Abstract
Mitochondria were isolated from regenerating rat liver 12, 24 and 48 h after partial hepatectomy. The ''State 3'' and ''State 4'' respiratio n were measured in the presence of succinate. The P/O quotient and res piratory control index (RCI) were calculated. The experimental data sh owed that the partial uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation in regen erating liver mitochondria occurring in the early period of regenerati on is partly due to free fatty acids.
