Histochemical studies of the mitochondrial enzymes in the liver of guinea pig after anaphylactic shock.
With histochemical methods the activity and topography of the oxo-reductive enzymes of the liver acini was investigated in control animals and in animals after anaphylactic shock. The observed disturbances in enzyme activity are probably related with changes developing in the mitochondrial membranes of the hepatocytes. The decrease of enzyme activity of the nonspecific alfanapthylacetate esterase in liver cells of animals after anaphylactic shock may be indicative of the impairment of the function of the microsomes in the hepatocytes.
