title: Stimulation of adenylate deaminase activity by serotonin.
abstract: After a single intraperitoneal injection of serotonin into rats adenylate deaminase activity in the mitochondrial fraction of the liver was stimulated. The conditions under which a twofold increase in the deamination of AMP occurred, after serotonin administration,were determined. Preliminary blocking of monamine oxidase activity did not prevent this effect of serotonin.
