Mitochondrial respiration, succinate dehydrogenase coenzyme Q reductase, and myosin B were investigated in ischemic myocardium from experimental myocardial infarction in dogs. Respiratory control ratio of mitochondria was impaired by ischemia at 60 min after coronary ligation, and oxygen consumption was inhibited 120 min later. Enzyme activity of succinate dehydrogenase coenzyme Q reductase was decreased at 6 hr after coronary ligation. Calcium ion sensitivity of myosin B declined 12 hr after coronary ligation. However, adenosine triphosphatase activity of myosin A from infarcted myocardium was not different from that of the intact one. These results suggest that interaction in the sequence of enzyme complexes was first impaired in ischemic myocardium and that deterioration of enzyme activity was then manifested.

Mild structural and functional changes were observed in liver and testes of rats after a single intraperitoneal administration of diazinon (21.6 mg/kg). Kidney, however, showed no pathological lesion. Attempts are made to correlate the pathological changes in these organs with the activity of succinic dehydrogenase, adenosine triphosphatase and alkaline phosphatase.

Ultrastructural and histochemical changes of skeletal muscle were studied in three patients affected with gas gangrene. There was complete lack of the phosphorylase, succinate dehydrogenase and adenosine triphosphatase activities in the affected muscles of all the patients. In unaffected muscles these enzymes showed weaker activities than in norm. The lactate dehydrogenase activity, especially the heart type isozyme (LDH-1 or H4) proved less sensitive to the effect of clostridial toxin. A general increase in the acid phosphatase activity was found both in affected and in unaffected muscles. On electron microscopic examination damage to sarcolemmal membrane and disintegration of myofilaments was seen. The mitochondria were swollen and their cristae distorted and fragmented.

In vitro alterations induced by a 10 micrograms/ml and 50 micrograms/ml dose each of thiophenate and fenbendazole on the absorptive surfaces of Haemonchus contortus (Nematoda: Trichostrongylidae) were studied. The most significant changes were induced in the gut epithelium. Alkaline phosphatase and adenosine triphosphatase activities were decreased, succinic dehydrogenase activity was increased, while acid phosphatase and glucose-6-phosphatase were completely lost from the intestinal epithelium after treatment with either of the drugs. A stimulatory effect of these two anthelmintics was observe on lactic dehydrogenase and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide diaphorase distribution. Thiophenate caused an increase in the activities of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) and nonspecific esterases and a decrease in reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate diaphorase (NADPH-D) activity. Fenbendazole treatment led to the inhibition of GDH, while G-6-PD, NADPH-D, cytochrome oxidase, monoamine oxidase and nonspecific esterase activity remained unaltered in the epithelium.

Histochemical activities of several enzymes were investigated in the olfactory epithelium (OE) and vomeronasal organ (VNO) of the golden hamster. Activities of adenosine triphosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase were intense in the OE, and the sensory (VSE) and respiratory epithelium (VRE) of the VNO. The activity of acid phosphatase was intense in both the OE and the VSE, while that of non-specific esterase was intense in the VSE alone. The activity of alkaline phosphatase was detectable only in the VRE. Activities of monoamine oxidase and acetylcholine esterase were negative in all of the OE, VSE and VRE. These similarities and differences in the histochemical distribution of enzymes between OE and VSE may reflect the common olfactory function and/or functional specialization in these epithelia. On the other hand, the VRE was considerably different from the OE and VSE in the enzymatic distribution. This may reflect the non-olfactory function of this epithelium.

The study of the behaviours of Trichinella spiralis in the host tissues from the histochemical point of view will throw a light on parallelism of the destruction process by the infection and the instruction of the host tissues, i.e., the catabolic effect of the parasite as an indicator of the severity of infection and the anabolic response by the host as a criteria of cure. So, this study revealed a definite increase in catabolic enzymes as acid phosphatase activities. A relative disturbance and a decrease of anabolic enzymes (succinate dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase, non-specific esterase and adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) reactivity which indicates the destructive effects of T. spiralis adult worms and encysted larvae on intestinal mucosa alpha striated muscles of tongue and diaphragm. The disturbances of anabolic enzymes activity revealed the continuous trials of the host to get rid of adult worms from the small intestine, and to defeat and isolate the larvae in striated muscles. While the renal tissue changes indicate the disturbance of absorption and excretion functions of renal tissue due to the presence of endmetabolites and products of the parasite in the host blood.

The fiber type composition of the soleus muscle was investigated in male Sprague-Dawley rats exposed to hypobaric hypoxia of 460 mm Hg from 5 to 12 weeks of age. The muscle fibers were classified as fast-twitch oxidative (FO) and slow-twitch (S) on the basis of adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) and succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) reactions. Intermediate fibers (INT) with intermediate ATPase and high SDH reaction intensities were also examined. A type shift of muscle fibers from FO to INT and S was found in the control group during development. After exposure to hypoxia, the hypoxia group had a significantly greater percentage of FO fibers than the age-matched control group. There was no significant change in the total number of fibers in the muscle during development and after exposure to hypoxia. These results indicate that the increased percentage of FO fibers found in the developing rat under hypoxic conditions is due to a hypoxia-induced inhibition of the type shift of muscle fibers from FO to S during development.

A strain of Japanese quail, SQOHM, is known as a model of idiopathic scoliosis in humans. It shows hereditary scoliotic deformities occurring in the cervical region. Histological, histochemical and serological studies were performed in 51 scoliotic and 109 non-scoliotic quail. Histological study revealed internal nuclei and tiny groups of small fibers in the neck muscles. The incidence of these, however, was only 19% in the scoliotic and 7% in the non-scoliotic quail. Histochemical observation with adenosine triphosphatase, phosphorylase and succinic dehydrogenase stains was made on the dorsal neck muscles. An increase in the number of beta-fibers, and a decrease in the number and hyperplasia of alpha-fibers were observed on the concave side of the scoliosis. The increase in number of beta-fibers on the concave side can play a role in promoting the deformity was suggested.

In vivo administration of testosterone significantly stimulated the activities of cytochrome oxidase, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (alpha-GPDH), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and adenosine triphosphatase (Mg2+ ATPase), in mitochondria isolated from the liver of G. carnosus. Administration of dehydroepiandrosterone and androstenedione while significantly stimulated the activities of cytochrome oxidase and alpha-GPDH, did not change that of SDH and Mg2+ ATPase. Simultaneous injections of testosterone and actinomycin D or chloramphenicol prevented the testosterone-stimulated activities of all the oxidative enzymes studied. The results clearly document the important stimulatory role of androgens in the regulation of hepatic mitochondrial metabolism in G. carnosus.

Wistar male rats were sacrificed at 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, and 21 days, and at 5 and 10 weeks of age. The histochemical differentiation of slow twitch soleus and fast twitch plantaris muscle fibers was examined from the enzyme activities of adenosine triphosphatase (slow- or fast-contracting), succinate dehydrogenase (high- or low-oxidative), and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (high- or low-glycolytic). The soleus muscle fibers differentiated into slow-contracting (S) and fast-contracting (F) fibers at 7 days of age. In the plantaris muscle, differentiation into S and F fibers in the deep portion occurred earlier (9 days) than in the superficial portion (11 days). Thereafter, fiber type shifts between S and F were observed in both muscles. Differentiation into fast-contracting oxidative glycolytic (FOG), fast-contracting glycolytic (FG), and slow-contracting oxidative (SO) fibers occurred in both muscles at 15 and 17 days of age. After subdivision into the three fiber types, a type shift from FOG to FG was observed in both the deep and superficial portions of the plantaris muscle.
