Journal ArticleDOI

Human anti-endoplasmic reticulum autoantibodies appearing in a drug-induced hepatitis are directed against a human liver cytochrome P-450 that hydroxylates the drug.

TL;DR: It is shown that among the macromolecules present in human adult liver microsomes, one protein called cytochrome P-450-8 is specifically recognized by most sera of patients containing anti-LKM2 antibodies but not by control serum, suggesting a possible mechanism for the appearance of anti-organelle antibodies in a drug-induced hepatitis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The presence of modified nucleotides is required for cloverleaf folding of a human mitochondrial tRNA

TL;DR: It is concluded that modified nucleotides have a predominant role in canonical folding of human mitochondrial tRNALys and a major contribution of m1A9 in this process is argued.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infantile form of carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency with hepatomuscular symptoms and sudden death. Physiopathological approach to carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiencies.

TL;DR: A CPT II deficiency associating hypoketotic hypoglycemia, high plasma creatine kinase level, heart beat disorders, and sudden death in a 3-mo-old boy is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytochrome P-450 Monooxygenase Activities in Human and Rat Liver Microsomes

TL;DR: The monooxygenase activities, the sensitivity to in vitro alpha-naphthoflavone and metyrapone, the results of steroid metabolism, and slab gel electrophoresis are strong indications for multiplicity of human liver cytochrome P-450.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for phosgene formation during liver microsomal oxidation of chloroform.

TL;DR: When aerobically incubated with liver microsomes and NADPH, chloroform produces a stable adduct with cysteine as a nucleophilic trapping agent that was identified by thin layer chromatography, gas-liquid chromatography and combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry as the reaction product of Cysteine with phosgene.
