A quantitative calculation was made of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) activity in preimplantation mouse embryos from the 2-cell through the late blastocyst stage. This activity varied with development and showed repeated high and low values. Peak activities occurred at both the 2-cell (15.8%) and compacted morula (13.6%) stages, with lowest activity at the development of the late blastocyst (3.2%). The metabolic effectors dimitrophenol (DNP) and phenazine ethosulfate (PES) had opposite effects on PPP activity. Dinitrophenol, although stimulating total CO2 production, virtually eliminated PPP activity while PES stimulated the pentose cycle activity 6-fold. These results indicated that the PPP was under metabolic control and that the embryos had a potential for much larger PPP activities. There was no correlation between the C-1/C-6 ratio obtained from the metabolism of [1-14C] and [6-14C] glucose and calculated PPP activities. A metabolic incubation chamber was devised for these experiments that exhibited certain unique features, including continuous collection of 14CO2 and 3H2O. Single embryos were placed in the chamber and sampled momentarily for metabolic activity. Subsequently, such embryos were successfully transferred to pseudopregnant recipients.
