Abstract
Uroporphyrinogen oxidation by hepatic microsomes from chick embryos or mice pretreated with methylcholanthrene was increased by addition of iron-EDTA. This increase was partially prevented by catalase, mannitol, ketoconazole and piperonyl butoxide, whereas only ketoconazole and piperonyl butoxide inhibited the oxidation in the presence and absence of iron-EDTA. These data suggest that the oxidations of uroporphyrinogen in the presence and absence of added iron occur by different mechanisms.Entities:
