The developmental changes of enzymes involved in prostaglandin (PG) synthesis were investigated in rat skin from birth to 1.5 years old. In all stages of development, the activities of PG-synthesizing enzymes were found in 100,000 โข g supernatants of homogenates of rat skin, and PGD2 was the major P

โฆ Synopsis
Ultraviolet
(UV) radiation is one of the major risk factors of cataract (loss of eye-lens transparency),
The influence of UVB radiation ( 300 nm; 100 FW cm ') on the activity in IL?-month-old rats. A similar decrease in enzyme activities of HK and PFK is also observed upon UVB exposure of the intact rat lens. The photoinduced changes in energy metabolism may in turn have a bearing on lens transparency.
