Abstract

Incubation of intact liver mitochondria and of mitochondria fragmented by ultrasound for 30 min at 37°C in isolation medium with cholesterol in a concentration of 2×10−3 M leads to the activation of hexokinase, malate dehydrogenase, and glutamate dehydrogenase and inhibits the activity of β-hydroxybutyrate, glycerophosphate, and lactate dehydrogenases. The effect is greater on enzymes of the intact mitochondria.
