Abstract:
:Methods were developed for the determination of HMG CoA (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl CoA) reductase activity in subcellular fractions of intestinal mucosa and liver of Wistar strain rats. In the liver, reductase activity was located exclusively in the microsomal fraction. In the intestinal mucosa, activity was found in both mitochondrial and microsomal fractions of crypt cells but not of villi. The microsomal HMG CoA reductases of liver and intestinal mucosa had similar kinetic characteristics and pH optima. However, the activity of the hepatic enzyme differed with age and sex of the experimental animals while that of the intestinal crypt cells did not. Cholestyramine treatment enhanced the activity of the microsomal HMG CoA reductase in both liver and intestinal mucosa. Reductase activity of the intestinal crypt cells was elevated in both jejunum and ileum. The greatest stimulation, both relatively and absolutely, was observed in the distal half of the jejunum.
