Adaptation of hepatic enzyme activities to methionine excess.

چکیده
Two groups of adult male rats 8 weeks old were fed a 10 p. 100 protein (casein) diet with or without 2 p. 100 methionine. After 8 rats in each group were killed at 10 a.m. on experimental days 1, 2, 4, 8 and 21, we studied the profiles of plasma non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and of the hepatic activities of pyruvate kinase (PK), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), malic

Preliminary Report of NAD+-Dependent Amino Acid Dehydrogenase Producing Bacteria Isolated from Soil
Amino acid dehydrogenases (L-amino acid: oxidoreductase deaminating EC 1.4.1.X) are members of the wider superfamily of oxidoreductases that catalyze the reversible oxidative deamination of an amino acid to its keto acid and ammonia with the concomitant reduction of either NAD+, NADP+ or FAD. These enzymes have been received much attention as biocatalysts for use in biosensors or diagnostic kit...
متن کاملFatty liver is associated with reduced SIRT3 activity and mitochondrial protein hyperacetylation.
Acetylation has recently emerged as an important mechanism for controlling a broad array of proteins mediating cellular adaptation to metabolic fuels. Acetylation is governed, in part, by SIRTs (sirtuins), class III NAD(+)-dependent deacetylases that regulate lipid and glucose metabolism in liver during fasting and aging. However, the role of acetylation or SIRTs in pathogenic hepatic fuel meta...
متن کاملVARIATIONS BY EPINEPHRINE OF HEPATIC AND SERUM AMINOTRANSFERASES AND LACTATE DEHYDROGENASE IN THE RAT
Incubation of rat hepatocytes with epinephrine inhibited alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (80%) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (53%) activities with no effect on lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity. Injection of epinephrine caused a progressive increase with time in hepatic LDH activity, being 52% at 24 h. Preinjection with propranolol eliminated the hormone effect and caused further ...
متن کاملLIVER DISEASE Effect of ursodeoxycholic acid on methionine adenosyltransferase activity and hepatic glutathione metabolism in rats
Background and aims: Both bile salts and glutathione participate in the generation of canalicular bile flow. In this work, we have investigated the effect of different bile salts on hepatic glutathione metabolism. Methods: Using the isolated and perfused rat liver, we studied hepatic glutathione content, and metabolism and catabolism of this compound in livers perfused with taurocholate, ursode...

To study the effects of water stress on compatibility metabolites and the antioxidant enzyme activities of wheat variety trial a factorial experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design in 1393. The experiment consisted of three levels of stress (85, 60 and 35% of field capacity) and five varieties of wheat (Orom, Zarea, Mihan, ZSZOBKAYKA, JS3l7G217,) Analysis of variance showed, Pr...
