Triolein turnover different in liver and adipose tissue of rats
April 26th, 2005
Triolein turnover after oral administration is different in the liver and adipose tissue of rats. "To investigate exogenous triacylglycerol turnover, the time courses for labeled triolein in the liver, plasma and epididymal adipose tissue (adipose tissue) after oral administration to rats fed a fat-free or 10% corn oil diet for 3 days after fasting overnight were examined for 10 days. After the administration of labelled triolein to rats fed the fat-free diet, the incorporation (dpm/g) into total lipids of the liver and adipose tissue each reached the maximum in 8 hours and was seven times higher in the adipose tissue than in the liver," scientists in Japan...
