[Changes in lactate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity in the course of muscle alteration]. 1978

V I Stabrovskaia, and A D Braun

Changes of outflux, extractability and activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDG) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6PhDG) of muscles under the action of heating (at 32--44 degrees for 15 min) and urea (1 M during 10 min, 30 min, 2 hr. and 9 hr.) on the skeletal muscles of R. temporaria L. were studied. Under the thermal action not accompanied by contracture and fall of the excitability (32--36 degrees), the increase of outflux of LDG out of muscles into surrounding solutions is observed. G-6-PhDG in the external medium under any heating action was not revealed. Extractibility of LDG and G-6-PhDG did not change. Under the thermal action accompanied by the fall of excitability and by the contracture, along with the prolong increase of outflux of LDG, a decrease of extractability of LDG takes place. The decrease of G-6-PhDG is set at 42 degrees. Under the alteration of muscles by urea in the period of the temporary fall of excitability and contracture (10 and 30 min) an increase of the outflux of LDG out of muscles is observed. G-6PhDG in the surrounding medium was not revealed up to 9 hr. of incubation of muscle. In the period of the recovery of the excitability and relaxation of muscles (2hr.) the outflux of LDG approaches the control level. During the temporary loss and recovery of excitability, the extractability of LDG and G-6-PhDG does not change. In the period of irreversible contracture and loss of the excitability (6--10 hr.) a sharp increase of outflux of LDG out of muscles takes place. The extractability of the examined enzymes, especially of LDG, decreases.

D001001 Anura An order of the class Amphibia, which includes several families of frogs and toads. They are characterized by well developed hind limbs adapted for jumping, fused head and trunk and webbed toes. The term "toad" is ambiguous and is properly applied only to the family Bufonidae.
