Abstract
Summary
Activities of carbonic anhydrase (CA) and alkaline phosphatase (AP) were investigated in the lateral and dorsal lobes of dithizone-treated mature rats. Within 6 hours after treatment CA activity of the lateral lobe was significantly reduced. Recovery of CA activity was initiated at approximately 15 days post-injection. AP activity followed a course opposite to that of CA, being much higher in the damaged tissue. In dorsal prostate CA activity was not affected by dithizone. AP activity was increased slightly but returned to normal at the end of the experimental period.
