Abstract
Permafrost and methane hydrates are large, climate-sensitive old carbon reservoirs that have the potential to emit large quantities of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, as the Earth continues to warm. We present ice core isotopic measurements of methane (Δ14C, δ13C, and δD) from the last deglaciation, which is a partial analog for modern warming. Our results show that methane emissions from old carbon reservoirs in response to deglacial warming were small (<19 teragrams of methane per year, 95% confidence interval) and argue against similar methane emissions in response to future warming. Our results also indicate that methane emissions from biomass burning in the pre-Industrial Holocene were 22 to 56 teragrams of methane per year (95% confidence interval), which is comparable to today.

Abstract
Activity of oxidation enzymes of the pentosephosphate way (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49) and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.44), cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating oxaloacetate) (NADP+) (EC 1.1.1.40) and isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP+) (EC 1.1.1.42) as well as the content of microsomal cytochromes b5 and P-450 in the rat liver have been studied 24 hours after 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 intraperitoneal administrations of phenobarbital (4 mg per 100 g of the body weight). It is shown that the cytochrome P-450 content increases after a single administration of phenobarbital and then it gradually grows reaching its maximum after 4 administrations and falls after 5 administrations (though it remains high as compared to the control animals). The content of cytochrome b5 increases only after 4 administrations of phenobarbital and after 5th one it returns to the initial level. The content of microsomal gangliosides calculated per 1 mg of microsomal protein decreases after a single administration of phenobarbital and 5 days later it returns to the initial level. Activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase increases after a single administration of phenobarbital, that of malate dehydrogenase--after 3 administrations, 6--phosphogluconate-dehydrogenase--after 4 administrations of the preparation. The 5 administrations of phenobarbital makes activity of all the mentioned dehydrogenases return to the initial level. Activity of isocitrate dehydrogenase under given conditions of the experiment does not change.
