Abstract:
AIM: The aim of this research is to study the earlier enzyme activity changes of the diaphragm in diabetic rats. METHODS: An enzyme histochemical method was used to observe the changes in the enzyme activities of dehydrogenases,hydrolases and oxidases in 4th week diabetic rat diaphragm. RESULTS: The activites of enzymes including SDH(Succinate dehydrogenase),MDH(Malate dehydrogenase), GDH(Glutamate dehydrogenase), ICDH(Isocitrate dehydrogenase), NADHD(NADH diaphorase), G-6-PD(Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase), ACP(Acid phosphatase) and ANAE(Acid ?-naphtyl acid esterase) were increased in diabetic diaphragm compared with the control. LDH (Lactate dehydrogenase)and CCO(Cytochrome oxidase) activities were decreased, whereas NADPHD(NADPH diaphorase) showed no changes in diabetic rats. Eleven kinds of enzyme were analysed with image analysis.Optical density (A) of SDH, MDH, GDH, ICDH, NADHD, G-6-PD, ACP and ANAE in diaphragm of diabetic rats were significantly higher than that of control rats (P0.05). CONCLUSION: Increase in the aerobic capacity, decrease in the glycolytic capacity, and disturbance of lipid and energy metabolism were found in diaphragm of 4th week diabetic rats.
