  • Title: Inhibition by polyhalogenated hydrocarbons (PHHC) of ATPases in plasma membranes of parenchymal liver cells.
    Author: Rufeger U, Frimmer M.
    Journal: Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol; 1976 May; 293(2):187-90. PubMed ID: 183153.
    Abstract:
    Suspensions of freshly prepared plasma membranes from rat livers were equilibrated with defined mixtures of air with polyhalogenated hydro-carbons (PHHC) at 37 degrees C. During the exposition enzymatic degradation of ATP was inhibited by carbon tetrachloride, chloroform and halothane in a dose-dependent manner. On a molar basis carbon tetrachloride was 5 times more effective than chloroform and halothane. The inhibition was partially reversible. Diethyldithiocarbamate, an agent protecting animals against carbon tetrachloride, was ineffective in this assay.
