Induction of cytosolic tyrosine aminotransferase by dexamethasone in organ culture of fetal human liver

Induction of cytosolic tyrosine aminotransferase by dexamethasone in organ culture of fetal human liver

S M Andersson. Early Hum Dev. 1982 Apr.

Abstract

Total tyrosine aminotransferase activity in organ culture of fetal human liver is increased by 347% after 15 h incubation with 2 micro M of dexamethasone. Isoelectric focusing reveals that the increased activity is due to induction of cytosolic tyrosine aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.5) while the activity of the nonspecific mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.1) remains unchanged.
