Acute renal failure was induced in rats by injection of a lethal dose of live Escherichia coli. Enzyme activities of the proximal tubule were studied histochemically at three, six, and 12 hours following E coli injection. The enzymes examined were alkaline phosphatase (A1Pase), acid phosphatase (AcPase), adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase), and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH). At three hours, ATPase activity was slightly decreased, while other enzymes showed no changes in activities at this time. At six hours, a slight increase in AcPase activity was seen in the pars recta. At this time, although A1Pase showed no change in activity, other enzymes revealed slight decreases in activities: G6Pase and SDH in the pars convoluta, ATPase in the pars convoluta and pars recta, and G6PDH in pars recta. At 12 hours after treatment, all enzymes showed decreases in activities; however, no necrotic tubule changes were detectable by light microscopy. Since sodium reabsorption in proximal tubules requires a sodium pump consisting of Na-K ATPase, early histochemical changes in ATPase activity in proximal tubule following bacteremia may be related to early changes in sodium reabsorption causing polyuria and to the subsequent development of acute renal failure.

Acute sodium fluoride toxicity was studied histologically and histochemically in the rat kidney. The doses given subcutaneously by a single injection were 10, 12.5 and 15 mg/100 gm of body weight and the duration after the administration were 30 minutes, and one, 3, 5 and 7 days. Histologically, coagulation necrosis of the proximal tubules was found at 1 day and the injury was most striking at 3 days. Regeneration was almost complete at 7 days. Among the enzymes studied, e.g., alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase, adenosine triphosphatase and succinic dehydrogenase, and acid phosphatase of the tubular epithelium was the most severely impaired.

A total of 19 cases with bone tumors, including six osteosarcomas. three giant cell tumors of bone, one malignant fibrous histiocytoma, four nonossifying fibromas, four chondromas and one chondrosarcoma, were examined as to enzyme histochemistry; the enzymes consisted of alkaline phosphatase (ALPase), acid phosphatase (ACPase), nonspecific esterase (NSE), adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), 5'-nucleotidase (5'-Nucl) and beta-glucuronidase (beta-Gl). Osteosarcoma was strongly positive for ALPase followed by 5'-Nucl. Giant cell tumor, malignant fibrous histiocytoma and nonossifying fibroma showed enzyme histochemistry similar to each other: multinucleated giant cells and round cells in these tumors were strongly positive for ACPase, NSE, ATPase and 5'-Nucl simulating osteoclasts and histiocytes, whereas spindle cells were positive for ATPase and 5'-Nucl in their cytoplasm and weakly positive for ACPase. Chondroma and chondrosarcoma were focally positive for ACPase and NSE; the ACPase was sensitive to tartaric acid treatment. These observations showed that ALPase activity is very characteristic to osteosarcoma, and is useful for its diagnosis. From enzyme histochemistry, giant cell tumor, malignant fibrous histiocytoma and nonossifying fibroma can be regarded as a histiocyte-derived tumor of bone in contrast to osteosarcoma and cartilaginous tumors.

A typical case of biphasic synovial sarcoma was studied using enzyme histochemistry. A marked difference between the staining characteristics of the spindle cells and the epithelial-like cells was demonstrated by reactions for various hydrolytic enzymes. The epithelial-like cells exhibited a strong reactivity for alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase and nonspecific esterase, whereas spindle-cells were completely unreactive when tested for these enzymes. This is, to our knowledge, the first report demonstrating differences in the enzymatic pattern of the two cell populations which compose synovial sarcoma.

Rats exposed to cosmetic kerosene mists (odourless kerosene), concentration of 75 and 300 mg/m3 for 14 days, underwent morphological and cytoenzymatic liver tests and biochemical tests of lipids composition in this organ. In addition, lipids concentration and activity of test--enzymes in blood serum were determined. The findings were: passive congestion, fine--droplet fatty degeneration in I zones of clusters and increased number of Browicz--Kupffer's phagocytes near liver triads. Those changes were accompanied by: decreased activity of succinic dehydrogenese (SDH), tetrazolic NADPH--reductase (NADPH-r.t.) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-P-ase) and increased activity of adenosine triphosphatase (Mg++-ATP-ase) and acid phosphatase (AcP). In blood serum medium increase of base phosphatase (AP), 5-nucleotidase (5-Nt) and leucyloaminepeptidase (LAP) and decreased activity of prothrombin (Pt) were found. In addition, it was demonstrated that liver steatosis was characterized by cumulation of free fatty acids, phospholipids and cholesterol esters with simultaneous decrease in triglycerides content in this organ. The obtained results indicate that changes induced by kerosene hydrocarbons in liver are focal and cumulate in I zones of liver clusters. The degree of lesion varies with the extent of exposure, and results from toxic effects of this preparation on hepatic cells lypoproteid membranes.

HLA-DR-positive histiocytes in the lamina propria of the human intestine have been characterised using combined histochemical and immunohistological techniques. In the small intestine, 80-90% of the HLA-DR+ histiocytes had irregular surfaces with stellate processes, and exhibited strong membrane adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity, but weak acid phosphatase (ACP) and non-specific esterase (NSE) activities (HLA-DR+ ACP+/- NSA+/- ATP++; type 1 cell). In contrast, in the lamina propria of the colon the majority (60-70%) of HLA-DR+ cells were large, round cells with strong ACP and NSE activities but no detectable ATPase activity (HLA-DR+ ACP++ NSE++ ATP+/-; type 2 cell). The colon also contained a population of type 1 cells (30-40%). In active inflammatory bowel disease affecting the colon a third population of HLA-DR+ histiocytes was seen. These cells were irregular in outline, with many processes, and were ACP++ NSE+ ATP+/- (type 3 cell). The type 3 cells appeared to replace type 2 cells. After treatment, the appearances returned to normal. These findings suggest that the different populations of HLA-DR+ histiocytes in the human intestine may have several functions, reflecting the different forms of antigen present in the intestine. The alterations in inflammatory bowel disease may represent activation in response to an invading antigen.

The authors subjected peripheral blood smears of Torpedoes to cytochemical analysis of lipids, protein, neutral and acid polysaccahrides and of some enzymatic activities, i.e. adenosine triphosphatase (ATP-ase), acid and alkaline phosphatase, aliesterase and peroxidase. It was found that neutrophilic granulocytes are intensely PAS and aliesterase positive and weakly ATP-ase positive. Eosinophilic granulocytes show the presence of neutral polysaccharides in the matrix (which is PAS positive) and strong ATP-ase and acid phosphatase activities in the granules. Lymphocytes sometimes contain weakly PAS and aliesterase positive granules. Monocytes show some small PAS positive granules and weak acid phosphatase and aliesterase activities. Thrombocytes contain some peripheral granules which are PAS positive and slightly ATP-ase positive. There are no transitional forms between the various cellular types. The results confirm the classification of leukocytes of Torpedoes into neutrophilic granulocytes, eosinophilic granulocytes, lymphocytes, monocytes and thrombocytes and contribute some informations about the histoenzymatic content of Elasmobranch leukocytes.

The histochemical demonstration of acid phosphatase (ACP) and adenosine triphosphatase (ATP) has been combined with standard immunofluorescence techniques, using a panel of monoclonal and conventional antibodies, to examine lymphocyte and macrophage subsets and their microanatomical relationships within the subcutaneous rheumatoid nodule (RN). This analysis reveals that the RN is composed largely of strongly HLA-DR+, ATP- macrophages which contain lysosomal enzymes (ACP) in large amounts. The lymphocytic infiltrate which is sparse and poorly organized is comprised almost entirely of thymus derived lymphocytes (T cells) with a normal proportion of helper/inducer (OKT4+) and suppressor/cytotoxic (OKT8+) cells. These observations are in contrast to the findings in the rheumatoid synovial membrane of a prevalence of interdigitating type, HLA-DR+ cells and the predominance of helper (OKT4+) type T cells.

The proliferating cell in histiocytosis X has been thought to be an abnormal Langerhans cell since the identification in 1965 of the characteristic X-bodies morphologically identical to the Birbeck granules of epidermal Langerhans cells. This conclusion is based primarily on this finding and on morphologic similarities at the light microscopic level. Enzyme histochemical data have been somewhat conflicting and have not provided strong support for this conclusion. Recently, immunohistochemical studies have shown data consistent with a Langerhans cell origin for histiocytosis X cells. This study documents the presence of nonspecific esterase, acid phosphatase, and adenosine triphosphatase in both Langerhans cells and histiocytosis X cells. Both types of cells also react with antibodies directed against widely distributed leukocyte antigens (HLA-A,B,C; Ia; L3B12); Langerhans cell/thymocyte antigen [Leu 6(T6)]; histiocyte antigen (Leu-M3); helper T-cell/histiocyte antigen [Leu-3(T4)]; and S-100 protein. These results complement earlier immunologic studies and add enzyme histochemical data that strongly support the concept of histiocytosis X as a proliferative disorder of cells of Langerhans lineage.

In porcine interareolar placental epithelia, the following enzymes were demonstrated by histochemical methods after 30, 58, 80, 100, and 110 d of pregnancy, respectively: beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase, beta-galactosidase, beta-glucuronidase, alpha-mannosidase, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, nonspecific 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 most of the enzyme activities remained almost unchanged during the period of investigation. Only G-6-PDH and 6-PGDH activities increased within the uterine epithelium and nonspecific esterase activity within uterine as well as chorionic epithelia during the 2nd half of pregnancy. Within chorionic and uterine epithelia, hydrolases but not dehydrogenases demonstrated a higher activity at the bases of chorionic villi as compared to the apices and flanks of the latter. The action and influence of the demonstrated enzymes on metabolism, energy transfer, secretory, and resorptive activities of chorionic and uterine epithelia are discussed.
