[Diverse action of 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate and medroxyprogesterone acetate on the biosynthesis of collagen and cirrhogenous course of CC14-induced hepatic lesions in rats].

The administration of medroxyprogesterone acetate to rats did not induce rapidly progressing cirrhosis in livers damage by carbon tetrachloride, as had occurred after the administration of 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caprate. Even after two months' treatment with medroxyprogesterone acetate and CC14, the cirrhosis did not reach the levels obtained in a single month with the association of 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone and CC14.

Effect of monensin administration on rat liver glycogen content: preliminary hystological observations.

The action of monensin, an electroneutral Na/H antiport, has been studied on liver glycogen content of female rats. The results showed that monensin, when administered in vivo, is able to determine liver glycogen depletion, in agreement with the increase of glycemia and the decrease of insulinemia. Glycogen stores are reformed in 3-4 hours. Moreover, glycogen depletion is more evident in periportal areas, in agreement with "metabolic zonation" of liver carbohydrate metabolism.
