[The dynamics of the liver calcium-binding protein in golden hamsters with opisthorchiasis].

: By means of immunochemical methods a considerable increase in Ca(2+)-transporting glycoprotein (GP) in liver tissues of golden hamsters at early stages of opisthorchiasis has been established. On the 3rd day after the infection GP amount increases 6 fold, on the 7th day--15 fold. On the 14th day GP amount decreases but does not reach the control level. The control level is reached only on the 22nd day after the infection of animals. Ca(2+)-transporting GP belongs to the system of electrogenic transport of Ca2+ in mitochondria (MCh) and its increase in MCh of the liver is, apparently, the basis of destructive changes of these organelles.
