dc.description.abstract | 1. 1.|In a previous study the administration of benzoate, [alpha]-naphthoate, diethyl-stilbestrol disulfate and various aromatic carboxylic acids to adrenalectomized rats was shown to increase hepatic tyrosine transaminase (-tyrosine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase, EC 2.6.1.5) levels several fold. The action of benzoate was strongly inhibited by the concurrent administration of puromycine or actinomcine D. In the present study, the administration of actinomycin D strongly inhibited the increase in tyrosine transminase activity caused by the administration of diethylstilbestrol disulfate or [alpha]-naphthoate to adrenalectomized rats. In this respect the effect of these aromatic acids resembles that of the glucocorticoids.2. 2.|To further compare the effects of cortisol and the aromatic acids in vivo, several other systems known to be sensitive to the glucocorticoids were examined. Cortisol adminisration, under the indicated conditions, significantly increased the hepatic levels of glycogen, tryptophan oxygenase (-tryptophan:oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.13.1.12), -amino acid oxidate (-amino acid:oxygen oxidoreductase (deaminating), EC 1.4.3.3), and -threonine dehydratase (-threonine hydro-lyase (deaminating), EC 4.2.1.16). Under equivalent conditions doses of diethylstilbestrol disulfate and benzoate that increased hepatic tyrosine transminase levels had no effect on hepatic glycogen and tryptophan oxygenase levels. Benzoate had no effect on hepatic -amino acid oxidase levels, but increase -threonine dehydratase levels. | en_US |
