[Action of O,N'-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane (O,N'-DDD) on adrenal cortical ATPase].

Problemy endokrinologii, 1978
The action of the inhibitor of the adrenal gland function of dogs--o,n'-DDD--on ATP-ases was studied experimentally. In a concentration of 0.2--1.0 mM o,n'-DDD inhibited the Na+, K+. Mg2+-ATP-ases of the homogenate, and also the mitochondrial and microsomal fractions of the dog adrenal cortex.

[Decrease in the intensity of the EPR cytochrome P-450, adrenodoxine and free radical signals in the adrenal cortex of dogs under the effect of o,p-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane].

Problemy endokrinologii, 1984
A study was made of the action of the adrenocorticolytic drug chloditane (o.p'-DDD) on the content of cytochrome P-450 adrenodoxine and free radicals in the dog adrenal cortex. After a single feeding of 50 mg/kg bw o.p'-DDD EPR signals with xi-factors 2.25, 1.94 and 2.00 reduced 30-40%.
