Abstract
The plasma half-life of beta-galactosidase in rat was about 1.5 min. Ten minutes after in vivo injection, 45% of the enzyme was recovered in liver, with hepatocytes and endothelial cells as the predominant cell types responsible for uptake. In vitro uptake of beta-galactosidase in hepatocytes and nonparenchymal liver cells was saturable, Ca2+-dependent and it could be partly inhibited by mannose or alpha-methyl-mannoside.Entities:
