EXPERIMENTAL EXAMINATION OF THE MECHANISM OF PYRAMIDON EFFECT: III. EFFECT OF HIGH PYRAMIDON DOSES ON THE GLUTAMIC ACID–OXALOACETIC ACID TRANSAMINASE ACTIVITY IN SERUM

Abstract
In five rabbits, the changes of glutamic acid – oxaloacetic acid transaminase (SGOT) activity in serum were examined after a Pyramidon treatment in which 75% of the single lethal dose was given for 5 days, divided in three doses. Depending on the individual sensitivity, SGOT activity became from 3 to 8 times higher. This increase appeared to be a result of extensive renal lesions.
