The subcellular distribution of 5'-nucleotidase and adenosine deaminase in rat brain hypothalamus and hippocampus was studied. In the hippocampus the 5'-nucleotidase activity was shown to be much higher than in the hypothalamus, while the adenosine deaminase activity, contrariwise, is nearly two times as high as that in the hypothalamus. During the analysis of subcellular distribution 5'-nucleotidase and adenosine deaminase were detected in all fractions under study, i.

The effect of single (1.4 and 24 h) and long-term (7 days) hydrocortisone intramuscular administration (5 mg/100 g of body mass) on 5'-nucleotidase and adenosine deaminase activities in homogenate and subcellular fractions of the rat brain hypothalamus and hippocampus has been studied. Enzymatic activity of adenosine metabolism in hypothalamus and hippocampus has been shown to undergo changes with the duration of hydrocortisone administration.

Corticosteroid metabolism in the liver and the level of c-AMP in the liver and spleen of rats with experimental toxic hepatitis were investigated after splenin administration. Hydrocortisone metabolites were isolated by a method of two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography. It was shown that their production and the level of c-AMP in the liver and spleen after simulation of experimental hepatitis were considerably reduced.
