Time course of liver ATP content throughout the entire protocol perfusion. Simultaneous inhibition of glycolytic ATP synthesis by IAA (0.5 mmol/L, 2 min) and of ATP mitochondrial synthesis by KCN (2.5 mmol/L, 10 min) for two typical experiments performed in presence of (A) Krebs-Henseleit Buffer and (B) butyrate (3 mmol/L). The results are expressed as percent of ATP content, the 100% value being at the beginning of KHB perfusion (2.60 ± 0.05 μmol/g liver wet weight).
