[Activity of NADPH-dependent monooxygenase hydroxylating system of rat liver under the effect of tetramethylthiuramdisulfide].

Changes in the activity of a NADPH-dependent monooxygenase system of the rat liver are studied under the effect of tetramethylthiuramdisulphide. Under these conditions aniline hydroxylation is shown to be inhibited to a higher extent than amidopyrine demethylation. Besides a decrease in the level of cytochrome P-450, the central component of the microsomal system of hydroxylation, there appears cytochrome P-420--an inactivated form of cytochrome P-450.
