D-galactosamine induced changes in rat liver plasma membranes lipid composition and some enzyme activities

D-galactosamine induced changes in rat liver plasma membranes lipid composition and some enzyme activities

D H Petkova et al. Int J Biochem. 1987.

Abstract

The influence of D-galactosamine administration on rat liver plasma membranes lipid composition, fluidity and some enzyme activities was investigated. D-Galactosamine was found to induce an increase of the total phospholipids, the cholesterol level and membrane rigidity. In liver plasma membranes of D-galactosamine-treated rats the exogenous phospholipase A2 activity was enhanced about 2 fold, whereas the endogenous activity was slightly decreased. No alteration of the neutral sphingomyelinase activity was observed.
