The development of experimental rhachitis in rats is accompanied by a decrease in the dihydroxyacetonephosphate, glyceraldehyde-phosphate concentrations and by an increase in pyruvate, lactate, alpha-ketoglutarate, glutamate, oxalacetate and malate in the liver tissue. The feeding of vitamin D3 and carbostimulin normalizes, in the main, the concentrations of these metabolites.
