Attempts to induce hepatic uridine diphosphate glucuronyl transferase in genetically deficient Gunn rats by grafting of normal liver tissue.
TL;DR: Liver from normal Wistar rats was grafted into the liver of homozygous Gunn rats which are deficient in UDP glucuronyl transferase (UDPGT) (bilirubin) activity, and after 3 months, UDPGT activity remained absent in microsomal suspensions of liver from recipient rats and no bilirUBin glucuronide was detected in their bile.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bilirubin Metabolism: Research Aspects
TL;DR: The mechanisms through which bilirubin is taken up and conjugated by the liver have become better understood in recent years, partly because specialized protein receptors have been identified and partly because mutant animals having liver impairments similar to some found in man are available.

Celiac-sprue Syndrome: Etiologic Considerations
TL;DR: Preliminary data suggest γGTP may be required to hydrolyze the γ glutamyl moieties in gluten and that a deficiency of this enzyme may result in the clinical entity of celiac-sprue.
