Abstract
Chlorpromazine (CPZ) administration to rats (25 mg/kg ip) significantly stimulated (14C)-leucine incorporation to liver microsomal proteins, (14C)-orotic acid incorporation to liver RNA and (32P) incorporation to liver microsomal lipids. CPZ administration did not modify the decay of radioactivity of liver microsomal lipids prelabeled with (32P) or that of microsomal proteins prelabeled with [(14C)-guanidino]-arginine. Results suggest that CPZ administration stimulates protein, phospholipids and RNA synthesis but does not affect their degradation. The relation of these findings with CPZ preventive effects on CCl4-induced liver injury is discussed.
