چکیده
however, revealed wide differences in the relative activities of the two pathways in comparable tissues of different species. We wish to thank Professor John Lind, Department of Pediatrics, Karolinska Hospital, and Professor Carl Schmitterlow, Department of Pharmacology, Kungl. Veterinarhogskolan, for their generosity in providing the foetal specimens and the laboratory facilities for the experiments in Stockholm. This work was aided by grants from the Charles and Marjorie King Fund, from the Association for the Aid of Crippled Children, and Grant C-2400 from the National Institutes of Health.

Citric acid cycle patterns in certain thyroid states.
The “citric acid cycle” is now regarded as the final common pathway of metabolism serving as the primary route for the oxidation of metabolites. Likewise, the thyroid hormone is considered a major regulatory substance for biological oxidations. It, therefore, seemed logical to study possible quantitative alterations in the cycle acids in experimental hypoand hyperthyroid states. The concentrati...
متن کاملEffect of citric acid on antioxidant activity of garden cress (Lepidium sativum L.) under chromium stress
Chromium-VI would impose detrimental effects morphological, physiological, and metabolic in plants. This study aimed to research the impact of citric acid (0, 2.5 and 5 mM), on different the morphological and physiological characteristics of garden cress exposed to chromium-VI stress (0, 1, and 10 mM). Results showed that some growth parameters, chlorophyll, carotenoids, and DPPH activity decre...
متن کاملMetabolism of neoplastic tissue. III. Diphosphopyridine nucleotide requirements for oxidations by mitochondria of neoplastic and non-neoplastic tissues.
In previous publications we reported that oxidative processes of the citric acid cycle in tumor homogenates (29) or mitochondria isolated there from (30) are limited by the loss of diphosphopyridine nucleotide activity and that oxygen consump tion can be restored by the addition of this coenzyme to the medium in relatively high concen tration. The present report represents a further study of th...
متن کاملLactic and malic dehydrogenases in the developing chick embryo.
A study of the activity and distribution of glutamic dehydrogenase in various tissues of the developing chick embryo has recently been made (Solomon, 1957). It was found that glutamic dehydrogenase showed marked fluctuations of activity in certain tissues at various stages of development. However, as only relatively low amounts of the enzyme were found in all tissues of the chick embryo and fow...
متن کاملConversion of C-Labeled Acetate to Citric and Malic Acids in the Tomato Fruit.
The possible intermediary position of the plant acids in respiration and carbohydrate metabolism as indicated for some plant tissues, suggests that a similar situation may exist in fruit. Many fruits contain comparatively large amounts of various acids (8) and apparently have a very active acid metabolism, as shown by the changes in concentration which occur during growth, ripening and storage....
