[The effect of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) on membrane permeability in the perfused rat liver].

S-adenosilmethionine is present in most human tissues and is an important factor for transmethylation, transulphuration and aminopropylation reactions. The compound improves the biological, morphological and histochemical aspects of rat liver following CCl4 intossication. At the same time has been successfully used during chronic liver disease in man. With the aim to better clarify the action mechanism of SAMe some aspects concerning its effects on cell permeability in rat liver, by using the perfusion technique, have been investigated. In particular the capacity of this compound to prevent the enzymatic loss (GPT and GOT) during liver perfusion has been studied. 30 perfusions without SAMe, as control, and 6 by infusing 2 mg of compound during the perfusion time have been accomplished. Varing the perfusion time from 0 to 120 min it has been observed that at any time the presence of the SAMe reduced by about 50% the loss of GOT. Similarly the activity of GPT ranging from 2 to 6 mU/ml indicate that no appreciable enzyme output occurs in presence of SAMe.

[Study of the antidepressive effects of a biological transmethylating agent (S-adenosyl-methione or SAM)].

A research has been made in monotherapy and double blind in order to study the antidepressive effects of S-adenosil-L-methionine (SAMe) on homogeneous groups of patients suffering from relapsing endogenous depression out responding to tryciclique tymoleptiques or suffering from neurotic depression. In this last case the drug in question was being studied against amytriptiline. The antidepressive effects of SAMe have been evident and statistically highly interesting, precocious, free from collateral effects and maniacal rebounds. The sample positive effects were noticed also in those patients not responding to tryclique tymoleptiques. Any biochemical mechanism following the central action of SAMe are being discussed.
