title: Gentamicin administered in vivo reduces protein synthesis in microsomes subsequently isolated from rat kidneys but not from rat brains.
abstract: Gentamicin injected in vivo, in doses equivalent to those used therapeutically in humans, produced a decrease in the protein synthesizing capacity of microsomes subsequently isolated from rat kidneys, but not of microsomes isolated from rat whole brains. The decreases in eukaryotic cell protein synthesis observed following in-vivo administration of gentamicin were similar to those observed following the addition of gentamicin to microsomes in vitro.
