Catalase depression in malignant liver from chickens with myeloblastosis and Marek's disease.

Abstract:

:In rapidly frozen livers from chickens affected with myeloblastosis and Marek's disease and from unaffected control birds there exists a strong correlation between catalase activity and catalase Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) signal intensities. The diseased chickens had activities and signals reduced to as little as 10% of control values. There were no changes in the EPR parameters in diseased liver and the data support the hypothesis that the lowering in activity is due to lowered catalase levels rather than to catalase inhibition. The rate of transformation of catalase to catalase-formate in liver was studied by freeze-clamping liver in anaesthetised chickens, then warming to 37 degrees for 1 or 2 minutes anaerobiosis, and then refreezing. The only difference of significance in this transformation between diseased and normal livers was the greater percentage of total catalase present as catalase-formate (approximately + 15%) in aerobic diseased liver, which may indicate a lowered production of hydrogen peroxide, relative to formate, in these livers. The rate of transformation was far faster in chickens (t1/2 less than 1 min) than in the rat (t1/2 = 7.7 min).
