We have developed an automated enzymatic assay for LDH-C4, a lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) isoenzyme found exclusively in spermatozoa, as a marker of human spermatogenesis. LDH-C4 activity is assayed bichromatically in the Abbott ABA-100 spectrophotometer, with 2-oxohexanoate as substrate. As

Tracer methods using both carbon-13 and -14 have been utilized for determination of ovine fetal amino acid disposal and the results compared in seven animals. We infused [1-13C]leucine simultaneously with [1-14C]leucine into the fetal circulation of pregnant sheep chronically catheterized

The inhibitory effect of branched chain amino acids on muscle protein breakdown has been attributed to the ketoanalogue of leucine, alpha-ketoisocaproic acid. In an attempt to demonstrate a possible dose-response relationship for ketoleucine, the postoperative protein breakdown (using urinary excretion

Lactate dehydrogenase C4 isoenzyme (LDH-C4) is involved in the energy metabolism of spermatozoa. Sperm capacitation is considered part of an oxidative process; an NADH oxidase of plasma membrane could be responsible for superoxide anion generation which is required for capacitation.

We examined the relation between the islet NO system and islet hormone secretion induced by either the non-glucose nutrient alpha-ketoisocaproic acid (KIC) or, in some experiments, glucose. KIC dose dependently stimulated insulin but inhibited glucagon secretion. In a medium devoid
