Summary
The effect of spironolactone (SP) on p-nitrophenol (PNP) glucuronidations was studied in isolated rat hepatocytes with appropriate viability conditions. A significant increase of protein concentration and PNP glucuronidation was found in the hepatocytes from SP-treated rats. Increased enzyme activity apparently was related to the SP dose. The results favor the conclusion that SP may inuce PNP glucuronidation in the hepatocyte.
