The different distribution of cytochemically demonstrable enzymes: lactate dehydrogenase (LDH, 1.1.1.27), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH, 1.3.99.1), dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR, 1.5.1.3), acid phosphatase (AcP, 3.1.3.2) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP, 3.1.3.1), has been documented in Yoshida ascites hepatoma cells in vivo or stored at 80 degrees C. The dehydrogenase activities (LDH, SDH, DHFR) show a strong reaction in all samples. An increased level of these enzyme activities has been observed in the malignant cells spreading through the organs of tumor bearing rats. On the contrary, in the same samples, acid and alkaline phosphatase activities are very low. The strong dehydrogenase activities observed in Yoshida ascite cells stress the rapid turnover of tumor cells. Our results indicate that the histochemical method may be a useful tool to detect the scattered tumor cells. Furthermore, the cytochemical methods allow the characterization of the metabolic pathways employed by the primary and disseminated tumor cells.
