Wpływ związków fluoru na metabolizm erytrocytów

M. Suska

Abstract

The molecular mechanism for regulating nucleotide contents depends on the activity of numerous enzymes during glycolysis, pentose cycle and oxidation-reduction system. Special attention was paid to the consequences of indirect effects of fluorine on ATP, ADP and AMP contents, nucleotide pool, energetic charge and the amount of 2,3 DPG. The effects of fluorine on ATP-ase activity are also described. Med Pr 2001; 52; 2; 135-138.
