[The effect of silybin-dihemisuccinate on regulation disorders in phospholipid metabolism in acute galactosamine intoxication in the rat]. 1975

H Schriewer, and J Lohmann, and H M Rauen

1. 24 h after application of 900 mg D-galactosamine/kg body weight, an increase of total lipids, triglycerides, phosphatidyl-choline and phosphatidic acid concentrations, and also a decrease of total phospholipids and phosphatidylethanolamine can be determined in the whole rat liver. After administration of [1-14C]-palmitate, specific radioactivity of phosphatidyl-choline is diminished without alteration of specific radioactivity of other lipid fractions. Prophylactic application of silybin-dihemisuccinate abolished completely decrease of phosphatidyl-ethanolamine and diminished increase of total lipids and triglyceride concentrations. 2. Specific radioactivity of total lipids in serum of galactosamine-intoxicated rats is enhanced, specific radioactivity of triglycerides and phospholipids is diminished, simultaneously, total lipids concentration is reduced. 3. In the microsomal fraction of galactosamine-injured livers, a decrease of specific radioactivity of total phospholipids and phosphatidyl-choline can be observed. Prophylactic administration of silybin abolishes diminution of specific radioactivity of phosphatidyl-choline partially. 4. Diminution of specific radioactivity of total lipids, total phospholipids and phosphatidyl-ethanolamine, induced by galactosamine intoxication in the mitochondrial fraction, is normalized by application of silybin. 5. Diminished triglyceride infiltration in siybin-treated rats may be based onnormalization of inhibited phosphatidyl-choline turnover.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008099	Liver	A large lobed glandular organ in the abdomen of vertebrates that is responsible for detoxification, metabolism, synthesis and storage of various substances.	Livers
D008297	Male		Males
D008862	Microsomes, Liver	Closed vesicles of fragmented endoplasmic reticulum created when liver cells or tissue are disrupted by homogenization. They may be smooth or rough.	Liver Microsomes,Liver Microsome,Microsome, Liver
D008930	Mitochondria, Liver	Mitochondria in hepatocytes. As in all mitochondria, there are an outer membrane and an inner membrane, together creating two separate mitochondrial compartments: the internal matrix space and a much narrower intermembrane space. In the liver mitochondrion, an estimated 67% of the total mitochondrial proteins is located in the matrix.
