Turpentine induced inflammation has been shown to elevate liver sialyl-and
galactosyltransferase activities (Turchen, B., Jamieson, JC, Huebner, E., and van Caeseele,
L.(1977) Can. J. Zool. 55, 1567-1571; Lombart, C., Sturgess, J., and Schachter, H.(1980)
Biochem. Biophys. Acta 629, 1-12). We now report that serum sialyl-, but not
galactosyltransferase activities are significantly elevated in turpentine inflammation. A liver
slice system is used to demonstrate that liver releases large amounts of sialyltransferase …
