Abstract
Effects of hypothermia and subsequent self-warming on activity of Ca2+-dependent neutral proteases were studied in tissues of ground squirrels and rats. Moderate hypothermia did not significantly change activity of Ca2+-dependent neutral proteases in the analyzed tissues of ground squirrels, but reduced protease activity in rat heart. Severe hypothermia reduced enzyme activity in the analyzed tissues of rats and ground squirrels. Differences in activity of Ca2+-dependent neutral proteases after long-term hypothermia and subsequent self-warming were found only in the heart.
