  • Title: AMP deaminase, 5'-nucleotidase and adenosine deaminase in rat myocardial tissue in myocardial infarction and hypothermia.
    Author: Saleem Y, Niveditha T, Sadasivudu B.
    Journal: Experientia; 1982 Jul 15; 38(7):776-7. PubMed ID: 6286339.
    Abstract:
    AMP deaminase, 5'-nucleotidase and adenosine deaminase have been estimated in skeletal muscle and myocardial tissue in normal rats and in rats subjected to experimental myocardial infarction or hypothermia. A difference in the enzyme distribution was found between the right and left ventricles in the normal rat. A decrease in the activity of 5'-nucleotidase and an increase in the activity of adenosine deaminase were observed in infarcted myocardial tissue. The activity of all 3 enzymes was found to be depressed in the myocardium in rats subjected to hypothermia. These results are discussed in relation to adenosine production and its beneficial effects.
