THE ACTIVITY OF SOME ENZYMES AS A MARKER OF MEMBRANE INJURY UPON THE FREEZING OF ISOLATED MITOCHONDRIA.

Author(s) : IVANOV N., et al.

Summary

MITOCHONDRIA ISOLATED FROM THE LIVER OF MALE WISTAR RATS WERE FROZEN IN 0. 25 M SUCROSE AT 263 K (-10 C) AND KEPT AT THIS TEMPERATURE FOR 30 MIN. AFTER THAWING THE MITOCHONDRIA, THE ACTIVITY WAS STUDIED OF THE ENZYMES FIRMLY LINKED WITH THE MITOCHONDRIAL MEMBRANE, CYTOCHROME OXIDASE, NADH-CYTOCHROME-C-REDUCTASE AND SUCCINATE-DEHYDROGENASE, AND ALSO OF THE SOLUBLE MATRIX ENZYMES, MALATE DEHYDROGENASE AND GLUTAMATE DEHYDROGENASE. THE FREEZING OF ISOLATED MITOCHONDRIA RESULTS IN A RELIABLE DECREASE IN SUCCINATE DEHYDROGENASE ACTIVITY.
