[Dynamics of the activity of redox enzymes in peripheral blood lymphocytes of the newborn with a history of chronic intrauterine hypoxia].

Abstract

Study of the cytochemical characteristics of enzymatic activity of peripheral blood cells in the newborns with a history of medium-severe-chronic intrauterine hypoxia revealed shifts in the levels of succinate dehydrogenase and a-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase. These data imply that changed enzymatic activity of dehydrogenases is an unfavorable prognostic sign indicating failure of adaptation and deterioration of reactivity in the early neonatal period.
