Figure 2

31P NMR spectra of an isolated rat liver perfused at 37°C: (A) under initial 30 min-KHB perfusion; (B) after 15-min perfusion in presence of ethanol (10 mM) immediately following 2 min IAA (0.5 mM) perfusion. Major resonances were assigned to (a) phosphomonoesters, mainly sn-glycerol-3-phosphate; (b) phosphocholine; (c) intracellular inorganic phosphate (Pi); (d) glycerol 3 phosphoryl ethanolamine; (e) glycerol 3 phosphoryl choline; (f) nucleoside-5'-triphosphates (γNTP) and diphosphates (βNDP); (g) αNTP and αNDP; (h, i) nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, uridine 5' diphosphoglucose and derivatives; (j) βNTP. The external reference (methylene diphosphonic acid) is outside of the spectral window (18.40 ppm).
