Studies on the metabolism of murine leprosy bacilli. I. Stimulating effect of mitochondria extract of rat liver on the metabolism of bacilli.
Biochemical study on the metabolism of murine leprosy bacilli was first com menced by Hanks (1951). According to his report, the hydrogen transfer capacity of the bacilli was so feeble that only 0.8ƒÊmole of TTC (Triphenyl Tetrazolium Chloride) was reduced per mg nitrogen of the bacilli after 24 hours' incubation at 37•Ž. Soon after, Gray (1952) has found by manometric method that only 5 cmm of...

Introduction: Leprosy is an ancient deforming disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae, which is still poorly understood and often feared by the general public and even by some in the health care professions. Fortunately, the outlook for patients has dramatically improved over the last three decades with the introduction of multi-drug treatment and management strategies that have somewhat dim...
متن کاملBiochemical and ultrastructural study of the relationship between lysosomal enzyme activities and chemotherapy.
One of th e ultrastructural charac teristics of lepra cells in human leprosy is the occurrence of opaque droplets around the bacilli (D. 12) . Electron microscopic cytochemistry showed tha t these droplets contain acid phosphatase, and consequently they were named "lysosomal substances" (10) . In addition it was observed that chemotherapy, especially with DDS, elicits the formation of the lysos...
متن کاملLipids in leprosy. I. Histochemistry of lipids in murine leprosy.
Murine leprosy is analogous to hum an lepromatous leprosy by similarities in host cell reaotions and some characteristics of causative agents. As in the lcsions of lepromatous lcprosy so also in the lesions of murine leprosy there arc innumerable undigested bacilli and large amounts of lipids in maerophages. The present studies were initiated as a part of a series of analysis of the chemical co...
متن کاملInfluence of physical and chemical factors on the hydrogen transfer capacity of murine leprosy bacilli.
Another paper (6) summarizes certain implications for leprosy research involved in successful application of metabolic methods to washed suspensions of M. leprae murium and by similar studies with cultivable mycobacteria. It must be emphasized that no attempt has been made previously to utilize metabolic methods in such manner that the data obtained could substitute for cultivation or infection...
