[Is liver microsomal enzyme induction the cause of tolerance to barbiturates?].
In 12, 24 and 48 hours after a single injection of phenobarbital, barbital-sodium and pentabarbital-sodium in doses of 80 175 an 40 mg/kg respectively an increased synthesis of protein in the cell-free protein-synthetizing system and a rise in the level of cytochromes b5 and P-450 in the liver microsomes of female rats were noted. The maximal changes were registered following introduction of phenobarbital the inducing capacity of barbital-sodium and pentabarbital-sodium twice as low. With chronic introduction of the drugs the tolerance with respect to all of them develops at an equal rate, which excludes the dependence of this phenomenon upon the induction of microsomal metabolizing enzymes of the liver.
