title: Diurnal changes in succinate and D-3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase activities of rat liver mitochondria after chronic alcohol consumption and withdrawal.
abstract: 1. The succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and D-3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH) activities were measured over a 24-hr period in rat liver mitochondria after chronic alcohol ingestion and withdrawal. 2. The diurnal patterns of both the enzyme activities were shown to change after alcohol consumption, with 64-66% decrease in the daily mean levels. 3. The diurnal rhythms of the SDH and HBDH activities are partially restored 24-72 hr after alcohol withdrawal. 4. There was no correlation between changes in both the enzyme activities and the NAD+/NADH ratio of liver mitochondria from control, ethanol-fed and withdrawn rats over the day.
