Effect of Common Bile Duct Ligation on Glyoxalase II Activity in Ethanol Intoxicated Rat Liver
주정 중독 흰쥐 간의 Glyoxalase Ⅱ 활성에 미치는 총담관 결찰의 영향

Abstract
To understand the biochemical background of alcohol hazards in hepatobiliary disease; the activities of the rat liver cytosolic and mitochondrial glyoxalase- II (GLO- II) were measured in cholestasis induced by common bile duct (CBD) ligation after chronic ethanol intoxication; and in cholestasis before acute ethanol intoxication. GLO-II activities in the rat's liver cytosol and mitochondria showed more decrease when CBD was ligated after chronic ethanol intoxication than that in the CBD ligation alone. On the other hand; when CBD was ligated after chronic ethanol intoxication; the value of Vmax of the liver cytosolic and mitochondrial GLO-II decreased significantly than that in the CBD was ligated alone. However; the values of Km of the liver cytosolic and mitochondrial GLO- Q did not change in the all experimental groups. Viewed from above results; when chronic ethanol intoxication is combined with cholestasis; GLO-n in the liver seems to be decreased its activity than that in cholestasis; and the cause of the decrease is thought to be decreased biosynthesis. Accordingly; this result will be the datum supporting that alcoholic drink to be enzymologically harmful in hepatobiliary disease.
Key Words: Ethanol intoxication, Cholestasis, Glyoxalase II
