Adenylate Cyclase activity is increased in the liver of animals treated with CCl4 (250 ul/100g body wt.) after 30 min. The maximum increase is observed 2 hours after administration of the hepatotoxin. Whereas, 3',5'-nucleotidephosphodiesterase decreases significantly throughout all the experiments. Our results present evidence that there is relationship between Adenylate Cyclase and Phosphodiesterase activity and suggest that intracellular calcium ion may mediate a regulation of the synthesis and degradation of cyclic nucleotides. It is difficult to determine the exact role Ca2+ plays in regulating these two opposing reactions. Thus, in the near future the work in this laboratory will be to define carefully the effects of the CCl4 on ions on these two systems.

D015105 3',5'-Cyclic-AMP Phosphodiesterases Enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of CYCLIC AMP to form adenosine 5'-phosphate. The enzymes are widely distributed in animal tissue and control the level of intracellular cyclic AMP.
