The staining intensity and inhibitor sensitivity of acid phosphatase activity was determined histochemically in various tissues of normal and ia rat pups by the use of freeze-dried whole body sections. Activity was determined using alpha-naphthylphosphate as substrate and hexazonium pararosaniline as coupler. Sections from ia rats (6 and 24 days old) showed markedly higher enzyme activity in bone than sections from normal littermates. However, there were no differences between ia and normal pups in acid phosphatase activity in soft tissues and developing teeth. Preincubation of sections with 1-100 mM sodium dithionite (an iron-binding agent) caused a dose-related inhibition of enzyme activity in bone of ia and normal pups, but only slight inhibition of activity in soft tissues. Partial restoration of the dithionite-inhibited activity in bone was achieved by subsequent preincubation in 1 mM FeCl2. Addition of 100 mM sodium tartrate to the staining solution of non-preincubated sections caused almost complete inhibition of activity in soft tissues and the developing teeth but no inhibition of the activity in bone that was sensitive to sodium dithionite. These data indicate a) that sodium dithionite can be used as a specific histochemical inhibitor of the tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase and b) that the source of increased acid phosphatase activity in bone from ia rats is mostly from the tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase.
