    Notes: Quantitative cytochemistry of components of blood neutrophil azurophilic granules (myeloperoxidase, chloroacetate esterase, β-glucuronidase, and acid phosphatase) and specific granules (lactoferrin) has been performed by scanning and integrating micro-densitometry in 13 patients with a myelodysplastic syndrome and 11 patients with chronic granulocytic leukaemia. Both patient groups showed a reduction of enzyme activity in azurophilic granules, and also of lactoferrin, consistent with abnormal development of neutrophil granules. These cytochemical changes in blood neutrophils are similar to those found in acute myeloid leukaemia, are consistent with a leukaemic maturation defect, and may be of diagnostic value.

    Notes: The naturally-occurring polyamines exist in the free form, as N-acetyl derivatives and bound to protein. Their biosynthesis is subject to sensitive control, particularly of ornithine decarboxylase. This enzyme may be multifunctional and a key regulatory protein. Studies, principally with selective inhibitors, have elucidated the roles of polyamines in cell proliferation. Oxidized polyamines, in contrast, can be potent mitotic inhibitors. These effects are reviewed in terms of their chemistry and biochemistry. Their principal distinctions are that they can be made or degraded intracellularly, they can associate electrostatically with macromolecules by means of their spaced cationic groups, and these can be readily converted to covalent bonds.

    Notes: The study of the influence of the age of the animals (13 to 53 weeks) on the rate of ethanol metabolism in vivo and the total activity of liver alcohol dehydrogenase and microsomal ethanol oxidizing system showed a progressive decline with age. These effects were observed concomitantly with a diminution in the content of cytochrome P-450 and microsomal functions related to oxidative and free-radical mediated reactions, namely, NADPH oxidase activity, NADPH-dependent oxygen uptake and NADPH-or t-butyl hydroperoxide-induced chemiluminescence. It is concluded that ageing is accompanied by a diminution in the total oxidative activity of the liver tissue, which would explain the depression in basal and ethanol-induced lipid peroxidation found in the oldest group of rats studied.

    Notes: The apparent paradox of aerobic glycolysis has been investigated in bone and in cartilage. A new cytochemical procedure for hydroxyacyl dehydrogenase (HOAD) activity showed that the maximal activity of this enzyme in both tissues was equivalent to the maximal activity of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPD). The sum of these activities gave a measure of the maximum amount of acetyl-coenzyme A that could be produced. In these tissues, but not in liver which does not exhibit aerobic glycolysis, this summed value exceeded the maximal activity of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). Consequently, it suggested that where fatty acid oxidation is sufficient to supply all the acetyl-coenzyme A required for the Krebs' cycle, that derived from fatty acid oxidation may inhibit pyruvate dehydrogenase causing accumulation of pyruvate which must be converted to lactate if pentose-shunt activity is to be maintained.

    Notes: Luteal and interstial cell RNA contents and circulating progesterone (P) and 20α-hydroxypregn-4-ene-3-one (20α-OH P) levels were measured during pseudopregnancy in order to characterize relationships between ovarian 20α-OH P secretion and luteal regression. Functional luteolysis, as manifested in depressed P levels, was not associated with concurrent elevations in 20α-OH P. Rather, augmented 20α-OH P levels were evidenced in periovulatory periods at the onset and termination of pseudopregnancy, subsequent to RNA accumulation in both luteal and interstitial compartments. It is postulated that 20α-OH P, the putative inactive metabolite of P, is produced by both ovarian compartments in a cyclic manner and in response to gonadotrophin released in the preovulatory period.

    Notes: The effects of diterpene forskolin on the human platelet release reaction and on platelet protein phosphorylation were studied. This drug is shown to have the same effects as other agents which increase cAMP levels, namely, it inhibits the secretory response to diverse agonists and causes changes in the phosphorylation of several specific proteins. An increase of the 32P content is seen in the MW 47 000, 24 000 and 21 000 polypeptides while a decrease is observed in the MW 41 000 and 27 000 and 20 000 species. Forskolin also inhibits the changes in protein phosphorylation pattern induced by the powerful platelet secretagogue, thrombin. Our results relate the effects of antagonists of platelet secretion such as prostaglandins more closely to changes in cAMP levels and in protein phosphorylation than to other possible effects of the receptor-ligand interaction, which is by-passed by the use of forskolin. Our results also provide additional evidence involving these changes in the mechanisms which regulate the secretory process in platelets.

    Notes: Pi depletion of proximal tubule cells isolated from mouse kidney results in a decrease in the cell content of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate and an increase in the rate of gluconeogenesis from pyruvate, malate and succinate. Gluconeogenesis from glycerol is unaffected by Pi depletion. Introduction of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate into the cytosol of ATP-permeabilized cells is accompanied by a fall in gluconeogenesis.The presence of external Ca2+ stimulates gluconeogenesis. When cytosolic Ca2+ is raised to 1·8 μM by permeabilization, the resealed cells still require 2·5 mM Ca2+ in the bathing medium in order to perform gluconeogenesis at the maximum rate. Cells permeabilized in the presence of cAMP show a decreased rate of glucose production. Phorbol ester stimulates gluconeogenesis provided that the phorbol treatment is performed in the absence of Ca2+ ions.It is suggested that Pi depletion may stimulate pyruvate carboxylase activity and facilitate the entry of certain gluconeogenic substrates into mitochondria. It is also proposed that important aspects of the control of renal gluconeogenesis by parathyroid hormone are mediated by protein kinase C.

    Notes: Fructose-1, 6-diphosphate (FDP) decreases the effect of ethanol on Ca++ entry and inhibits the ethanol-stimulated phosphate efflux in rat heart slices. FDP also inhibits the ethanol-stimulated [36Cl-]-uptake by rat brain microvesicles and affects the isolated GABA-receptor in a way opposite to that of ethanol. The in vivo effects of FDP include a dose-dependent decrease in ethanol-induced gastric ulcers and a decrease in the serum transaminase levels raised by chronic ethanol administration. Other central actions of ethanol such as diuresis, narcosis, dependence and withdrawal symptoms are also counteracted by FDP.
