Abstract
The activities of coproporphyrinogen oxidase, protoporphyrinogen oxidase and ferrochelatase in liver homogenates of iron-overloaded and acutely or chronically ethanol-treated rats were assayed by high performance liquid chromatographic methods. Decreased coproporphyrinogen oxidase activity was found in chronically carbonyliron-fed rats while the activities of protoporphyrinogen oxidase and ferrochelatase remained unchanged. Coproporphyrinogen oxidase and protoporphyrinogen oxidase activities in both chronically and acutely ethanol-treated animals were not significantly different from controls. In chronically ethanol-fed rats normal ferrochelatase activity was found.
