  • Title: Reduction of N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase activity in the submaxillary glands of streptozotocin diabetic mice.
    Author: Hatakeyama K, Hiramatsu M, Minami N.
    Journal: J Biochem; 1980 Aug; 88(2):613-5. PubMed ID: 7419514.
    Abstract:
    Streptozotocin diabetes strongly reduced the N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase activity in the submaxillary glands of mice. A reciprocal change was observed between the enzyme activity and blood sugar in diabetes. Insulin treatment of th diabetic mice returned the reduced activity to the normal level. Isoelectric focusing analysis showed that the submaxillary gland enzyme was composed of two isozymes having isoelectric points (pI) of 4.8 and 8.8. Only the pI 8.8 isozyme was affected by the diabetes.
