Abstract
RECENTLY I have studied histochemically three dehydrogenase systems, namely, succinic phosphopyridine nucleotide (DPN) and triphosphopyridine nucleotide (TPN) diaphorases and the DPN-dependent enzymes: lactic, malic, glutamic, β-hydroxybutyric, and ethanolic dehydrogenases, in the renal adenocarcinoma occurring in a laboratory strain of the oviparous toothcarp Aplocheilus lineatus 1. In continuation of this investigation I decided to study the distribution of these enzymes, and also œstradiol-17β-dehydrogenase, in the erythrocytes of some of the lower vertebrates, namely, some teleosts, amphibians and reptilians.
