Abstract
|
|
|
To evaluate the effect of cyclohexane(CH) treatment on the liver cytochrome P-450 dependent aniline hydroxylase(CYPdAH) activity in alcohol-pretreated animals, CH( 1.56 g/kg body weight) was intraperitoneally administered to Sprague-Dawley male mts, which had been drunk 15% alcohol in distilled water for 1,3 and 6 weeks. CH was injected to rats 4 times every other day and the animals were sacrificed at 24 hours after injection of CH. In the alcohol-pretreated mts, liver injuries were not demonstrated on the basis of the liver weight per body weight, the levels of serum alanine aminotransferase and hepatic microsomal glucose-6-phosphatase activities. By the CH treatment, alcohol-pretreated animals showed the significantly increased activity of hepatic microsomal CYPdAH. Concomitantly V max value in CYPdAH was more increased. whereas KM value more decreased in alcohol-pretreated animals by the treatment of CH. In conclusion. the increasing cause of microsomal CYPdAH in CH-treated mts pretreated with alcohol may be due to induction of enzyme protein in rat liver.
