[Change in the concentration of nicotinamide nucleotides in rat brain and myocardium under the influence of factors inducing neurogenic dystrophy].
The content of nicotinamide dinucleotides in the brain and myocardium induced by electrical stimulation of rats and by injection of toxic noradrenaline doses was investigated. The total level of pyridine nucleotides and of their oxidized forms proved to be decreased, and the content of triphosphopyridine nucleotides and their synthesis activity rose. The data obtained point to disturbances of the redox processes and to increase of hexose monophosphate shunt activity in the tissues by neurogenic dystrophies induced by excessive irritation.
