Abstract
The maturing reticulocyte degrades ribosomal RNA to constituent ribonucleoside phosphates. Guanosine ribonucleotides are retained only in small amounts and pyrimidine ribonucleotides only in trace quantities. In the mature erythrocyte more than 97% of total nucleotides are the interconvertible adenosine mono-, di-, and triphosphates. High energy ATP fuels most of the reactions required to sustain viability. Unable to synthesize adenosine phosphates from small precursor molecules, the red cell relies on certain salvage pathways to replenish its losses from the adenosine phosphate pool. The most important of these involve adenosine. Adenylate kinase deficiency, when severe, is associated with nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia. A genetically-determined deficiency of pyrimidine 5'-nucleotidase prevents the normal dephosphorylation of pyrimidine ribonucleotides, and hence is characterized by the unique accumulation of pyrimidine phosphates intracellularly. Other features are chronic hemolytic anemia, splenomegaly, and a profound increase in basophilic stippling on the stained blood film. The syndrome is transmitted as an autosomal recessive disorder. A similar syndrome is found in severe lead poisoning as a consequence of nucleotidase inhibition by lead. An inherited, dominantly transmitted hemolytic anemia associated with low red cell ATP and a 45-70 fold increase in the enzymatic activity of adenosine deaminase has also been documented. The undefined molecular lesion appears to involve overproduction of an entirely normal enzyme protein. Severe deficiency of either of two sequential enzymes of purine metabolism, adenosine deaminase anemia, but by excessive accumulations of deoxyribonucleotides within red cells and lymphocytes. The clinical counterpart of each is a severe immunodeficiency state secondary to lymphopenia and lymphocyte dysfunction. Certain other rare clinical syndromes involving disturbed nucleotide metabolism also are detectable by red cell assay procedures.

Abstract
Two subjects, not previously reported in detail, had severe inherited deficiencies of erythrocyte pyrimidine nucleotidase. This was manifested hematologically by moderate hemolytic anemia with splenomegaly, morphologically by punctate basophilic stippling of Wright's stained erythrocytes, and biochemically by intraerythrocytic accumulation of pyrimidine nucleotides, elevated concentrations of reduced glutathione, and partial deficiencies of ribosephosphate pyrophosphokinase. All 5 of their children were asymptomatic and phenotypically normal except for intermediate reductions in activities of pyrimidine nucleotidase consistent with heterozygosity for an autosomal recessive defect.

Abstract
We compared glucose metabolism by erythrocytes from patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy and by erythrocytes from control individuals. There was a significant decrease in the rate of lactate production at pH 7.2 in the dystrophic group. When the pH of the incubation medium was changed to 8.0, we found that the increase in the rate of lactate production for the dystrophic group was significantly larger. We measured the concentrations of key glycolytic metabolites and adenine nucleotides and determined the values of the energy charge during these incubations. We also determined the concentrations of polyol pathway intermediates, the activities of the oxidative portion of the pentose phosphate pathway and the activities and kinetics of phosphofructokinase from both cell groups. There were no significant differences between groups for any of these variables.

Abstract
Bleeding times of mink with the Chediak-Higashi (CH) syndrome was markedly prolonged. Platelet counts were normal but there was an impaired platelet aggregation response to collagen. The metabolic adenine nucleotide pool of platelets from normal and CH mink was labeled with 14C-adenine and the platelets were gel-filtered. Gel-filtered platelets (GFP) from CH mink contained only 37.9% of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and 9.6% of the adenosine diphosphate (ADP) found in normal platelets and the ATP/ADP ratio was similar to the 14C-ATP/14C-ADP ratio. Platelet content of Ca2+, Mg2+, and in particular 5-hydroxytryptamine was decreased. When GFP were incubated with thrombin to induce maximal secretion, only negligible amounts of ATP and ADP were released. The specific activity of the extracellular nucleotides approximated that within the platelet. These findings suggest that the stored nucleotide pool in CH platelets is virtually absent and that the abnormalities in platelet function may be due, in part, to the essential absence of secretable ADP and serotonin. The release of Ca2+ and Mg2+ by CH platelets was 56% and 27.8% of normal, respectively.

Abstract
1. Shape change, aggregation and secretion of dense-granule constituents in platelets differ in their dependence on cellular energy metabolism. The possibility that such a difference also exists between secretion of dense-granule constituents and acid hydrolases was investigated. 2. Human platelets were incubated with [(14)C]adenine in plasma, and then washed and resuspended in salt solutions. The effects of incubating the cells with antimycin A and 2-deoxyglucose on the concentrations of [(14)C]ATP, ADP, AMP, IMP and inosine plus hypoxanthine and on thrombin-induced secretion of ATP plus ADP and acid hydrolases were studied. The metabolic inhibitors only affected (14)C-labelled nucleotides, whereas thrombin only liberated unlabelled ATP and ADP. 3. The extent of secretion decreased progressively with time during incubation with the metabolic inhibitors. At any time the secretion of acid hydrolases, beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase, beta-glucuronidase and beta-galactosidase was inhibited to a greater extent than secretion of ATP plus ADP (dense-granule secretion). 4. Incubation with the metabolic inhibitors shifted the log (dose)-response relationship to higher thrombin concentrations, and with a greater shift for acid hydrolase secretion than for dense-granule secretion. 5. Antimycin, when present alone, caused a marked decrease in the rate of acid hydrolase secretion, but had no effect on dense-granule secretion. 6. These results further support the view that acid hydrolase secretion and dense-granule secretion are separate processes with different requirements for ATP energy. Acid hydrolase secretion, but not dense-granule secretion, appears to depend on a simultaneous rapid generation of ATP, which can be accomplished by oxidative, but not by glycolytic, ATP production.

Abstract
The effect of adenosine on the mitogenic response of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) and on the nucleotide pools of erythrocytes from normal horses, horses heterozygous for the combined immunodeficiency (CID) trait (carriers), and foals with CID was studied. When PBL from normal, carrier, and CID horses were stimulated by phytohemagglutinin (PHA), concanavalin A, or pokeweed mitogen, [3H]thymidine uptake was inhibited by adenosine (0.1 microM) to 1.0 mM) in a dose-dependent manner. Adenosine (100 microM) mediated inhibition of [3H]thymidine uptake was prevented in both normal and carrier horse PBL by incubation with uridine. Uridine had no sparing effect on PBL from horses with CID. Differences were detected between human and horse PBL in response to adenosine and erythro-9(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl) adenine (EHNA), a competitive inhibitor of adenosine deaminase. In the first assay, mitogen-stimulated PBL from horses were more sensitive to adenosine. In the second assay, adenosine was added to PBL cultures at various times after PHA addition. Adenosine inhibited mitogenesis in horse PBL if added within the first 24 h. In human PBL cultures, adenosine inhibited mitogenesis only if added within the first 4 h. The third assay measured capacity of PHA-stimulated human and horse lymphocytes to escape inhibition by adenosine or EHNA. At the end of a 72-h culture period, horse PBL were still inhibited of mitogenesis in both human and horse PBL. With prolonged incubation (72 h), synergistic inhibition was detected only in horse PB. With high-pressure liquid chromatography, nucleotide levels in erythrocytes of normal, carrier, and CID horses were found to be similar. Incubation with adenosine produced a 1.5- to 2-fold increase in total adenine nucleotide pools in erythrocytes from all horses. However, these increases were accompanied by alterations in the relative amounts of the nucleotide components. This was seen as a significant decrease in the ATP:(AMP plus ADP plus ATP) ratio and energy charge in erythrocytes from normal horses. In contrast, the ATP:(AMP plus ADP plus ATP) ratio decreased only slightly in erythrocytes from CID horses, whereas no change in the energy charge was detected. The data from these studies indicate a difference in adenosine metabolism exists between human and horse lymphoyctes, and an abnormality may exist in purine metabolism or in an interconnecting pathway in horses with CID.

Abstract
The decreased membrane fluidity of the in vivo aged, human erythrocytes is found, by monitoring the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of fatty acid spin labels incorporated into the membrane. In addition, the decreased cell sizes and the decreased cholesterol and phospholipids contents, without significant changes of the quantity of the membrane proteins, also the decrease of ATP and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate and the increase of ADP and AMP, in the aged cells, were observed. Further the functional impairments of the aged cells, i.e. the increased oxygen affinity and the decreased deformability, were shown. On the basis of these quantitative data, the alteration of the protein-lipid organization, due to decreased lipid/protein ratio, the modified protein-lipid interaction and/or the influences of the diminished ATP content, is suggested to contribute towards the decreased membrane fluidity of the in vivo aged erythrocytes.

Abstract
The effect of acute hypoglycaemia on platelet function was examined in patients undergoing an insulin stress test. Enhanced platelet aggregation was observed in all cases but platelet count, platelet adenine nucleotides, and the plasma level of von Willebrand factor were unchanged overall. The onset of the hypoglycaemia-induced increase in platelet aggregation coincided with the lowest blood glucose levels recorded and with the clinical signs of adrenaline release. Increased platelet aggregation was maintained thereafter for the two-hour test period. There was no apparent correlation with changes in cortisol, growth hormone, and prolactin. No change in platelet function was observed after the administration of L-dopa. We suggest that the measurement of platelet aggregation during a standard insulin stress test may provide a means of evaluating platelet function in vivo and the influence of drugs thereon.

Abstract
Platelet aggregation and the platelet prostaglandin pathway have been investigated in two patients with preleukaemic states who had a haemorrhagic tendency but a normal platelet count. In both patients platelet aggregation induced by collagen adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and arachidonic acid (AA) were abnormal. Malonyldiadehyde (MDA) production from exogenous AA was normal in both patients thus excluding cyclo-oxygenase deficiency. The platelet aggregating and rabbit aorta contracting activities of thromboxane A2 (TxA2) were very low in both patients. Production of thromboxane B2 (TxB2) assessed by thin layer chromatographic separation of the metabolites of [1(-14)C]AA and by radioimmunoassay, was normal. These abnormalities of platelet function appear to be due to the production of TxA2 with a low biological activity.

Abstract
The phosphorus NMR spectra of intracellular ATP in glycolyzing human red blood cells maintained at 37 degrees C in an atmosphere containing 5% CO2 have been obtained and quantitated under completely aerobic and anaerobic conditions. A comparison of the separation between the alphaP and betaP resonances and the alpha-beta and beta-gamma 31P spin-spin coupling constants of intracellular ATP with appropriate controls directly reveals that 84 +/- 4% and 78 +/- 4% of the total ATP are complexed to Mg2+ in the aerobic and anaerobic states of the cell, respectively. This determination does not differentiate between molecules free in solution and those bound to hemoglobin due to rapid exchange on the NMR time scale of free and complexed ATP. From these data and the prior knowledge of the interactions of various phosphorylated metabolites with hemoglobin and Mg2+, the intracellular concentration of free Mg2+ is determined to be 0.25 +/- 0.07 mM in the aerobic and 0.67 +/- 0.15 mM in the anaerobic state in a sample of normal red blood cells. Knowledge of free Mg2+ permitted a calculation of the distribution of ATP, ADP, glycerate-2,3-P2, and hemoglobin among their free and complexed forms. The results indicate that approximately 40% of the glycerate-2,3-P2 and ATP are complexed to hemoglobin even in aerobic cells and approximately 90% and approximately 60%, respectively, in completely anaerobic cells. The level of free ATP decreases 3-fold anaerobically whereas the MgATP changes very little. The intracellular level of MgADP increases about 2-fold upon deoxygenation. Since the Mg2+ in the red cell is largely complexed, the 3-fold increase in free Mg2+ under fully anaerobic conditions would significantly affect the rates of enzymatic reactions.
