Activity changes of ATP synthase and adenylate kinase in rat-liver mitochondria during the early phase after burn injury.
Using succinate as a substrate, the activities of ATP synthase and adenylate kinase in liver mitochondria of male Sprague-Dawley rats 30 min after 20 per cent full skin thickness burns were increased in comparison with the sham burn rats, suggesting that these two enzymes might contribute to the increased rates of ATP formation and oxidative phosphorylation coupling during the early phase after burn injury.
