The rabbits being repeatedly poisoned with small doses of sodium cyanide, the activity of succinic dehydrogenase in the tissues does not essentially change. The activity of NAD.H2-cytochrome-c-reductase and NAD.H2-diaphorase in the brain, myocardium and kidneys increases. Under histotoxic hypoxia the level of iron in the tissues increases by 52-93%, that of copper--by 28-36%, of zinc--by 21-74% and of cobalt by 28-40%. There existed a positive correlation between the content of iron and the activity of NAD-dependent enzymes. In nonlethal form of histotoxic hypoxia the content of nonhemin iron and the activity of NAD.H2-cytochrome-c-reductase in the mitochondria of the brain increases by 25% and 17%, respectively, and a direct correlation is revealed between them.
