Abstract
Intraperitoneal administration of 4-pentenoic acid (20 mg/kg/day for seven days or ten doses of 50 mg/kg with 4 h intervals) or acetylsalicylic acid (50 mg/kg 1 hour after single pyrogenal injection) to rats reproduced metabolic disorders characteristic of Reye's syndrome: hyperenzymemia, hyperbilirubinemia, decreased levels of ketone bodies and urea, hypoglycemia, hypoproteinemia, accumulation of ammonia and phenol, and acidosis. Necroses and microvesicula steatosis were found in the liver.
