Enzyme activities related to aerobic metabolism and cyclic nucleotides were evaluated in muscle and nonmuscle cells of rat heart. The perinatal period from weaning to adult was studied. Malate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, and 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase activities of nonmuscle cells equal or exceed muscle cell activities in the weanling heart. Aerobic enzymes remain unchanged in nonmuscle cells during growth; however, muscle cell activities are enhanced. Adenylate cyclase and guanylate cyclase activities are higher in heart homogenates of weanling than adult rats. Despite elevated adenylate cyclase activity, cyclic AMP levels are identical in weanling and adult rats. Cyclic GMP levels are twofold higher in weanling than in adult rats. Muscle cell metabolism and cyclic nucleotide levels are associated with growth-related changes in heart function and cellularity, respectively.
