  • Title: Increased phospholipid methylation in the myocardium of alcoholic rats.
    Author: Prasad C, Edwards RM.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1983 Mar 16; 111(2):710-6. PubMed ID: 6220708.
    Abstract:
    Phospholipid methyltransferase activity is unevenly distributed throughout the contractile and the specialized regions of rat heart. Chronic alcohol treatment stimulated the incorporation of [3H-methyl]-methionine but not [3H-methyl]-choline into phosphatidylcholine by left ventricular slices. The increase in the incorporation of [3H-methyl]-group from [3H-methyl]-methionine into phosphatidylcholine was due to an increase in phospholipid methyltransferase activity.
