title: [Disturbances in the regulation of phospholipid metabolism of the whole liver, mitochondria and microsomes in acute thioacetamide poisoning and the influcence of silymarin].
abstract: In the whole liver of rats, pretreated with 4% polyvinylpyrrolidone solution, 24 h after i.p. application of 300 mg thioacetamide/kg body weight, an increase of total lipids, triglycerides and phospholipids is observed, in the mitochondrial fraction phospholipid concentrations are decreased. At the same time, phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidyl-ethanolamine ratio is diminished in mitochondrial and microsomal fraction. After administration of [l-14C]-palmitate, in comparison with non-intoxicated animals, a statistically significant reduction of specific radioactivity of phosphatidylethanolamine could be observed in microsomal and mitochondrial fraction; specific radioactivities of total lipids, total phospholipids and phosphatidyl choline trend to diminution in the whole liver and in subcellular fractions. By prophylactic i.p. application of silymarin-N-methylglucamine salt (400 mg/kg body weight), dissolved in 4% polyvinylpyrrolidone solution, there is a normalization of altered microsomal phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylethanolamine ratio as well as an enhancement of diminished mitochondrial phosphatidylcholine concentration, while the reduction of specific radioactivities of phosphatidylethanolamine is partially abolished in the mitochondrial fraction.
