Abstract
The state of factors controlling the rate of catalase synthesis in the rat liver at posttranscription stages under normal conditions and during the development of a malignant tumor (2nd, 7th, and 14th days after inoculation of Pliss lymphosarcoma) was investigated. A simple method is suggested for determining the biological activity of two factors — activator (Fact) and inhibitor (Fin). The results showed that if Fact/Fin≥1, catalase synthesis is observed (2nd and 14th days after inoculation of the tumor), but if Fact/Fin<1, synthesis of the enzyme is completely suppressed (7th day after inoculation of the tumor).
