Abstract
The effect of intravenous administeration of high dose taurocholate on phenylacetyltransferase (PAT) activity was studied in rat liver. PAT activity; and it’s Km and Vmax values were determined in the liver cytosolic; mitochondrial and microsomal fractions isolated from the common bile duct (CBD) ligated rats; which were injected with taurocholic acid (TCA); The activities of liver cytosolic; mitochondrial and microsomal PAT as well as their Vmax values were found to be significantly increased in the CBD ligation plus TCA injected group than in the control group; such as CBD ligation alone group. However; their Km values in the experimental group did not vary. On the other hand; these hepatic enzyme activities did not change in the CBD ligation plus tauroursodeoxycholic acid injected group. Therefore; the above results indicate that TCA stimulates biosynthesis of the PAT in the liver
Key Words: Common bile duct ligation, Phenylacetyltransferase, Taurocholic acid
