Abstract
The effects of oral prednisone on plasma and red blood cell cholinesterases have been studied in human volunteers. While the activity of plasma pseudocholinesterase is depressed by glucocorticoid administration, the activity of red blood cell true cholinesterase is not affected. Cortisol administration to rats, intraperitoneal or subcutaneous, inhibited liver pseudocholinesterase activity, indicating a possible depression of the enzyme protein synthesis.Entities:
