Abstract
INOMATA, N., YOSHIDA, H., AOKI, Y., TSUNODA, M. and YAMAMOTO, M. Effects of Ethyl 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetate on Hepatic Peroxisomal Enzymes in Rats. Tohoku J. Exp. Med., 1991, 165 (1), 59-61-Effects of ethyl 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetate (MCPA) and clofibrate on the activities of hepatic lipid metabolizing enzymes in the peroxisomal fraction from rat liver were studied, and these drugs were found to potentiate the peroxisomal enzyme activity. The results imply that MCPA affects lipid metabolism as well as clofibrate.
