Alterations in activity of cholesterol esterases from lysosomal, microsomal and cytoplasmic cell fractions of rat liver tissue were studied under conditions of acute and chronic hypoxia and hyperoxia. Activity of the membrane-bound lysosomal and microsomal cholesterol esterases was decreased but the cytoplasmic enzyme was activated in acute hypoxia and hyperoxia. These data suggest that the enzymes, responsible for alterations in the ratio free cholesterol/cholesterol esters in cells, are dependent on the level of oxygen consumption.
