[Enzymes of glycolysis and pentosephosphate shunt during early embryogenesis of the loach and the effect of glucose, lactate and fumarate on fertilized oocytes].

The regularities for changes were established in activity of hexokinase, glucokinase, glucosephosphate-isomerase, phosphofructokinase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenaseduring the early development of loach (Misgurnus fossilis). It was found that a 30-minute incubation of fertilized loach eggs in the lactate or fumarate solutions decreases the glucokinase activity in the embryos of 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 and 24 hours of their development, while the inhibitory effect of glucose on the enzyme activity is pronounced only after 18 and 24 hours of the development. A significant increase in the hexokinase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities under the above-mentioned conditions is observed only under the effect of glucose 9 and 6 and 9 hours, respectively, after fertilization. The glucose phosphate isomerase and phosphofructokinase activites under the effect of used compounds undergo no changes during the primary stages of embryogenesis.
