This action is completely suppressed by ribonucleic acid- or protein-synthesis inhibitors such as actinomycin D, puromycin aminonucleoside and cycloheximide, and only partially by 6-mercaptopurine or chloramphenicol. These metabolic inhibitors are incapable in themselves of influencing either the blood concentration of pentobarbital or the depth of anesthesia. The above findings are consistent with the view that induction of drug-metabolizing enzymes is involved in the resistance-increasing effect of spironolactone or ethylestrenol against various compounds. {\textcopyright} 1970 by The Williams \& Wilkins Co.}, issn = {0022-3565}, URL = {https://jpet.aspetjournals.org/content/174/3/473}, eprint = {https://jpet.aspetjournals.org/content/174/3/473.full.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics} }
