Abstract
Triamcinoline acetonide (10 mg per kg of body weight a day) was administered to rabbit fed on a laboratory chow diet. The content of flavins in liver but not in kidney, muscle and brain started to decrease 24 h after a single dose. The activities of enzymes in the liver were determined: the activities of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, lipoamide dehydrogenase (NADH:lipoamide oxidoreductase EC 1.6.4.3), NADH dehydrogenase (NADH : (acceptor) oxidoreductase EC 1.6.99.3) and D-amino acid oxidase (D-amino acid: oxygen oxidoreductase (deaminating) EC 1.4.3.3) were decreased but those of succinate dehydrogenase (succinate : (acceptor) oxidoreductase EC 1.3.99.1) and xanthine oxidase (xanthine : oxygen oxidoreductase EC 1.2.3.2) remained unchanged. The activities of enzymes in the kidney, however, remained unchanged except the decrease in the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex.
