title: Effect of oral ethanol administration on choline and ethanolamine phosphorylating activities in liver and brain of mice.
abstract: The effect of intake of ethanol on choline- and ethanolamine kinase activities in liver and brain tissues of mice was studied over a period of 31 days. With a single dose of ethanol there was an initial slight increase in hepatic kinase activity, while brain kinase activity decreased. The activities returned to the normal level after 21 h. Intragastric intubation of 1 ml of 30% aqueous ethanol daily for 1 month to mice led to a decrease in activity of both enzymes in both tissues.
