The effect of undernutrition on the activity of two key enzymes of purine salvage pathway, namely hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRTase) and adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRTase), in cerebral hemispheres, cerebellum and brain stem of rats at different days of postnatal development was studied. The activity of HGPRTase and of APRTase is significantly lower in all brain regions of undernourished animals at 5 days after birth; between 10 and 15 days of age there is a recovery of the enzymatic activity which is particularly evident in the cerebellum. Successively both enzymatic activities decrease reaching at 30 days of age values quite similar to those of controls. These results indicate that undernutrition during fetal and postnatal development, impairs and delays the activity of the enzymes of purine salvage pathway.
