ABSTRACT
The alterations in the serum lipolytic activity of mice were studied under Uranyl nitrate (UN) intoxication. The lipemia produced as a result of UN intoxication was probed studying the alterations in the serum triacyl-glycerol-hydrolase (EC 3.1.1.3) activity. After an intraperitoneal injection of UN (10 mg/kg and 25 mg/kg), triacyl-glycerol-hydrolase (TAGH) activity was considerably enhanced. In the initiation phase the elevation in the activity was observed to be higher than the elevation in the maintenance phase of acute UN toxicity. The possible reasons for the elevation in the TAGH activity and its role under such intoxication is discussed.
