Summary
When rats were injected with a thiamine disulfide derivative, the content of thiamine triphosphate (TTP) in the liver doubled within 3 h after a preceeding rise in thiamine pyrophosphate; it then returned to the basal level within the next 3h, indicating a net increase of TTP in vivo and its rapid turnover.
