Abstract

The present investigation was aimed at elucidating the localization patterns of the phosphatases, oxidoreductases, and non-specific esterase in the uterus of canines collected after ovariohysterectomy and correlating these enzymes with the stage of reproduction and disease conditions. Cryostat sections of 6-7 μ thickness at -20°C were obtained on glass slides with cryostat microtome and incubated with substrates of different enzymes. A strongly positive reaction of phosphatases and oxidoreductases was seen in the epithelium lining the endometrium and endometrial glands, and blood vessels in the prepubertal, cyclical, and gravid uterus. There was spatial localization of enzymes some of the enzymes (AKPase) were localized in the basal region of epithelium and glands which might be indicative of cellular transport towards the basal compartment while most of the enzymes were localized in the apical region of the cells or in dispersed in the cytoplasm of the cells. The reaction of these enzymes in the diseased uterus was strong to intense in papillary endometrial hyperplasia, cystic papillary endometrial hyperplasia, and cystic endometrial hyperplasia and that could be due to degenerative changes occurring due to infections. It was concluded that the reactivity was higher in the epithelium, glands of pubertal and pregnant animals as compared to the prepubertal group, while the reactivity of most of the enzymes was stronger in diseased animals.
