Biotin as a regulator of some haematic parameters and of DNA-content of the liver of old rats

F Petrelli et al. Experientia. .

Abstract

Biotin administration to old rats (28 months) causes in the blood an increase of ATP, glucose, triglycerides, alkaline phosphatase and a decrease of cholesterol and acid phosphatase; in the liver DNA and electrostatic interactions between DNA and histones are increased. Such parameters come within the values shown by adult rats.
