“ Actinomycin D (1.25 mg/kg, ip) prevented the increase in hepatic MT produced by ethanol , whereas inhibition of ethanol oxidation by pyrazole (150 mg/kg, ip) did not prevent the induction of hepatic MT.”

“However, the stimulation of hepatic ODC activity by ethanol was suppressed by actinomycin D or cycloheximide, indicating that the enhancement is attributable to the synthesis of new enzyme protein.”

“The subsequent enhancement of the enzyme activity by ethanol is not associated with stabilization of the enzyme, but is sensitive to actinomycin D and cycloheximide.”
“ Ethanol increased opioid receptor expression in NG108-15 cells treated with actinomycin D , but not cycloheximide; hence, normal protein synthesis, but not DNA transcription, may be required for this response.”
