ENZYMES OF ENERGY METABOLISM IN BRAIN AND CHRONIC STRESS
Journal Title: Журнал ÑтреÑÑ-физиологии и биохимии - Year 2009, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The development of changes in the activity of creatinkinase, aldolase and succinatdehydrogenase in brain cells under 30-day long stress induced by isolation and violated diurnal cycle has been studied. It was shown that these enzymes heterogeneously responded to 30-day long stress. Particular sensitivity was recorded in the case of succinatedehydrogenase, which showed the decline of activity in various sections of the brain by 60-80% on average. Unlike succinatedehydrogenase, aldolase activity increased on the 10th day of stress and then declined. Similar results were observed in relation to phosphokinase activity.
