Different fixation media have been compared in order to find one that preserves the histological structure of rat liver and allows unambiguous immunohistochemical detection of carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase (ammonia). Fixation of rat liver in a mixture of methanol, acetone, and water yields the most intense immunohistochemical staining. Using a specific antiserum raised against rat liver carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase, less than 1% of the enzyme protein is extractable after this fixation procedure, and the histological structure is similar to that after fixation in Bouin's fixative. Specific immunohistochemical staining is localized exclusively in the cytoplasm of the parenchymal cells; its granular distribution is in accordance with the mitochondrial localization of carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase. Immunohistochemical staining shows a heterogeneous distribution within the liver acinus. Staining is most intense around the portal venules, decreases slowly toward the hepatic venules and is, after an abrupt decrease, virtually absent in a limited area surrounding these venules. The possible significance of the heterogeneous distribution of carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase for ammonia metabolism is discussed.
