Galactose 1-phosphate (Gal-1-P) is the substrate of galactose 1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT), which is cytotoxic and has inhibitory effect on many enzymes in glucose metabolism pathway[1,2].Gal-1-P(1-16 mM;37℃;1h) can stimulated rat brain Na+,K+-ATPase[3].

Gal-1-P (5-10 mM) in culture medium for 7-14 days significantly decreased IGF-1, PDGF and FBS-stimulated DNA synthesis in Fibroblasts[4]. Various concentrations (1-16 mM) of galactose-1-phosphate (Gal-1-P) were preincubated with brain homogenates of suckling rats as well as with pure eel Electroforus electricus AChE at 37℃ for 1 h. Gal-1-P decreased gradually the enzyme activity reaching a plateau, when incubated with 8-16 mM. Gal-1-P can affect acetylcholine degradation acting directly on AChE molecule[5].
