Comparison of thermal acclimation effects on the metabolism of Chalcides ocellatus (desert lizard) and Lacerta vivipara (cool-temperate lizard).

The ocellated lizard, Chalcides ocellatus, and the common lizard, Lacerta vivipara, were acclimated to two temperature regimes (10 and 30 degrees C with 12L:12D photoperiod) for 2 weeks. The oxygen consumption rates were measured for both species at temperatures between 5 and 35 degrees C. Cold acclimation was observed in L. vivipara and was in the form of an upward translation of the metabolic rate-temperature curve in comparison to the warm-acclimated lizards (30 degrees C). Chalcides ocellatus showed a response to cold acclimation by decreasing its metabolism only at 10 degrees C.

Significance of the variation in isozymes of liver lactate dehydrogenase with thermal acclimation in goldfish--I. Thermostability and temperature dependency.

1. Total and isozyme properties as well as isozyme pattern were examined in liver lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) from goldfish acclimated to different temperatures. 2. LDH of warm-acclimated fish were thermostable and exhibited higher Q10 in low temperature range as compared with that of co ld-acclimated fish. 3. The relative activities of LDH-1, LDH-2 and LDH-3, which were more thermostable, increased and LDH-4 and LDH-5, which were more heat sensitive, decreased during warm acclimation. Q10 in the low temperature range for LDH-5 was lower than that for LDH-1.

Lactate dehydrogenase activity and lactate/pyruvate ratio in muscle of thermally acclimated goldfish.

1. Some glycolytic metabolites were determined for red muscle (RM) and white muscle (WM) of goldfish acclimated to 10 and 25 degrees C. 2. Lactate/pyruvate (L/P) was higher in RM than in WM. 3. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) of RM was slightly more susceptible to inhibition by lactate than WM-LDH. At L/P found in vivo under resting conditions, RM-LDH was about three times as inhibited as WM-LDH. 4. When 25 degrees C-fish were forced to swim at 25 degrees C, the increase of L/P in WM was mainly due to increased lactate level and that in RM was ascribed to decreased pyruvate level. These changes were obscure in 10 degrees C-fish.

Viability control and oxygen consumption of isolated hepatocytes from thermally acclimated rainbow trout (Salmo gairdnerii).

Hepatocytes were isolated by collagenase perfusion of the liver from rainbow trout acclimated to 10 and 20 degrees C. The suitability of the stimulation of cellular respiration by succinate as criterion of viability was examined and discussed. Endogenous respiration rates of the hepatocytes were a function of cell size to the power of 0.8. Specific oxygen consumption of the hepatocytes and respiratory control ratios of the mitochondria in situ were independent of acclimation temperature.

The effects of temperature on the cytochrome P-450 system of thermally acclimated bluegill.

The effects of temperature acclimation at 10, 20 and 30 degrees C on the concentration and activity of the mixed function oxidase system in bluegill are as follows. Liver weight/body weight varied inversely with temperature. Significant (P less than 0.05) differences in concentration of cytochrome P-450 of hepatic microsomes were seen and varied inversely with temperature. Benzo(a)pyrene hydroxylase activity tested in vitro at incubation temperatures of 10, 20 and 30 degrees C showed significant differences in Km, but no differences in Vmax. SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed some quantitative differences in cytochrome P-450 isozymes between groups.

Rhodamine 123 permeability through the catfish intestinal wall: Relationship to thermal acclimation and acute temperature change.

Temperature is known to influence xenobiotic retention in fish. The effect of acute and acclimatory temperature change upon Rhodamine 123 (Rho123) permeability through an in vitro catfish multi-segment (3) everted sac intestinal wall model was examined in a 9 cell matrix of acclimation and assay temperatures (10, 20 and 30 degrees C). Changes in Rho123 permeability were examined in context with membrane fluidity, xenobiotic solubility and intestinal morphology. When assayed at the acclimation temperature greater Rho123 permeability was noted at warmer acclimation temperatures for the proximal and middle intestinal segments, while the distal segment exhibited little change and apparent compensation across temperatures. Rho123 permeability was increased as assay temperatures were elevated above the acclimation temperature for most comparisons. Cold acclimation significantly increased total intestinal length (43.2%) and proximal intestine weights while total body weights did not differ. Brush border membranes (BBM) increased fluidity with increased assay temperatures, however, composite anisotropy lines were not significantly different between acclimation treatments. In an additive manner, the membrane probe DPH exhibited increased solubility in BBM with increases in acclimation and assay temperatures. Compositely, these results suggest that acclimation and acute temperature change may differentially influence xenobiotic permeability among intestinal segments with interacting mechanisms.
