title: [Pesticides and liver biochemistry].
abstract: The effects of various pesticides (lindane, binapacrile and parathion) on the content of cytochrome P450 and glutathione, and on the activity of lipoperoxidase, xanthine oxidase and transaminases (SGOT and SPGT) were examined. Other parameters, such as the relative liver mass and hepatocyte viability were also estimated. All the studied parameters in the liver homogenate and in hepatocytes were changed by binapacrile, whereas in blood only the glutathione level was altered. Lindane produced an effect on all the parameters. In hepatocytes it did not affect only the lipoperoxidase activity. In the blood it changed only the level of glutathione content. Parathion, in the liver homogenate, changed all of the parameters examined, whereas in hepatocytes only lipoperoxidase activity remained unchanged. In the blood parathion caused a slight increase in the sulphhaemoglobin level and decreased the glutathione content.
