Complementation analysis of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I and II defects.

abstract：:Oxidant stress has been implicated as playing a role in the pathogenesis of cholestatic liver injury. The objective of this study was to determine whether the xanthine oxidase/xanthine dehydrogenase enzyme system was involved in this oxidant stress. Adult Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with the xanthine oxidase inhi...
