Abstract:
Mouse liver and kidney glucose-6-phosphatase levels were found to be decreased 24 h after administration of various doses of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) when compared to controls. Liver glucose-6-phosphatase levels were always decreased to a greater extent than the kidney enzyme in mice given the same amount of CCl4. Administration of p,p'-1,1,1,-trichloro-2,2-bis (p-chlorophenyl) ethane (p,p'-DDT) to mice did not significantly alter the glucose-6-phosphatase levels of liver or kidney.
