[Changes in organelle-specific enzyme activity and the ultrastructure of liver cells in cholelithiasis]. 1977

Activities of organelle specific enzymes (succinate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphatase, acidic DNAase, acidic RNAase, acidic and alkaline phosphatases) were measured in homogenates and subcellular fractions of liver tissue of patients with cholelithic disease. Liver tissue samples analyzed were investigated also by light and electron microscopy. The data obtained were considered in connection with localization of cholelith in biliary system, type of inflammation, presence of subhepatic cholestasis and of accompanying syndrome of pancreatitis. Typical alterations were observed in the activity of organelle specific enzymes and in the ultrastructure of mitochindria, lysosomes and endoplasmic reticulum in cholelithic disease. The most distinct alterations in the enzymatic activities were found in choledocholithiasis as well as in subhepatic jaundice.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007565 Jaundice A clinical manifestation of HYPERBILIRUBINEMIA, characterized by the yellowish staining of the SKIN; MUCOUS MEMBRANE; and SCLERA. Clinical jaundice usually is a sign of LIVER dysfunction. Icterus,Jaundice, Hemolytic,Hemolytic Jaundice,Hemolytic Jaundices,Jaundices, Hemolytic
D008099 Liver A large lobed glandular organ in the abdomen of vertebrates that is responsible for detoxification, metabolism, synthesis and storage of various substances. Livers
D008247 Lysosomes A class of morphologically heterogeneous cytoplasmic particles in animal and plant tissues characterized by their content of hydrolytic enzymes and the structure-linked latency of these enzymes. The intracellular functions of lysosomes depend on their lytic potential. The single unit membrane of the lysosome acts as a barrier between the enzymes enclosed in the lysosome and the external substrate. The activity of the enzymes contained in lysosomes is limited or nil unless the vesicle in which they are enclosed is ruptured or undergoes MEMBRANE FUSION.

D008297 Male Males
D008862 Microsomes, Liver Closed vesicles of fragmented endoplasmic reticulum created when liver cells or tissue are disrupted by homogenization. They may be smooth or rough. Liver Microsomes,Liver Microsome,Microsome, Liver
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D008930 Mitochondria, Liver Mitochondria in hepatocytes. As in all mitochondria, there are an outer membrane and an inner membrane, together creating two separate mitochondrial compartments: the internal matrix space and a much narrower intermembrane space. In the liver mitochondrion, an estimated 67% of the total mitochondrial proteins is located in the matrix.

D010195 Pancreatitis INFLAMMATION of the PANCREAS. Pancreatitis is classified as acute unless there are computed tomographic or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatographic findings of CHRONIC PANCREATITIS (International Symposium on Acute Pancreatitis, Atlanta, 1992). The two most common forms of acute pancreatitis are ALCOHOLIC PANCREATITIS and gallstone pancreatitis.
