Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine in rats, a liver portacaval shunt causes a marked decrease in glutamine synthetase activity and an increase in ornithine aminotransferase activity. The glutamine synthetase and ornithine aminotransferase proteins maintain their location in the perivenous cells, indicating that there is no generalized loss of perivenous hepatocytes, but rather, there is a significant alteration in the expression of these proteins and hence metabolism in this cell population Rattus norvegicus
