  • Various tissue and follicular components were analyzed for the determination of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) isozyme patterns by electrophoretic technique with chromogen reaction in the pig. Optimum conditions for the tissue homogenate and the storage were finally established. Small quantities of follicular components were analysed for typing of LDH isozymes by microelectrophoresis. Microelectrophoretic analysis showed that only LDH-1 was visible in the oocytes, all isozymes in cumulus masses, and LDH-1, 2 and 3 in follicular fluid. The results provide critical information on the LDH activity of various tissues and follicular components. Furthermore, t he developed methods should be useful the analysis of LDH in the small quantity of samples, especially in the oocyte, and easily applicable to the oocyte and early embryos of other domestic species.

  • In order to identify the morphological changes of tissues in mouse after irradiation. We have observed the redistribution of LDH isozymes and the morphological changes of skeletal muscle, heart, kidney, liver and testis in mouse according to variation amount with the time after the 1 Gray and 3 Gray irradiation each. As a result of H-E (hematoxylin-eosin) stain, the apoptotic bodies were more easily observed in the liver than the other tissues and the quantity of the apoptotic bodies was proportionated to radiation amount. The number of apoptotic bodies was shown the highest at 1 day in most tissues and at 7 day in testis after irradiation. TUNEL (terminal deoxyribonucleodtidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-digoxigenin nick end labeling) staining was shown the same results as H-E staining. After the irradiation, the protein content was reduced in tissues except kidney. And protein content was reduced in all tissues at the initial period of 2 hours after 3 Gy irradiation. But it increased at 7 days after irradiation. LDH (EC 1.1.1.27, lactate dehydrogenase) activity was increased mostly in tissues at the early stage after 1 Gy irradiation. The maximum activity was detected earlier stage after 1 Gy irradiation than 3 Gy irradiation. The activity of LDH $A_4$ isozyme was decreased in the skeletal muscle, heart, kidney, and testis. The activity of $B_4$ and $A_2$$B_2$ sozyme was increased in the skeletal muscle and heart, and the activity of heterotetramer isozyme was increased in kidney The activity of $A_4$ isozyme in liver was detected high level and the activity of isozyme including subunit C elevated in testis. Therefore, LDH isozyme seems to play a role of lactate oxidase in most tissues except liver after irradiation. These data support that LDH isozyme is predomintly involved in the aerobic metabolism.

  • To confirm the function of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (EC 1.1.1.27, LDH), its metabolism was studied by activity, kinetics, and isozyme analysis in tissues of Ldh testis-specific C expressing mice (Mus musculus) maintained in a state of starvation for 48 hr and 96 hr. In skeletal muscle, liver, and eye tissues, LDH and LDH $A_4$ activity increased and anaerobic metabolism predominated. While LDH activity in the heart and kidney tissues decreased, LDH $B_4$ activity increased and aerobic metabolism predominated, producing pyruvic acid. In the testis tissue, LDH $C_4$ activity decreased. In the brain tissue, LDH activity increased, but the isozyme change was small and the amount of pyruvic acid decreased. $K{_m}^{PYR}$ increased in tissues other than kidney tissue, and the affinity for pyruvic acid decreased. Consequently, in Ldh-A and B-expressing tissues, the activities of isozymes with higher concentrations increased. However, in Ldh-A, B, and C-expressing tissue, $C_4$ decreased and the function of the tissue also decreased. In particular, LDH in brain tissue played a role as a pyruvate reductase. Therefore, this process might be the mechanism for producing energy in the state of starvation.

  • The lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27, LDH) isozymes in tissues from Channa argus were purified and characterized by biochemical, immunochemical and kinetic methods. The activity of LDH in skeletal muscle was the highest at 380.4 units and those in heart, eye and brain tissues were 13.4, 3,5 and 5.4 units, respectively. Citrate synthase (EC 4.1.3.7, CS) activity in heart tissue was the highest at 20.7 units. LDH/CS in skeletal muscle, heart, eye and brain tissues were 172.9, 0.6, 0.32 and 0.47. Protein concentration in skeletal muscle tissue was 14.7 mg/g and specific activities of LDH in skeletal muscle, heart, eye and brain tissues were 25.88, 0.79, 0.31 and 1.38 units/mg, respectively. Therefore, skeletal muscle tissue was anaerobic and heart tissue was aerobic. The LDH isozymes in tissues were identified by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, immunoprecipitation and Western blot with antiserum against $A_4$, $B_4$, and eye-specific $C_4$. LDH $A_4$, $A_3B$, $A_2B_2$. $AB_3$ and $B_4$ isozymes were detected in every tissue, $C_4$, $AC_3$, $A_2C_2$ and $A_3C$ were detected in eye tissue, and $A_3C$ was found in brain tissue. LDH $A_4$, $A_3B$, $A_2B_2$, $AB_3$, $B_4$, eye-specific $C_4$ isozymes were purified by affinity chromatography and Preparative PAGE Cells. The LDH $A_4$ isozyme was purified in the fraction from elution with $NAD^+$ containing buffer of affinity chromatography. Eye-specific $C_4$ isozyme was eluted right after $A_4$, after which $B_4$ isozyme was eluted with plain buffer. As a result, one part of molecular structures in $A_4$, $B_4$ and eye-specific $C_4$ were similar, but were different from each other in $B_4$ and $C_4$. Therefore the subunit A may be conservative in evolution, and the evolution of subunit B seems to be faster than that of subunit A. The activity of LDH $A_4$, $A_2B_2$, $B_4$, and eye-specific $C_4$ isozymes remained at 39.98, 21.28, 19.67 and 16.87% as a result of the inhibition by 10 mM of pyruvate, so the degree of inhibition was very high. The $Km^{PYR}$ values were 0.17, 0.27 and 0.133 mM in $A_4$, $B_4$ and eye-specific $C_4$ isozymes, respectively. The optimum pH of LDH $A_4$, $B_4$, eye-specific $C_4$, $A_2B_2$, $A_3B$, and $AB_3$ were pH 6.5, pH 8.5, pH 5.5, pH 6.0-6.5, pH 5.0 and pH 7.5. The $A_4$ and heterotetramer isozymes stabilized a broad range of pH. Especially, LDH activities in skeletal muscle tissue were high, resulting in a high degree of muscle activity.LDH metabolism in eye tissue seems to be converted faster from pyruvate to lactate by eye-specific $C_4$ isozyme as eye-specific $C_4$ have the highest affinity for pyruvate, and right after the conversion, oxidation of lactate was induced by $A_4$ isozyme. It was found that expression of Ldh-C, affinity to substrate and reaction time of $C_4$ isozyme were different according to the ecological environmental and feeding capturing patterns.

  • Two sibling species of the genus Platycephalus collected from the South and West Sea of Korea were reviewed based on the several meristic and morphological characters, electrophoresis of muscle protein, and LDH and MDH isozyme. Counts and morphometric characters of Platycephalus indicus were different from those of Platycephalus sp. by having 18~20 pectoral fin rays (16~19 in Platycephalus sp.), 70~80 scales of lateral line (83~100), 10.2~13.1% eye diameter (10.9~15.5%), 14.5~18.1% interorbital width (11.8~17.8%), dark brown of body color (light brown) and dark brown of pectoral and ventral fin outside (light brown and pale). The number of soluble protein bands in muscle separated by polyacrylamidegel electrophoresis was 16 and 18 from P. indicus and Platycephalus sp, respectively, and each bands showed their characteristics in activated degree. The number of bands separated from LDH isozyme were 2 and 1 in P. indicus and Platycephalus sp. and in the case of MDH isozyme, 5 and 4 bands, respectively. So we were thought that P. indicus and Platycephalus sp. from Korea were different species each other.

  • The activities of serum of serum lactate dehydrogenase (SLDH), serum alkaline phosphatase (SALP), serum creatine phosphokinase (SCPK), and their isozymes were determined in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats acclimated to cold environment $(4\\pm1^\\circC)$ for 36 days. The SLDH activity was significantly higher in the early stage of acclimated period. The steady state of SLDH activity seemed to be reached by the end of acclimated period. Electrophoretic separation of serum of control rat showed three SLDH isozymes. Isozymes SLDH4 and SLDH5 appeared most prominently, whereas only trace of SLDH1 or SLDH2 was found. The increase in SLDH level during acclimation to cold environment is a reflection of an immediate increase in the SLDH1, SLDH2, and SLDH3 type of SLDH isozyme. The acclimation to cold environment increased significantly level of SALP in the early state of acclimated period. SALP activity showed a attaining steady state with the resting level after transient rise. Electrophoretic separation of SALP of control rats showed the SALP1 and SALP2 fractions. The transient rise in SALP activity of rats acclimated to cold environment coincided with a transient rise in SALP1 fraction. Immediately after exposure to cold environment, there was significant elevation in SCPK activity. Value returned to normal after transient rise. A new steady state of SCPK activity seemed to be reached by 36 days. It may be inferred from the above data that thermal compensation appears to result from a change in the activity of an enzyme and that the SLDH, SLDH-isozyme, SALP-isozyme, and SCPK may be involved directly or indirectly in thermoregulation during acclimation to cold environment.

  • For the purpose of identification of inheritance in allotriploid between rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and coho salmon (O. kisutch), five isozymes, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH), phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) and phosphoglucomutase (PGM) from skeletal muscle in two species and their allotriploid were analyzed. All of these loci showed differences between two species and their allotriploid except PGI. Generally, coho salmon was more monomorphic in these isozyme loci than rainbow trout. Their allotriploids showed intermediate patterns between the parental species in those isozyme loci except PGI. As a result of this study, LDH, MDH, IDH and PSM may be used as useful genetic markers in these two species, and they also be of use in studying hybrid and allotriploid in salmonids.

  • In order to elucidate the effects of copper on Corassius carassius, the following were studied: 1) lactate dehydrogenase isozyme patterns by cellulose acetate electrophoresis, 2) LDH activity and copper effect on LDH enzyme system y spectrophotometry, 3) esterase isozyme patterns by agar thin layer electrophoresis, 4) hemoglobin patterns by starch gel electrophoresis, and 5) histological study. 1. There were two bands of LDH isozymes (LDH-3 and LDH-5) in the gill, three bands (LDH-2, LDH-4, and LDH-5) in the liver, and two bands (LDH-3 and LDH-4) in the muscle of the normal fish. The LDH-1 bond was not found in the above three tissues. When the fish were exposed to copper, LDH-3 appeared in the liver, LDH-5 in the muscle, but no new LDH band appeared in the gill. 2. The sepcific activities of the LDH were lowest in the gill and highest in the muscle of the normal fish, and they were gradually decreassed in the gill and highest in the muscle of the normal fish, and they were gradually decreased in the liver and mucle except in the gill from 1-day to 10-day exposure to copper. It indicates that LDH activities in the liver and muscle of the fish were inhibited by copper. 3. Through in vitro experiment, it is clear that the decrease of the LDH activities of the liver and muscle of the fish exposed to copper is mainly caused by the inhibition on the M-LDH in the fish. 4. The numbers of the esterase isozyme bands of the gill, liver, muscle, blood, brain, and kidney of the normal fish were 3, 6, 2, 2, 2, and 2 respectively, and these numbers were the same as those exposed to copper. The relative mobilities of the esterase bands in the gill, liver, blood, and kidney of the exposed group were different from those of the control. 5. There was one hemoglobin band on the anode in the normal fish. It seems that the nobility of hemoglobin band of the fish exposed to copper was slightly faster than that of the normal fish. 6. The normal gill lamellae of the fish consisted of centrally located pillar cells and a number of mucus cells. When the fish were exposed to copper, the epithelial layer was divorced first, disintegrated, and then destroyed completely. 7. The liver of the normal fish had prominent central veins, cords of hepatic cells, and sinusoids. When the fish were exposed to copper, numerous droplets of fat appeared in the cells around the central vein of the liver. It is assumed that the fatty droplets were accumulated by the lesion due to fatty metamorphosis of the liver caused by copper. 8. There was no histological difference between the muscle of the normal fish and that of the fish exposed to copper. 9. In the normal fish, the tubules of the kidney were surrounded by hemopoetic tissues. However, the kidney tissue of the fish exposed to copper received some damage on the proximal tubules. Since the tubule cells were reduced in height, the lumens of the tubules were enlarged. Consequently many proximal tubules exhibited some pink-stained granular casts and various stages of degeneration.

  • 연어류의 종간교배 실험과 LDH, MDH, IDH, $\alpha$GODH, ME 등 다섯가지 isozyme에 대한 genetic marker로서의 활용 가능성을 알아보고자 1차적으로 연어, 산천어 및 무지개송어를 이용하여 종간교배를 실시하였고 이들 세종의 isozyme pattern을 비교하였다. 교배실험은 종간교배, 및 allotriploid 구간 등 12구간으로 나누어 실시하였으며 연어 암컷과 산천어 수컷의 교배결과가 초기성장 단계적에서 가장 우수하게 나타났고이들의 allotriploid도 부활율이 28.1%로 가장 우수하였다. Genetic identification을 위한 isozyme loci 분석결과 연어와 산천어는 대부분의 loci에서 거의 찾아볼 수 없었고 무지개송어는 MDH-B와 IDH에서 다형현상을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 MDH-B loci는 b 유전자의 출현 빈도에서 세 종간의 식별이 가능하였으며, IDH pattern을 산천어와 무지개송어의 비교에 유효한 것으로 나타났다. 이들 두 loci는 hybrid의 genotype 분석시 유용한 marker로 활용할 수 있는 가능성을 보였고, 앞으로의 어류 육종에 좋은 기초 자료로 이용될 것으로 사료된다.
