[Cytochrome P-450 dependent enzymatic activity in the liver of patients with porphyria cutanea tarda (author's transl)].
In the liver of 12 patients with porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) the following parameters were measured: protein-content, NADPH-cytochrome c-reductase, 7-ethoxycoumarin-deethylase. The results were compared with the findings of patients with chronic liver disease (chronic hepatitis or cirrhosis) and patients without any liver affection. In addition the in vitro inhibition of 7-ethoxycoumarin-deethylase by metyrapone (phenobarbital induced cytochrome P-450) or naphthoflavone (benzo[a]pyrene induced cytochrome P-448) was estimated. No differences were found between the various groups. It is assumed that the induction of the mixed function monooxygenases is not an essential condition for the development or the persistence of the human porphyria cutanea tarda.
