Purification of erythrocyte cytochrome P-450 from goat and chick.

Cytochrome P-450 has been purified from goat and chick erythrocytes and characterized. Goat erythrocyte cytochrome P-450 content was higher than that of chick erythrocytes cytochrome P-450. Elution profile of purified protein from DEAE-cellulose column showed a single peak. The catalytic activities of aminopyrine-N-demethylase and acetanilide hydroxylase were found to be higher in purified proteins. Molecular weight was determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Age dependent changes in human serum lipid peroxide levels in rural population around Ambajogai.

Serum lipid peroxide levels were estimated in 205 healthy human subjects. The serum lipid peroxide levels in terms of malondialdehyde/ml was 1.47 nmol in male subjects with 11-20 years and which rose to a peak 2.97 in subjects with 51-60 years. Male subjects exhibited significantly higher (P less than 0.01) values as compared to female subjects in whom this increase with age was not observed.

Alterations in hepatic drug metabolism and lipid peroxidation during administration of Baygon, a pesticide.

Biochemical studies during low- and high-dose administration of Baygon (a pesticide) to young male rats were performed. It was observed that the activities of drug-metabolizing enzymes were decreased even at a low dose of Baygon and the decrease was much more significant during high-dose injections. Lipid peroxidation was increased with a low dose and the increase was much more pronounced with a high dose. Besides these changes the animals showed physical changes such as salivation, fasciculations, etc. The presence of conjugated diene absorption patterns and malonaldehyde formation indicated the in vivo lipid peroxidation dut to Baygon administration. Toxic effects leading to death were noted when the animals were injected with a high dose of the pesticide, Baygon above 25 mg/kg.
