Thirty-day intoxication led to a reduced erythrocyte ability to utilize glucose and lower hexokinase activity in rats. There were no significant changes in the parameters of glucose utilization and hexokinase activity following ethanol-withdrawal, while ATP level decreased. Insulin administration normalized the above parameters, hexokinase activity exceeding control values.
