Tyrosine-amino transferase, an enzyme induced to the liver via glucocorticoids, caused clearly measurable activity rises in either sex, 24 hours after 1 and 2 applications.

The utility of the method is illustrated by the use of partially purified preparations of rat liver glutathione S-transferases and several prototypic substrates including iodomethane, iodoethane, dichlorvos, and methyl parathion.
Advantages of the method over other assays of S-alkyl transferase activity are discussed.

The level of 8-OH-2-deoxyguanosine in rat liver DNA was measured as an index of oxidative damage after treating rats for 10 days at a dose ranging from 0.75 to 10 mg/kg with a mixture of 15 pesticides (dithiocarbamate, benomyl, thiabendazole, diphenylamine, chlorthalonil, procimidone, methidathion, chlorpyrifos-ethyl, fenarimol, parathion-methyl, chlorpropham, parathion, vinclozolin, chlorfenvinphos, pirimiphos-ethyl) commonly found in foods of central Italy.
The administration of the pesticide mixture dose dependently reduced benzo (a) pyrene hydroxylase, N-demethylase activities, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, glutathione-S-transferase and thiol transferase activities in the liver.

For this purpose, we used an established HeLa cell line containing the chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT) gene under the control of the hsp70 promoter.
Some organochlorine compounds (chlorophenol derivatives, tetrachlorohydroquinone, 3, 4-dichloroaniline, ethyl parathion and 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene) induced a response, whereas other common halogenated pesticides or aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g. benzo (a) pyrene, 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, endosulfan, diuron, 4-nonylphenol) did not.

Reduced glutathion (GSH) content and glutathione S-transferase (GSH S-transferase) activity were investigated in developing toad embryos exposed to parathion, malathion, lindane and dieldrin.

It was found that at the final concentration of 1.5 mmol/L, MeISP can (1) result in an increase of leakage of intracellular enzymes, alanine amino-transferase (ALT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), beta-glucuronidase (beta-GDase) and acid phosphatase (AcP) to the medium in a dose-dependent fashion; (2) give rise to obvious plasma membrane blebbing; (3) rapidly deplete the intracellular GSH and (4) almost completely inhibit the protein synthesis and gluconeogenesis from sodium pyruvate.

An increase in the activity levels of the enzymes glutamic acid decarboxylase and 4-aminobutyrate-2-oxoglutarate-amino transferase in the cortex, brain stem and spinal cord of the CNS was found.

The most strongly pronounced rise was in activity of aspartate-amino transferase and was recorded from both sexes.

Organophosphate insecticide (parathion/diazinon) resistance in housefly (Musca domestica L.) is associated with the change in carboxylesterase activity.
In addition, we checked the malathion carboxylesterase (MCE), percent remaining activities in acetylcholinesterase (AChE), glutathion-S-transferase (GST), and general esterase activities in all 5 strains used in this study.

Exposure of 160 workers to a combination of pesticides (malathion, parathion, DDT and HCH) resulted in 73% of the workers showing toxic signs and symptoms.
Changes in the liver enzymes ornithine carbamyl transferase (OCT), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGTP), leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) and in immunoglobulin M (IgM) showed possible effects on liver and humoral immunity.
