VARIATIONS BY EPINEPHRINE OF HEPATIC AND SERUM AMINOTRANSFERASES AND LACTATE DEHYDROGENASE IN THE RAT
Incubation of rat hepatocytes with epinephrine inhibited alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (80%) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (53%) activities with no effect on lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity. Injection of epinephrine caused a progressive increase with time in hepatic LDH activity, being 52% at 24 h. Preinjection with propranolol eliminated the hormone effect and caused further ...
متن کاملD-Mannitol 1-phosphate dehydrogenase and D-sorbitol 6-phosphate dehydrogenase in Aerobacter aerogenes.
n-Mannitol has been used as a carbon source for the growth of many microorganisms. Some bacteria contain diphosphopyridine nucleotide-dependent dehydrogenases that will oxidize n-mannitol to n-fructose at the nonphosphorylated level (2-5). On the other hand, Wolff and Kaplan (6, 7) have reported the presence of a diphosphopyridine nucleotide-dependent n-mannitol l-phosphate dehydrogenase that o...
متن کاملRecommended nomenclature for the vertebrate alcohol dehydrogenase gene family.
The alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) gene family encodes enzymes that metabolize a wide variety of substrates, including ethanol, retinol, other aliphatic alcohols, hydroxysteroids, and lipid peroxidation products. Studies on 19 vertebrate animals have identified ADH orthologs across several species, and this has now led to questions of how best to name ADH proteins and genes. Seven distinct classes...

متن کاملSorbitol Dehydrogenase Activity in Diabetes Mellitus and Cataract Patients
Accumulation of sorbitol in the pathogenesis of cataract in susceptible subjects has long been an issue. Sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH) activity in 25 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients and 15 patients having cataract was investigated using 10 subjects without diabetes or cataract as the control. Results of fasting plasma glucose assay done on the DM patients showed a mean range of 64 – 144mg/dl in ...
