Female rats were injected subcutaneously with ethionine, and enzymic activities of liver membranes (Na+-k+-stimulated ATPase, Mg2+-stimulated ATPase, glucose-6-phosphatase, NADPH: cytochrome c oxido-reductase and NAD-nucleosidase) examined at proper intervals, during the intraperitoneal treatment of an egg phospholipid preparation (EPL). It is shown that EPL is unable to overcome the enzymic changes due to severe ethionine treatment, but is able to facilitate the recovery times after drug withdrawal for all the enzymic activities, except for NAD-nucleosidase. At lower dosage of the drug, the ethionine treatment is able to prevent the observed change of the glucose-6-phosphatase activity but not that of the Mg2+-ATPase. It is suggested that the EPL treatment may modify the chemical composition ahd/or architecture of liver membranes, altered by the ethionine injection, thus acting, at least partially, on the enzymic changes.

Cellular membranes were prepared from the non-extending part of dark grown hypocotyls of Phaseolus aureus. The relative effectiveness of continuous and discontinuous sucrose gradient centrifugation for the separation of membranes was investigated. Characteristic densities of membranes were determined by the localization of enzyme activities on continuous sucrose gradients: NADH-cytochrome c-reductase for endoplasmic reticulum, beta-1-3-glucan synthetase for plasma-membrane and IDPase for dictyosomes. The difficulties involved in the application of ATPase and IDPase as specific membrane markers are discussed. Negative staining of isolated fractions indicated that intact dictyosomes could be prepared from this tissue without the use of chemical fixatives in the homogenization medium. Extraction of isolated membranes showed that carbohydrate-binding proteins (lectins) were present both in an easily removable and in a more strongly bound form. In vivo incorporation of D-[U-14C]glucose and subsequent isolation and solubilization of the different membranes showed that sugar-containing polymers could be released without hydrolytic techniques and were present in the equivalent extracts that exhibited lectin activity. The possibility of lectin-polysaccharide complexes in endoplasmic reticulum and dictyosomes and their involvement in the synthesis and transport of secretory substances by the membranes is discussed.

Serial transverse sections of porcine longissimus dorsi muscle (18 pigs, 50 to 178 kg live weight) were reacted for NAD tetrazolium reductase and ATPase at pH 9.4, and for glycogen with the periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) reaction. Three histochemical types of muscle fibre were identified; (1) strong ATPase and weak NADH oxidative activity; (2) strong ATPase and intermediate NADH oxidative activity; and (3) weak ATPase and strong NADH oxidative activity. Immediate post mortem samples from one side of each animal were compared with a later post mortem sample from the other side by measuring the absorbance of PAS-stained glycogen at 570 nm with a microscope photometer. Later post mortem absorbance was expressed as a percentage of immediate post mortem absorbance in each category of muscle fibre in order to compensate for distributional error and different starting levels of glycogen. Muscle fibres with weak ATPase and strong NADH oxidative activity showed a progressive decrease in absorbance of PAS-stained glycogen post mortem. In some animals, fibres with strong ATPase and intermediate or weak NADH oxidative activity showed an initial post mortem increase in absorbance of PAS-stained glycogen which was then followed by a progressive decrease. The maximum rates of decrease in absorbance in the three fibre types did not differ to any great extent.

The experiment was carried out on rats, which were divided into three experimental and one control groups. The experimental animals were intraperitoneally injected with furfural in the dose of 58 mg/kg body weight for 30 days. In the liver samples obtained at autopsy, apart from routine staining with hematoxylin and eosin, estimation of the activity of the following enzymes was made: succinic dehydrogenase. NADH-tetrazol reductase, lactic dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate, adenosine-triphosphatase, Ca-formol, glucose-6-phosphatase and acid phosphatase. Glycogen content was also evaluated. A temporary decrease in the activity of reactions for the enzymes of tissue respiration, an increase in the activity of glucose-6-phosphatase with a simultaneous decrease of glycogen content, activation of intracellular digestive processes, and inhibition of active transport through biological membranes were found in animals intoxicated with furfural.

The effects of vitamin E deficiency on membrane integrity were studied by examining the temperature dependence of membrane-bound enzyme activities in liver mitochondria and microsome and in muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. In vitamin E-deficient rabbits, the specific activities at 37 degrees of mitochondrial oligomycin-sensitive ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3), beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.30), and microsomal glucose-6-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.9) were increased, whereas those of microsomal NADH cytochrome C reductase (EC 1.6.99.3) and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase were reduced in comparison to control rabbits. Arrhenius plots of activity against temperature yielded a linear plot over the range 10 to 40 degrees in the case of beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, NADH cytochrome C reductase and Ca-ATPase, and multiple discontinuities for glucose-6-phosphatase and oligomycin-sensitive ATPase. In control rabbits, all five enzymes showed a single discontinuity in the Arrhenius plot over the range 16 to 19 degrees. These results reflect changes in the microenvironment of membrane-bound enzymes as a consequence of vitamin E depletion.

The crude protein levels as well as the activities of various enzymes were studied in certain tissues of fetuses (80th through 114th days of development), piglets of different age groups, and pigs for slaughter. In most of the tissues tested the postnatal activities of Na-K-ATPase were beyond those recorded from fetuses. The highest GOT activities were recorded from the liver, myocardium, and kidneys. Activities were found to rise sizeably in some tissues after birth. The activity of GPT, too, exhibited age-dependent variations. The activity of leucine-aminopeptidase increased strongly after birth in liver and kidneys. Acid phosphatase activity was less markedly influenced by development phases. Those enzymes which are involved in the formation of fructose and glucose (aldolreductase, glucuronate-reductase, and sorbite-dehydrogenase) had their highest activities, all age-dependent, in liver and kidneys.

Biopsy specimens from the gastrocnemius or rectus femoris muscle of 20 patients with intermittent claudication were studied using fresh frozen cryostat sections and histochemical reactions for adenosine triphosphatase, nicotinamide adenine nucleotide dehydrogenase reductase and phosphorylase and modified Gomori trichrome staining. Neuropathic changes, such as fibertype grouping and small group atrophy, were present to some extent in all of the biopsy specimens. Myogenic muscle changes such as necrosis and phagocytosis were seen in approximately one third and various forms of myofibrillar disorganization in approximately two thirds of the specimens. The amount and size of the type I aerobic fibers increased with the increasing severity of the ischemic disease.

The present work is a continuation of our studies on mitochondrial functions and enzyme activities after acute exhaustive swimming in liver and myocardium. In rat heart mitochondria the activities of SDH, cytochrome oxidase and ATPase (DNP-stimulated) increase after swimming and remain at that level until the end of the 22-hour rest period studied. The enzyme complexes--rotenone-sensitive NAD. H-cytochrome c-reductase and succinate-cytochrome c-reductase--decrease their activities in both experimental groups. The reduced activity of these two enzymes is determined by changes in this part of the respiratory chain which occur after the incorporation of DCPIP in the oxidation-reduction processes. The marker enzyme of the outer mitochondrial membranes--rotenone-insensitive NAD.H-cytochrome c-reductase--reveals unchanged activity after swimming and a 22-hour period of rest. The different changes in the activities of enzymes with different localization and organization in heart mitochondria are explained by disorganization of the inner membranes after exhaustive swimming, which could induce both activation of some enzymes and inhibition of others. The effect of certain factors during muscle exercise which could cause the established structural and functional changes in the mitochondria is discussed.

A sporadic case of central core disease in a 5 1/2-year-old girl is reported. Clinically, a retarded motor development existed, furthermore, a muscle weakness and hypotonia of the extremities and trunk, contractures of the hip- and knee-joint,and luxation of both hip-joints. Biopsy specimens are taken from both Mm. gastrocnemii. Muscle fibres show, by morphologic examination, 95 per cent cores, which are characteristic for this myopathy. A further abnormality is seen inthe histochemical preparations for phosphorylase, succinate dehydrogenase, NAD diaphorase tetrazolium reductase, myofibrillar ATPase as well as AS-reaction with and without diastase digestion. With these techniques the muscle fibres show an uniform reaction pattern in which the activities of the oxidative andglycolytic enzymes correspond to the type I fibres of healthy persons. The cores show a lack of a activity of the oxidative and glycolytic enzymes as well as are ATPase- and PAS-negative. By reason of this histochemical behaviour it is suggested that the cores are predominantly unstructured. The cause of this disease might be complex disturbances in the neuro-muscular system manifested in the fetal period.

Each of two Desert Sheep was infected with 1500 cercariae of Schistosoma mansoni of Northern Sudan. Signs of infection were anorexia, soft faces, progressive weakness and loss of wool. The sheep were killed 254 and 269 days after infection. The findings were heavy infiltration of the lamina propria with inflammatory cells, numerous ova in the submucosa, hyperplasia of lymphoid tissue, oedema of the mesenteric lymph nodes, and focal pulmonary oedema and congestion. There were egg granulomas, focal necrosis, schistosomal pigment, fatty change, depletion of glycogen and reduction in the activity of adenosine triphosphatase, succinic tetrazolium reductase and glucose-6-phosphatase in the liver. In one sheep 1330 cercariae penetrated and 700 matured to produce males and females in a 5:2 ratio. In the other sheep, about one third of the cercariae penetrated and matured. The ratio of males to females was 3:1.
