چکیده

The rates of acid production were compared in thin strips of muscle biopsy samples isolated from malignant hyperpyrexia and control vastus internus human muscle. Halothane doubled the rate of acid production by malignant hyperpyrexia susceptible muscle but had no effect on control samples. This increased rate of release of acid from muscle was not from lactate. In addition, the pyruvate dehydrogenase activity of both control and malignant hyperpyrexia muscle samples was not stimulated by halothane.

Microcalorimetric studies in malignant hyperpyrexia susceptible individuals.

In an attempt to develop a diagnostic test for malignant hyperpyrexia (MH) without the need for open muscle biopsy, we have investigated the change in heat production brought about when platelets and muscle are exposed to halothane and caffeine. Halothane 3% caused platelet aggregation, which was itself associated with heat production. Caffeine 4 mmol litre-1 decreased heat production in platel...

An improved spectrophotometric assay of pyruvate dehydrogenase in lactate dehydrogenase contaminated mitochondrial preparations from human skeletal muscle.

In mitochondria-enriched preparations of human skeletal muscle, the measurement of pyruvate dehydrogenase activity, as determined by conventional spectrophotometric assay of NADH accumulation, is underestimated due to the oxidizing activity of the contaminating lactate dehydrogenase. Using a model reaction system consisting of varying mixtures of purified lactate and pyruvate dehydrogenases, we...
