Abstract: | A model of Gauchers disease was produced through the administration of conduritol B-expoxide. Tissue levels of glucosylceramide were elevated in the experimental animals. The activity of β-glucosidase in homogenates of brain, liver, and spleen was reduced 93% in the treated animals. Six other lysosomal hydrolases measured were uneffected. |
