摘要: A Bolivian population of squirrel monkeys, Saimiri sciureus, exhibits several features Gilbert's syndrome in man, and is proposed as a nonhuman primate model the condition. The was found to have higher fasting (40.6 ± 2.7 μM; mean S.E.) postcibal (9.9 0.9 μM) plasma unconjugated bilirubin concentrations (p < 0.001) than closely related Brazilian (fasting 5.5 0.7 μM); (2.4 μM). After intravenous administration [3H]bilirubin tracer dose or at 3.4 μmoles per kg body weight, there delayed clearance monkeys. Hepatic UDP-glucuronyl transferase activity for (164 25 nmoles 30 min gm liver) biliary diglucuronide monoglucuronide ratios (2.9 0.2) were lower monkeys Brazilians (421 36 liver-p 0.01 4.1 0.1–p 0.02, respectively). cytosol glutathione-S-transferase B (ligandin) levels similar two populations. phenobarbital therapy, (11.1 (5.3 1 significantly reduced 0.001).
