The physiological and histochemical effects of PGF2alpha on isolated rabbit hearts were examined. The results showed a positive inotropic effect. The coronary flow increased. From the histochemical studies, adenosine triphosphatase (ATP-ase) and succinic dehydrogenase activities were increased while that of alkaline phosphatase was decreased. Glycogen granules were depleted. These findings were discussed on a histophysiological basis.

In the normal and randomly reinnervated plantaris muscle of rat staining for succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) activity differentiates three fiber types (A, B and C), staining for myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) differentiates three fiber types (alpha, beta and alpha beta). Here we present our finding type A corresponds to alpha beta fibers, B to beta or alpha beta, C to alpha or alpha beta. In normal soleus muscle both classifications were found to be compatible and B fibers correspond to beta and C to alpha fibers. An exception is the small percent of alpha beta fibers which correspond to B type. In randomly reinnervated soleus muscle changes in ATPase activity are not followed by changes in SDH staining and B fibers correspond to alpha, beta or alpha beta types.

Suckling rats were exposed for 15 and 30 days to manganese through the milk of nursing dams receiving 15 mg MnCl2--4H2O/kg/day orally and after which the neurological manifestations of metal poisoning were studied. No significant differences in the growth rate, developmental landmarks and walking movements were observed between the control and manganese-exposed pups. The metal concentration was significantly increased in the brain of manganese-fed pups at 15 days and exhibited a further three-fold increase over the control, at 30 days. The accumulation of the metal in the brain of manganese-exposed nursing dams was comparatively much less. A significant decrease in succinic dehydrogenase, adenosine triphosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase, adenosine deaminase, acetylcholine esterase and an increase in monoamine oxidase activity was observed in the brain of experimental pups and dams. The results suggest that the developing brain may also be susceptible to manganese.

The cholerogenic effect produced in suckling rabbits by intraintestinal administration of a cholerogen was shown to be accompanied by the edema of villi, formation of lympho-histiocytic infiltrates in the stroma and bases of crypts, hemorrhages in the stroma of the villi and loss of individual enterocytes mostly on tops of the villi. In the large intestine, vacuolation and pyknosis of the epithelial nuclei and edema of the submucosa were observed. The intensity of the cholerogenic effect correlated with the degree of the decline of the activity of succinate dehydrogenase, adenosine triphosphatase, alkaline and acid phosphatases in the intestinal tract. Intraintestinal administration of heat-inactivated cholerogen induced no cholerogenic effect and the enzymatic activity in the intestinal tract declined focally and insignificantly.

Crossed immunoelectrophoresis of Triton X-100-solubilized plasma membranes of Micrococcus lysodeikticus established the presence of 27 discrete antigens. Individual antigens were identified as membrane components possessing enzyme activity by zymogram staining procedures and by reactivity of certain antigens with a selection of four lectins in the crossed-immunoelectrophoresis (immunoaffinoelectrophoresis) system. Absorption experiments with intact, stable protoplasts and isolated membranes established the asymmetric nature of the M. lysodeikticus plasma membranes. Of the 14 antigens with determinants accessible solely on the cytoplasmic face of the membrane, four possessed individual dehydrogenase activities, and a fifth was identifiable as a component possessing adenosine triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.3) activity. Evidence from absorption studies with isolated membranes suggested that antigens such as the adenosine triphosphatase complex were more readily accessible to reaction with antibodies than was succinate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.99.1), for example. Twelve antigens were located on the protoplast surface as determined by antibody absorption, and the succinylated lipomannan was identified as a major antigen. At least five other antigens possessed sugar residues that interacted with concanavalin A. With the antisera generated to isolated membranes, there was no evidence suggesting that any of these antigens was not detectable on either surface of the plasma membrane. From absorption experiments with washed, whole cells of M. lysodeikticus, it was concluded that the immunogens on the protoplast surface were also detectable on the surface of the intact cell. However, some of the components such as the succinylated lipomannan appeared to be exposed to a greater extent than others. The cytoplasmic fraction from M. lysodeikticus was used as an antigen source to generate antibodies, and 97 immunoprecipitates were resolvable by crossed immunoelectrophoresis. In the cytoplasm-anticytoplasm reference immunoelectrophoresis pattern of precipitates, three of the immunoprecipitates unique to the cytoplasmic fraction were identifiable by zymogram staining procedures as catalase (EC 1.11.1.6), isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42), and polynucleotide phosphorylase (EC 2.3.7.8). The identification of membrane and cytoplasmic antigens (including the above-mentioned enzymes) provides a sensitive analytical system for monitoring cross-contamination and antigen distribution in cellular fractions.

Male guinea pigs were exposed to nitrogen dioxide (2 mg/m3) during 180 days (8 hours a day). Long-term exposure induced thickening of the corneal layer of the epidermis as well as inflammatory infiltrations in the proper skin. The following enzymes were estimated histochemically in skin samples of experimental and control animals: succinic dehydrogenase, NADH2-tetrazolium reductase, lactate dehydrogenase; alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase and adenosine triphosphatase. Chronic exposrue stimulated a decrease of NADH2-tetrazolium reductase in the epidermis and connective tissue components of proper skin and marked positive reaction of lactate dehydrogenase in epidermal cells and hair follicles. Increase of a diffuse reaction on adenosine triphosphatase in smooth muscles of the skin was found also in exposed animals.

Changes in succinic dehydrogenase, adenosine triphosphatase, and phosphorylase activities occurred in masseter muscle by 15 minutes following injection of 2% lidocaine. Abolishment of phosphorylase activity suggested an effect on the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Increased staining for succinic dehydrogenase and adenosine triphosphatase activities suggested damage to mitochondria and myofibrils, respectively. Leucine aminopeptidase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities appeared in macrophages.

It is not known whether cellular adaptations of the ventilatory muscles are induced by increased respiratory loads. A chronic respiratory load was produced in rats by tracheal banding. Five weeks after the imposition of this increased load, biochemical and histochemical analyses were performed on the diaphragm and intercostal muscles. The oxidative capacity, as indicated by succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activity, increased 38% in the diaphragm. The capacity for beta-oxidation fatty acids, as indicated by 3-hydroxy-acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (HADH) activity, increased 29%. The glycolytic capacity, as indicated by phosphofructokinase (PFK) activity, did not change. Similar enzymatic adaptations were observed in the intercostal muscles. The proportion of slow-twitch muscle fibers, as indicated by the myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) stain, increased in the diaphragm, but not in the intercostal muscles. Thus, these ventilatory muscles responded with an increase in their oxidative capacity, and the diaphragm reponded with an increase in the proportion of muscle fibers having the myofibriller ATPase staining characteristic of slow-twich fibers. We conclude that cellular adaptations are induced in the ventilatory muscles by chronic increased respiratory loads.

EEG registered hippocampal status epilepticus (HSE) was provoked in 41 adult albino rats by intraseptal injection of ouabain, and the hippocampus was studied from 1 1/2 to 24 hr with the enzyme histochemical tests for succinic dehydrogenase (SDH), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), thiaminopyrophosphatase (TPPase), acid phosphatase (AcPase), Mg2+ adenosine triphosphatase (Mg2++ ATPase), and with general and neurohistological stains. In a first group of animals (1 1/2 to 10 hr of HSE), a stage of general increase in enzymatic activity was detected in the pyramidal neurons (SDH, LDH, AcPase, and TPPase). Mg2+ ATPase showed a marked increase in astrocytes. In a second group (more than 10 hr of HSE), SDH was found decreased in the dendritic fields. LDH activity persisted in neuronal bodies, and AcPase and TPPase showed diffuse activity in the cytoplasm of some pyramidal neurons. In a third group (more than 18 hr of HSE), SDH activity was low. No AcPase granules were observed in some pyramidal neurons and TPPase was negative in some areas of pyramidal layer. Mg2+ ATPase reaction showed scare and retracted astroglial processes. These changes were coincident with "cellular ghosts" observed with hematoxylin-eosin techniques of the same samples in the pyramidal field and were interpreted as cellular death, attributed to relative anoxia following neuronal discharge.

The administration of trivalent and hexavalent chromium compounds produced inhibition of the activity of succinic dehydrogenase, adenosine triphosphatase and acid phosphattase accompanied by cellular degeneration with complete absence of spermatocytes in the testis of rabbits. The biochemical and histological changes were more marked in the animals treated with the trivalent chromium than those exposed to hexavalent chromium and were progressive with the duration of exposure.
