The Metabolism of Progesterone by Animal Tissues in Vitro. Sex and Species Differences in Conjugate Formation during the Metabolism of (4-14c)progesterone by Liver Homogenates.
1. Sex and species differences during the metabolism of [4-(14)C]progesterone by liver homogenates from rat, rabbit, guinea pig and hamster have been investigated. 2. Liver homogenate from male rat formed ;water-soluble' metabolites faster and in significantly larger amounts than did liver homogenate from female rat. About 65-70% of the added progesterone was conjugated as glucuronide by liver ...
متن کاملHormone-Induced Variation of Phosphatidate Phosphohydrolase Activity in Various Tissues of Pregnant Rats
Variations in phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (PAP) activity and triacylglycerol concentration were measured in pregnant and hormone-treated non-pregnant female rats. PAP activity in adipose tissue was elevated by 61% during pregnancy. The increase in the enzyme activity was paralleled with a rise in serum triacylglycerol concentration (44%). Estradiol injecting into non-pregnant rats increased ...
متن کاملTHE EFFECTS OF GLUCAGON, INSULIN AND S TEROID HORMONES ON PHOSPHATIDATE PHOSPHOHYDROLASE ACTIVITY IN RAT LIVERS
The effects of steroid hormones, glucagon and insulin on rat liver phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (PAP) activity were studied both in vitro and in vivo. Incubation of rat hepatocytes with each hormone showed that dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), progesterone and testosterone increase PAP activity by 44.6, 37 and 36.9%, respectively. Estradiol, however, decreased enzyme activity by 13.6% under...
متن کاملMICROSOME-MEDIATED BENZO[A]PYRENE-DNA BINDING AND INHIBITION BY CYTOSOLIC FRACTIONS FROM LIVER AND SKIN OF ADULT AND WEANLING RATS
Biotransformation of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) in the presence of microsomal fractions derived from liver and epiderm of adult and weanling rats was examined. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of age on the capacity of two organs in transformation of BaP. Subcellular fractions were prepared from skin and liver by ultracentrifugation and were used as the source of BaP metabolizing enzy...
متن کاملCrude Protein Fractions and in vitroGas Production of Alfalfa Silages Treated with Pistachio by-Products Extract
Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the crude protein fractionation, in vitro gas production and the biological effects of tannins in alfalfa silage treated with different levels of pistachio by-products (PB) extract. PB was soaked in water with a ratio of 1:5 (w/v) for 12 h. After filtering and concentrating, the crude extract was added to fresh alfalfa to a final concentration of 1%, 2...
