stimulate glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity in guinea pig proximal tubules as an indication of their capacity to inhibit Na+,K+-ATPase, the mean glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase-stimulating ability of the plasma of the 9-week-old Milan hypertensive rats and their normotensive controls was 586.0 +/- 88 and 23.4 +/- 8.3 U/ml (n = 7; p less than 0.001), while that of the 3-week-old Milan hypertensive rats (before the main rise in arterial pressure) and their normotensive controls was 99.9 +/- 27.4 and 7.8 +/- 1.8 U/ml (n = 7; p less than 0.001). With the use of a semiquantitative cytochemical assay that measures Na+,K+-ATPase activity directly, plasma from the adult hypertensive rats had a much greater capacity to inhibit Na+,K+-ATPase than the plasma of the control rats. The significantly raised levels found in the young hypertensive rats before the main rise in arterial pressure are consistent with the hypothesis that the rise in the ability of plasma to inhibit Na+,K+-ATPase is due to an inherited renal difficulty in excreting sodium.

Within the uterine glands, the following enzymes were demonstrated by histochemical methods after 30, 58, 80, 100, and 110 d of pregnancy, respectively: beta-N-acetyl-hexosaminidase, beta-galactosidase, beta-glucuronidase, alpha-mannosidase, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, esterases, cytochrome oxidase, 5-nucleotidase, leucine aminopeptidase, adenosine triphosphatase, diaphorases (NADH, NADPH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD, NADP), beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, glycero-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, NAD-glycero-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase (NAD, NADP), lactate dehydrogenase. The results show that the activities of G-6-PDH, 6-PGDH, and cytochrome oxidase increase within secreting cells during the 2nd half of pregnancy. The activities of the other enzymes remained almost unchanged during the period of investigation. The description of our results distinguishes between gland neck, middle, and distal part of the secretory unit, respectively. In general, the enzyme activities are similar within the middle and distal gland segments, but lower in the epithelia of the neck region. The activity of dehydrogenases was medium to intensive within the middle and distal gland segments, but only low to medium within the neck portion. Of the hydrolases, the acid phosphatase, ATPase, leucine aminopeptidase, and beta-galactosidase demonstrated an intensive activity within activity secreting cells. The enzyme activities of the gland epithelia are compared with these of the uterine surface epithelia and the histochemical results are discussed in context with their significance in histiotrophic nutrition.

The goal was to describe the metabolic profile of ganglionic and cortical arteries and arterioles in aging normotensive male rats. Five enzymes indicative of key metabolic pathways in the vessel walls were semiquantitatively evaluated using bright-field histochemical microscopy. Lactate dehydrogenase showed significant reactivity which increased with vessel diameter in cortical and ganglionic vessels in all age groups tested. Succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase showed little reactivity in both cortical and ganglionic vessels, suggesting a reduced role for aerobic metabolic pathways. Myosin ATPase reactivity was high in cortical and ganglionic vessels. Only this enzyme showed an increased reactivity that was correlated with the age and diameter of the vessel. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase reactivity was more pronounced in cortical than ganglionic vessels, suggesting that the hexose-monophosphate-shunt may be more active in the cortical vessels. There were no regional differences in enzyme reactivity throughout the caudatoputamen. In conclusion, both the cortical and ganglionic vessels are metabolically active, with significant anaerobic glycolysis, and reduced, but observable capacity for aerobic metabolism. The decreased myosin ATPase reactivity and the low level of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase reactivity in the ganglionic arterioles of senescent rats may contribute to the susceptibility of these vessels to cerebrovascular accidents.
