Additional evidence for thiram-induced liver toxicity is provided by the observation that there was approximately 50% inhibition of the activity of hepatic microsomal benzphetamine N-demethylase with a concomitant decrease in the concentration of cytochrome P-450, an important component of the mixed-function oxidase system.

Furthermore, measurement of the activities of hepatic microsomal and serum enzymes at 5 hrs and 24 hrs following thiram treatment indicated that thiram caused significant loss of cytochrome P-450 and benzphetamine N-demethylase activity only at 24 hrs interval whereas there was significant elevation of sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH) and serum glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (SGOT) activity at 5 and 24 hrs after treatment.

The activities of drug-metabolizing enzymes (aminopyrine demethylase--NADH and NADPH-linked--and aniline hydroxylase) were found to increase with all three compounds in general.
