Abstract excerpt
The Gunn rat is a mutant strain of Wistar rat which has unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia as a result of the absence of hepatic UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UDPGT) activity toward bilirubin. The Gunn rat is also deficient in UDPGT activities toward phenol substrates, and also toward digitoxigenin-monodigitoxiside. We have demonstrated that the defect of the isoenzyme for 4-nitrophenol (4NP) in Gunn rat liver arises...
