Liver UDP-glucuronyltransferase activity towards bilirubin was studied in a total of 88 human subjects, including foetuses, premature and full-term newborn babies, infants, children, and adults. Determination of very low enzyme activity was performed by high-pressure liquid chromatography. Prenatal and postnatal changes of the activity can be divided into four developmental phases, i.e. middle foetal, late foetal, neonatal and early infantile, and mature. The activities of the first three phases corresponded to about 0.1, 0.1-1 and 1-100%, respectively, of the mature-phase values (mean +/- S.D.: 1320 +/- 514 microgram/h per g of liver, n = 27).
在总共88名人类受试者中研究了肝脏对胆红素的UDP - 葡萄糖醛酸基转移酶活性,这些受试者包括胎儿、早产和足月新生儿、婴儿、儿童及成人。通过高压液相色谱法测定极低的酶活性。该活性的产前和产后变化可分为四个发育阶段,即胎儿中期、胎儿晚期、新生儿期和婴儿早期以及成熟期。前三个阶段的活性分别约为成熟期值(平均值±标准差:每克肝脏1320±514微克/小时,n = 27)的0.1%、0.1 - 1%和1 - 100%。
