The influence of hypoxia (pO2 = 85 mmHg) lasting 5 h, a strong single bleeding of the animals, and the effect of hyperoxia (pO2 = 745 and 1520 mmHg) lasting 24 and 5 h, respectively, on the 2.3-DPG concentration of red cells from rat has been studied. A distinct increase in 2.3-DPG concentration at hypoxia and bleedig, but no reliable alteration in hyperoxia were found. When bled and anemic animals are exposed to hyperoxia (24 h, pO2 = 745 mmHg, normal air pressure) there is also observed a rise of 2.3-DPG concentration, which is much less than in normoxia. A non-linear relationship was established between the change of 2.3-DPG concentration and the percentage of deoxyhemoglobin in the centralvenous blood.

Increased plasma erythropoietin (ESF) activity, a rise in RBC 2,3-DPG, and a 'right shift' of the oxygen hemoglobin equilibrium curve following androgen administration to mice in ambient or hyperoxic conditions, was demonstrated. If androgens had a direct effect on the RBC metabolism, increased 2,3-DPG would result in a facilitated release of oxygen to the tissue. This would have been accompanied by a decrease rather than an increase in the level of ESF. Hyperoxia has abolished detectable rising levels of plasma ESF and RBC 2,3-DPG following androgen administration. These levels were close to those seen in the ambient nontreated mice.

A pulse oximeter (Ohmeda Biox 3700) and two transcutaneous systems (Radiometer TCM3) were applied simultaneously to 18 newborn infants with respiratory insufficiency. All infants had either an umbilical catheter placed in the mid thoracic aorta or a radial artery catheter. The average monitoring time was 2 hours. Arterial blood pO2, pCO2 and pH (Radiometer ABL300), arterial sO2, HbCO and metHb (Radiometer OSM3), erythrocyte 2,3 DPG concentration, and fetal hemoglobin fraction (alkali denaturation kinetic method) were measured. Using arterial sO2 and pO2 as reference, the analytical bias of pulse oximetry (-0.5 +/- 1.0%, mean +/- 1 SD) corresponded in magnitude, when converted to pO2, to that of transcutaneous - pO2 (0.6 +/- 1.4 kPa for combined O2-CO2 electrode and -0.1 +/- 2.3 kPa for single O2 electrode). Transcutaneous pCO2 showed the smallest bias (0.3 +/- 0.3 kPa). Both pulse oximetry and transcutaneous pO2 electrodes were good as trend monitors detecting rapid changes in the infants' oxygenation status. The pulse oximeter offers certain advantages in not requiring calibration or heating. The variations in the levels of fetal hemoglobin fraction (44 to 97%), pH (7.27 to 7.49), pCO2 (3.3 to 6.8 kPa) and 2,3 diphosphoglycerate concentration (1.6 to 5.9 mmol/l) between the infants studied, resulted in a variable pO2-sO2 relation (p50 2.5 to 3.5 kPa). This presents difficulties in interpreting sO2 values in sick newborn infants, and we therefore recommend caution in using a pulse oximeter to apply strict limits for avoiding hypoxia and hyperoxia in this population.

Rana catesbeiana Shaw tadpoles and adults were maintained at 20-23 degrees C under aerial and aquatic normoxia (PO2 150 mmHg), hyperoxia (PO2 275 mmHg) and hypoxia (PO2 75 mmHg) for 4 weeks, after which the following blood measurements were made: haematocrit, red blood cell count, haemoglobin concentration, mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration, O2 capacity, O2 equilibrium curve, Bohr shift, Hill's coefficient and intraerythrocytic concentration of nucleotide triphosphates (ATP + GTP) and 2,3-DPG. Normoxic tadpoles had much higher blood O2 affinity (P50 9-10 mmHg) than adults (P50 35 mmHg) but a lower haemoglobin concentration, haematocrit and O2 capacity. The concentration of intraerythrocytic phosphates was higher in normoxic tadpoles than in adults, indicating that the higher O2 affinity of normoxic tadpole blood was due to the haemoglobins themselves, rather than affinity modulators. Chronic hypoxia in tadpoles produced little change in whole blood P50, and no significant change in any other blood variable. In adult bullfrogs, on the other hand, O2 capacity doubled through polycythaemia, and the P50 decreased by 11 mmHg (35%), though apparently not from any significant change in concentration of intraerythrocytic phosphates. Hyperoxia produced no haematological changes in either larvae or adults. In adult bullfrogs exposed to chronic hypoxia, the morphology of the gas exchange organs does not change (Burggren & Mwalukomo, 1983), but instead profound adjustments occur in the blood, favouring O2 transport under these conditions. The blood of the tadpole shows little or no response to chronic hypoxia, with morphological adjustments in skin, gills and lungs constituting the major response.

Hypoxia is the alleged stimulus for initiation of increase of carbonic anhydrase II (CAII) and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG) synthesis of red blood cells from late chick embryos. The PO2-dependent regulation of red cell metabolism is mediated by unknown humoral factors [Million et al., Am. J. Physiol. 261 (Regulatory Integrative Comp. Physiol. 30): R1188-R1196, 1991]. In the present investigation we have analyzed whether interindividual differences in egg size (which result in different surface area-to-mass ratios) affect the timing of initiation of 2,3-DPG and CAII synthesis in late chick embryos. We also investigated the effect of extracellular adenine nucleotides on red cell organic phosphate pattern and O2 affinity to test whether the inhibitory effect of normal or elevated PO2 on 2,3-DPG synthesis and the concomitant increase of ATP (and O2 half-saturation pressure) can be mimicked by these agents. The results show that differences in egg size affect the timing of CAII and 2,3-DPG synthesis, indicating that PO2-dependent regulation of red cell function allows adjustment to the properties of the individual egg. We also found that extracellular ATP, which is rapidly degraded to AMP by red cell ectoenzymes, can alter the red cell phosphate pattern and O2 affinity, i.e., significantly increase red cell ATP, decrease red cell 2,3-DPG and O2 affinity, and thus mimic the effect of normoxia and hyperoxia. These findings suggest that extracellular adenine nucleotides may be involved in the PO2-dependent regulation of embryonic red cell metabolism.
