Administration of 60,000 i.e. of vitamin A into rats within three weeks caused an increase in amount of reticulocytes, in the rate of glucose utilization and in formation of lactic acid by erythrocytes. The activity of glycolytic enzymes was intensified. The activity of hexokinase was increased by 84.6%, activities of aldolase and phosphohexoisomerase were increased by 34%. But in the erythrocytes content of AMP, ADP and ATP was unaltered, probably due to activation of total and Na+, K+-dependent ATPase. The harmful effect of an excess of the vitamin A was manifested in an increased content of Na+ in erythrocytes and also in decreased stability of the cells to acid hemolytics.

ATPase activity of actomyosin and activity of glycogenolytic enzymes were distinctly increased during postnatal period of development. Direct correlation was observed between the actomyosin ATPase and phosphofructokinase, phosphohexoisomerase, enolase, pyruvate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase and "bound" fraction of aldolase. Kinetic patterns of phosphofructokinase (Km and Hill's coefficient) were not altered at the postnatal period. Formation of complexes between the contractile proteins and glycolytic enzymes appears to be important in development of contractile function.

The authors studied the histochemical and ultrastructural alterations of human muscles after spontaneous rupture of the tendon. Both succinate dehydrogenase (in type 1 fibres), and ATPase (in type 2 fibres) activity decreased in all injured muscles. In the intact antagonists and in contralateral muscles alterations were not found. The creatine phosphokinase and aldolase activity were decreased also in the injured muscles. The lactate dehydrogenase activity was various both in affected and in unaffected antagonists muscles. 2 weeks or more after the rupture of the tendon, in the injured muscles the number of type 1 fibres were decreased and therefore a statistically significant type 2 fibre predominance occurred. Ultrastructurally the disruption and disorientation of the myofibrils, streaming and disorganisation of Z line were found. The sarcolemma was arranged, the sarcoplasmic reticulum was dilated; both normal, pycnotic and enlarged mitochondria were observed. The motor end-plates were not discernible.

Several glycolytic enzymes were observed to have between 40-90% of their activities associated with the particulate fractions of lysed nerve endings. The enzymes showing high particulate activity in lysed nerve endings were hexokinase (EC 2.7.1.1), aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13), glucosephosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.9), phosphofructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11), glyceraldehyde-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12), pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) and lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.27). With the exception of phosphofructokinase, 80% or more of the particle associated activity of each enzyme was solubilized by salt treatment indicating the association with particles was ionic. Sub-fractionation of lysed nerve endings showed hexokinase and fumarase (EC 4.2.1.2) had the highest specific activity in the same fractions which is consistent with observations indicating that hexokinase is associated with mitochondria. The other glycolytic zymes having high particulate activity, aldolase, glucosephosphate isomerase, phosphofructokinase, glyceraldehyde-phosphate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase and lactate dehydrogenase, showed enrichment in fractions containing synaptosomal membranes, i.e. the fractions having highest specific activity of acetylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.7) and (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3).

It is shown that on the 27-30th day of pregnancy in the myometrium cytoplasm of female rabbits the content of proteins, the aldolase (EC 4.1.2.7) and lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) activities are increased. Redistribution between fractions of certain lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) isoenzymes is observed: the fraction of LDH4--5 increases and that of LDH1--2 decreases, and the ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) activity lowers as well. A rise in the amount of proteins in the female rabbits myometrium cytoplasm in the last days of pregnancy and the growing fraction of LDH4--5 testify to the myometrium enchanced contractility during the labour.

Human erythrocyte ghosts were solubilized in a low ionic strength medium containing 1% Triton X-100 and subjected to electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels containing Triton X-100. Five major bands were stained with Coomassie Blue, all except one band being heterogenous when re-electrophoresed in gels containing sodium dodecyl sulphate. It was possible to detect acetylcholinesterase, non-specific esterase, ATPase, alkaline phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, and aldolase activities on the Triton-containing polyacrylamide gels. Two of the enzymes, ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase, showed substantial inhibition by Triton X-100 in quantitative studies. This appears to be a useful method for studying membrane enzymes in normal and pathological red cells.

Histologic investigations together with histochemical and photometric measurements of enzyme activities were performed in retina of rabbits, whose blood supply had been totally interrupted for 1h. A retinal edema developed affecting the internal layers between the inner limiting membrane and the internal plexiform and ganglion cell layer. Although this edema was quite remarkable at the posterior pole of the eye, it diminished toward the periphery, disappearing near the ora serrata. The activities of the following enzymes were investigated: hexokinase, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, aldolase, glyceraldehydephosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, ATPase, and phosphorylase. The most striking finding was the total disappearance of phosphorylase activity under pressure ischemia. ATPase and aldolase showed a decreased activity in the ischemic retina, and malate dehydrogenase a slightly diminished one. Concerning the other enzymes, no significant differences between normal and ischemic retina were observed.

Embryonal nervous tissue from Wistar rats was transplanted into male rats of Wistar and August strains. Activity of eight enzymes belonging to various systems was estimated in brain cortex of rats recipients within 36 days after the transplantation. Lactate dehydrogenase, alanine aminotransferase, acid phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase, ATPase and aldolase exhibited the dissimilarly decreased rate of activity in brain cortex of Wistar rats after transplantation as compared with the enzymatic activity in intact animals of this strain, while activity of alkaline phosphatase and esterases hydrolyzing alpha-naphthyl acetate was increased. Activation of almost all the enzymes studied was found within 36 days in Wistar rats after the transplantation. The rate of activity of zonal esterase isoenzymes was higher in brain cortex of August rats after transplantation of embryonal nervous tissue from Wistar strain as compared with that of Wistar to Wistar rats transplantation. The data obtained suggest that tissues of donors affected definitely the enzymatic activity in brain cells of rats-recipients as activity of most enzymes studied was higher in brain cortex of donors as compared with that of recipients.

A method for the preparative high-yield electroelution of proteins from sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel strips was established. The method consisted of SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, detection of proteins with sodium acetate and electrophoretic elution at 200 V for 3 h by utilizing a horizontal flat-bed gel electrophoresis apparatus. Standard proteins with molecular masses of 14-66 kilodalton (cytochrome c, aldolase, ovalbumin and bovine serum albumin) were recovered with an average yield of 73.6 +/- 2.3%. A membrane-bound protein, rat skeletal muscle Ca(2+)-ATPase (100 kilodalton) was also well recovered (over 60%). This method was applicable to the purification of proteins required for N-terminal amino acid sequencing and to raise antibodies.

The S-100 protein family constitutes a subgroup of Ca(2+)-binding proteins of the EF-hand type comprising three dimeric isoforms, S-100a0, S-100a and S-100b, plus a number of structurally related proteins displaying 28-55% homology with S-100 subunits. S-100 protein was discovered in 1965; yet, its biological functions have not been fully elucidated. The present report will review the putative biological roles of S-100 protein. Both intracellular and extracellular roles have been proposed for S-100 protein. Within cells, S-100 protein has been reported to regulate protein phosphorylation, ATPase, adenylate cyclase, and aldolase activities and Ca(2+)-induced Ca2+ release. Also, cytoskeletal systems, namely microtubules and microfilaments have been reported to be regulated by the protein in the presence of Ca2+. Some molecular targets of S-100 protein within cells, have been identified. This is the case with microtubule proteins, caldesmon, and a brain aldolase. S-100 protein has been reported to be secreted; extracellular S-100 protein can stimulate neuronal differentiation, glial proliferation, and prolactin secretion. However, the mechanisms by which S-100 is secreted and stimulates the above processes are largely unknown. Future research should characterize these latter aspects of S-100 biology and find out the linkage between its intracellular effects and its extracellular activities.
