The effect of galactosamine on hepatic drug metabolizing activities was examined in rats. In the microsomal fraction, the contents of cytochrome P-450 (P-450) and cytochrome b5 (b5) and the activity of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase (reductase) were examined for 7 days after galactosamine administration. In addition, substrate metabolizing activities in damaged microsomes were examined using four substrates: aminopyrine, aniline, benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P) and 7-ethoxycoumarine (7-EC). The contents of P-450 and b5 and the activity of reductase showed a minimal value after 3 days of galactosamine administration and then gradually increased, reaching to the control level after 7 days. All four substrate metabolizing activities showed a similar response as the content of P-450, but the decrement among the four activities was not uniform. The activities of B(a)P hydroxylation and 7-EC deethylation were more impared than those of aminopyrine demethylation and aniline hydroxylation. This nonuniformity was clear on the activity based on P-450. This result suggested that galactosamine disturbed the population of multiple P-450 subtypes, and each P-450 subtype was damaged to the various extent by galactosamine administration.
