[Disorders of myocardial metabolism in sudden coronary death in the presence of coronary atherosclerosis: findings of quantitative histoenzymologic studies].
The activity of human myocardial enzymes in sudden coronary death (SCD) was quantitatively histochemically examined. The activity of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), beta-oxybutyrate dehydrogenase (beta-OBDH), alpha-glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase (alpha-GPDH), NAD-diaphorase (NAD-ase), and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH) was measured on prompt autopsies (up to 3 hours of death onset). beta-OBDH and LDH showed an increase in activity in the myocardium from the subjects who had suddenly died from coronary heart disease without evident changes in the heart. In SCD in the presence of small cardiosclerosis, the activity of the enzymes characterizing the major processes of energy generation was also enhanced, which was caused by moderately severe myocardial hypertrophy. In the myocardium from the subjects who had died from coronary heart disease in the presence of large postinfarction cardiosclerosis, the activity of the enzymes was directly related to the degree of myocardial hypertrophy and the signs of chronic heart failure. As myocardial hypertrophy progressed, the enzymatic activity rose, but there were signs of chronic heart failure, it fell. The findings suggest that the changes in myocardial enzymatic activity in SCD are heterogeneous and associated with the type of prior abnormalities in the cardiovascular system.
