[Changes in the properties of photostimulated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase from the retina of rats with hereditary retinal degeneration].
A degree of extractability and activation of cGMP-phosphodiesterase (PDE) (EC. 3.1.4.17) from the rod outer segment membranes was studied in Campbell rats with inherited retinal degeneration and control Wistar rats as compared to the control, the PDE extractability in the diseased rats was found to be considerably lower, which manifested as early as the 15th day of the postnatal life. Changes in the GTP-stimulated and basal PDE activity were observed in Campbell rats. Beginning from the 25th day of the postnatal life the GTP-stimulated PDE of degenerative retina decreased and by the 60th day it reached the basal activity level in these animals. In the diseased rats the first 57 days of postnatal life the basal activity of PDE was sufficiently higher, followed by a sharp decrease reaching the basal activity level of the control rats. The obtained data on the changed PDE activity are likely to be a result of the disturbance in the protein-lipid interaction and a change in the external layer of the photoreceptor membranes in rats with inherited retinal degeneration.
