title: [Na+, K+-ATPase activity and serotonin transport in the rat brain synaptosomes fractions after acute 1,2-dichloroethane intoxication and nicotinamide administration].
abstract: Alterations of Na+,K+-ATPase activity and serotoninergic system functioning were investigated in brain synaptosomes fractions of rats under experimental acute 1,2-dichloroethane (DChE) intoxication. It was shown that Na+,K+-ATPase activity was markedly increased (by 41,8%) in a period of 24 h after DChE intoxication and decreased (by 27%) after 48 h intoxication. The level of [2-14C]-serotonin uptake by synaptosomes was progressively diminished after 24 and 48 h after DChE injection whereas the activity of monoamine uptake proved to be unchanged. Nicotinamide (200 mg/kg of body weight) was administered to rats subjected to DChE 1, 24 and 36 h after poisoning. The treatment of rats with nicotinamide resulted in some normalization of brain synaptosomal Na+, K+-ATPase activity and serotonin uptake controlled at 48 h after DChE intoxication.
