Liver glycogen content and activity of several hepatic enzymes in repeatedly immobilized rats

Liver glycogen content and activity of several hepatic enzymes in repeatedly immobilized rats. Acta Physiol. Pol., 1978, 29 (1): 55-60. In adult, male rats subjected to immobilization for 2.5 h daily, on the 7th day, 24 h after a sixth trial, an increased activity of the liver aspartate aminotransferase was found as shown by comparing their data with those of normally fed controls and also of the animals pair fed to the immobilized. Moreover, a net increasing effect of daily immobilization on the liver glycogen content was described.
