The virus of transmissible gastroenteritis produced sprue-like lesions in the small intestines of young pigs. These lesions were characterized by villous shortening, fusing and blunting in the jejunum and ileum. There was decreased height of the brush border and morphologic alteration of the villous epithelial cells from simple columnar to a variable cuboidal type. Accompanying these microscopic lesions were histochemical changes characterized by decreased staining intensity of acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase, leucine aminopeptidase, succinic dehydrogenase and malic dehydrogenase in the affected intestinal mucosa. The clinical nature of transmissible gastroenteritis in the pig together with the histopathologic and histochemical changes may provide a useful experimental model for obtaining additional basic information on enteric disturbances.

1. A technique is described for the removal of subcellular contaminants from intact rat intestinal brush borders, and for the subsequent separation of a microvillus membrane fraction from a fibrillar residue. 2. Increments in invertase activity, microscopic homogeneity and low nucleic acid content indicate that the microvillus plasma membrane has been extensively purified. Multiple membrane preparations have been shown to be highly reproducible with respect to their invertase specific activity, cholesterol content and phospholipid content. Alkaline phosphatase, leucine aminopeptidase, Mg(2+)- and Ca(2+)-dependent adenosine triphosphatase and seven separate disaccharidases were shown to be predominantly confined to the membrane fraction. 3. The fibrillar fraction has been shown to contain approximately 30% of the total protein of purified brush borders, plus most of the residual nucleic acid contaminant. No evidence was found for the localization of any specific enzyme in this fraction.

Preparations of isolated brush border plasma membrane of Hymenolepis diminuta and H. microstoma possess the following enzymatic activities: alkaline phosphohydrolase (E.C. 3.1.3.1); Type I phosphodiesterase (E.E. 3.1.4.1); ribonuclease (E.C. 3.1.4.22); adenosine triphosphatase (E.C. 3.6.1.3); and 5'-nucleotidase (E.C. 3.1.3.5). The following enzymatic activities could not be demonstrated in either membrane preparation: Type II phosphodiesterase (E.C. 3.1.4.18); cyclic adenosine-3', 5'-monophosphate phosphodiesterase (E.C. 3.1.4.17); leucine aminopeptidase (E.C. 3.4.11.1); maltase (alpha-glucosidase; E.C. 3.2.1.20); and lactase (beta-galactosidase; E.C. 3.2.1.23). These data generally agree with those of previous studies in which similar membrane-bound enzymes were demonstrated in intact (living) worms.

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.

In this study, an attempt has been made to compare the most common species of tapeworms in carp: non-segmentary Khawia sinensis and segmentary Bothriocephalus acheilognathi on the basis of histoenzymatic examination of 8 enzymes, i.e. alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase, nonspecific esterase alfa, succinic dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, leucine aminopeptidase and gamma-glutamylo transferase.
