چکیده

Administration of nickel carbonyl to rats inhibited RNA synthesis by a chromatin-RNA polymerase complex prepared from lysed hepatic nuclei. Rats were killed 6 hr after i.v. administration of Ni(CO)4 in LDSO dosage (2.2 mg Ni/100 g body weight). The rate of RNA synthesis by the chromatinRNA polymerase complex from Ni(CO)4-treated rats averaged 0.16 (S.E. = ±0.02, N = 18) ¿/mole cytidine triphosphate-3 H/10 min/g DNA (controls = 0.33 ±0.03, N =

before sacrifice. The nickel carbonyl was injected into a tail vein by means of a 25 @zl Hamilton syringe, as previously de scribed (6, 7). For induction of RNA polymerase, the rats were given phenobarbital (10 mg/100 gm, i.p.) 20 hr before sacrifice. The rats were killed by guillotine and were exsangui nated. The livers were excised and washed in cold 0.32 M sucrose solution. Portions of the l...

Inhibition of rat liver RNA polymerases by action of the methylating agents dimethylnitrosamine in vivo and methyl methanesulfonate in vitro.

Dimethylnitrosamine maximally inhibits rat liver nuclear RNA synthesis by 50% at a dose of 40 mg/kg of body weight. The inhibition develops during the first 4 hr and persists through the 12th hr. All parenchymal cells of the lever lobule seem to be affected. The decreased RNA synthesis can be accounted for entirely by an inhibition of the RNA polymerase activities quantitatively solubilized and...

The effect of aflatoxin B 1 on normal and cortisol-stimulated rat liver ribonucleic acid synthesis.

1. Aflatoxin B(1), administered in vivo, inhibits the incorporation of [(14)C]orotic acid in vivo into rat liver nuclei, and also inhibits both Mg(2+)- and Mn(2+)-dependent RNA polymerase activities in nuclei assayed in vitro. 2. Aflatoxin B(1) inhibits the cortisol-induced increase in incorporation of [(14)C]leucine in vivo, but does not affect the control value of this activity. 3. Aflatoxin ...

Nickel carbonyl inhibition of cortisone induction of hepatic tryptophan pyrrolase.

Administration of nickel carbonyl to rats by intravenous in jection (2 mg Ni/100 gm body weight) inhibited the induction of hepatic tryptophan pyrrolase by cortisone but not by tryptophan. Cortisone induction was impaired on the day after admin istration of nickel carbonyl. It reached a minimum at 2 days and remained diminished for 5 days. The average activity of hepatic tryptophan pyrrolase in...
