“…Ca++-ATPase activity, an energy dependent calcium extrusion pump, is well accepted to reflect intracellular calcium level. Some cytochemical investigations of the Ca++-ATPase in several organs have been reported with a new one-step method by Ando et al (1,2,9,10,23,28). In our present study with the use of this method the enzyme activity in the rat epidermis was detected.…”

“…Sections were incubated at 37°C for 30 minute for succinatic dehydrogenase (SDH) activity (Novikoff et al, 1961) and mitochondrial Ca-adenosine triphosphatase (mitochondrial Ca-ATPase) activity (Fujimoto and Ogawa, 1982). Under a microscope, an ocular micrometer of 100pm on each side was placed at the intersection of X-Y axes.…”

Summary: Twelve male 9-week-old Wistar rats were used in this study. Intrinsic (transverse, longitudinal and vertical) and extrinsic (genioglossus) muscles of the tongue were examined using histochemical methods. Intrinsic muscle consists mainly of intermediate and red fiber types; in contrast, there is an increase in the white fiber type in extrinsic muscle. The predominant fiber types, red and intermediate, in the intrinsic muscle are smaller than those of the extrinsic muscle. Among the intrinsic muscles, the longitudinal muscle fibers show a tendency to be smaller in size than the others. The continuous movement of the intrinsic muscle fibers influences the shape of the tongue and contributes to versatile activity in chewing. In contrast, extrinsic muscle of the rat tongue reflects powerful movements in mastication, swallowing and squeaking owing to the increased percentage composition of the white fiber type.

“…Serial cross sections (about 101.1m) were cut in a cryostat at-20'C, and air dried. Each section was incubated for Ca-activated adenosine triphosphatase at pH 9.4 (Padykula and Herman, 1955), after preincubation at various pH levels (pH 9.4, 5.0, 4.7, 4.5 or 4.3), for succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) activity (Novikoff et al, 1961), and for Ca-adenosine triphosphatase (mitochondrial Ca-ATPase) activity (Fujimoto and Ogawa, 1982), Sudan black B stain (Gauthier and Padykula, 1966) and glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (a-GPDH) (Pearse, 1972), and periodic acid-Schiff reaction (PAS) were used to demonstrate the types of jaw muscle fibers. According to system of Putnam et al, (1980), fibers were classified into four types, as fast twitch glycolytic (FG), fast twitch oxidative glycolytic (FOG), slow twitch oxidative (SO) fibers, and tonic fibers.…”
