TL;DR

Increase in the total acid hydrolase activity was detected in the cardiac and skeletal muscles and in the liver this in manifested by an increase in the acid phosphatase, cathepside D, and beta-glucosidase free activity and by reduction in the resistance of lysosomal membranes to the effect of osmotic shock.

Abstract

Administration to rabbits of hydrocortisone (8 mg/kg) and adrenaline (0.3 ml of 0.1% solution) during mild dithizone diabetes simulated hormonal reconstructions of the body exposed to stress. Activation of the cellular lysosomal apparatus occurs in such hormonal situation. In the liver this in manifested by an increase in the acid phosphatase, cathepside D, and beta-glucosidase free activity and by reduction in the resistance of lysosomal membranes to the effect of osmotic shock. Increase in the total acid hydrolase activity was detected in the cardiac and skeletal muscles.
