Isoelectric focusing pattern of acid hydrolases in cultured fibroblasts, leucocytes and cell-free amniotic fluid

Isoelectric focusing pattern of acid hydrolases in cultured fibroblasts, leucocytes and cell-free amniotic fluid

H Christomanou et al. Neuropadiatrie. 1977 Aug.

Abstract

The activities of 9 acid hydrolases were determined in cell-free amniotic fluid, leucocytes and cultured fibroblasts using fluorogenic substrates. The specific activities of beta-glucosidase, alpha-fucosidase, beta-hexosaminidase, and arylsulphatase A and B were found to be in the same range in cell-free amniotic fluid and in leucocyties. The isoenzyme pattern of these 5 hydrolases as well as that of acid phosphatase and alpha-mannosidase showed some similarities in all three specimens studied; the pattern of alpha- and beta-galactosidase obtained by isoelectric focusing was different in the 2 types of cells studied and in the cell-free amniotic fluid.
