| Popis: | In rats, placental gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGTP) specific activity declined linearly during the last third of gestation. In contrast, the kidney enzyme activity progressively increased 15-fold. In the gut, peak activity was reached at mid-lactation (age 12 days). Hepatic GGTP levels were maximal during the foetal stage. Brain GGTP was negligible at birth and attained its highest specific activity at weaning. |
