Cytotoxicity of monocrotaline in isolated rat hepatocytes: effects of dithiothreitol and fructose.

Monocrotaline (MCT) is a pyrrolizidine alkaloid present in plants of the Crotalaria species that causes cytotoxicity and genotoxicity, including hepatotoxicity in animals and humans. It is metabolized by cytochrome P-450 in the liver to the alkylating agent dehydromonocrotaline (DHM). In previous studies using isolated rat liver mitochondria, we observed that DHM, but not MCT, inhibited the act...

Metabolism and Cytotoxic Mechanisms of Nitroglycerin in Isolated Rat Hepatocytes

     It has been proposed that organic nitrates such as glyceryl trinitrate (GTN), used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, act by producing nitric oxide (NO). However, the biochemical pathway for NO formation from GTN is not well understood. In the present study, we showed that nitrate formation from GTN, by isolated rat hepatocytes, was inhibited about 50% when cellular glutathione w...

Effects of fructose concentration on carbohydrate metabolism, heat production and substrate cycling in isolated rat hepatocytes.

1. Hepatocytes from starved rats were incubated with 5mm-glucose, labelled uniformly with (14)C and specifically with (3)H at positions 1, 2, 3 or 6, and with fructose at concentrations of 2.5, 7.5 or 25mm. 2. In the absence of other substrates only 1% of the radioactivity initially present in [U-(14)C]glucose appeared in the metabolic products, CO(2), lactate, pyruvate, amino acids and glycoge...
