1. Generally, this condition persists for only a short period as the enzyme system usually becomes functional within several days after birth. 2. In newborns, especially premature infants, this liver enzyme system is not fully developed or functional. 3. One in five apparently has a potential problem, considering this one enzyme system alone. 4. Since calcium carbamide does not inhibit these enzyme systems, it has fewer side effects and fewer drug interactions than disulfiram. 5. Bismuth, because of its effects on enzyme systems in bacteria, may have a therapeutic effect in colitis through this mechanism. 6. At least three hepatic enzyme systems are capable of catalysing the oxidation of alcohol to acetaldehyde, although under normal conditions only alcohol dehydrogenase is important. 7. According to Garvey, antifreeze causes kidney failure, but vodka inhibits the enzyme system in the liver that creates the poison out of antifreeze. 8. The enzyme system, a doctor testified, was overwhelmed by the presence of all the different drugs. 9. The problem has been compounded in recent years with the advance of newer medicines, many of which have subtle effects on different enzyme systems in the body. 10. Type II diabetics tend to have normal insulin genes, receptors and enzyme systems, Goldfine said. |
