title: Glutathione S-transferase activity in the liver in acute pancreatitis at various terms of disease and during treatment with inducers.
abstract: Glutathione S-transferase activity increased in rats with acute pancreatitis: 2.2 times on day 2, 2-fold on day 4, and 1.5 times on day 10. Inducers of microsomal enzymes aroclor 1254 and phenobarbital notably inhibited glutathione S-transferase activity in animals with experimental pancreatitis on days 2-4 of the disease (3.1-2.5 times in comparison with sham-operated induced animals). Hence, the activity of enzymes of phase II of liver xenobiotic metabolism is altered in acute pancreatitis.
