Influence of family history of hypertension on insulin sensitivity in lean and obese hypertensive subjects.

abstract：:Activities of urea cycle enzymes were measured in the liver of starved rats 12 and 48 h after bilateral nephrectomy. Control experiments (sham-operated, starved rats) revealed that the activities of only two enzymes of the cycle are altered in the uraemic state: argininosuccinic acid synthetase (EC 6.3.4.5.), which is...
