Action of drug conjugates on glucuronide biosynthesis

TL;DR: Digitonin-activated UDP glucuronyltransferase of rat liver microsomes was inhibited by sulphate esters of phenolphthalein and 4-methylumbelliferone, and the o -aminophenyl glucuronide synthesis in rat liver slices was inhibited irreversibly by inorganic sulphate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Uridine kinase molecular species and uridine uptake in some variants of rat hepatomas.

TL;DR: The results suggest a relationship between the UK form present and the rate uridine phosphorylation by the intact cells, and a clone of somatic hybrid cells that does not express form I indicates that p4 cells may lack a factor controlling the polymerization of form I.

Biochemische und pathophysiologische Aspekte der Hyperammoniämie

TL;DR: The ammonia-induced inhibition of the citric acid cycle caused by an α-ketoglutarate deficiency is one important reason for the neurotoxicity of ammonia, which is the main point in the pathogenesis of hepatic coma.

Effect of wounding on nucleotide pools inBidens pilosa L.

TL;DR: The calculation of AEC has shown that a very tight control in the level of ATP may be involved in response to wounding, and the levels of adenosine triphosphate, GTP, and non adenylic triph phosphates and adenylate energy charge after wounding are determined.

Eine einfache Technik der extrem schnellen Abkühlung größerer Gewebestücke

TL;DR: In this article, a pair of tongs are used to compress large tissue pieces and organs of animals to a thin layer and can thus be frozen in a fraction of a second.

Experimental hepatitis induced by d-galactosamine

TL;DR: Repeated intraperitoneal injections of d-galactosamine produce within 24–48 hours in rat livers alterations that closely resemble human viral hepatitis, indicating a high specificity of d -galactoamine.

The enzymatic transformation of uridine diphosphate glucose into a galactose derivative

TL;DR: It is concluded that the compound found with treatment of UDPG with an enzyme of S. fragilis is uridine diphosphate galactose, and the bearing of this finding on the mechanism of action of UDPG is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation of the coenzyme of the galactose phosphate-glucose phosphate transformation.

TL;DR: In the initial studies (5) it was found that a thermostable factor was required in the over-all Reactions II and III, which led eventually to the discovery and isolation of glucose diphosphate, which acts as a coenzyme in Reaction III.
