EFFECT OF EXOGENOUS POLYUNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS ON LIPOGENIC ENZYME ACTIVITY IN RAT LIVER UNDER FIXED CARBOHYDRATE CONSUMPTION

Studies were conducted to evaluate specific dampening of hyperlipo-genesis (i.e. enhanced lipogenic enzyme activity of the liver in rats refed a high carbohydrate, fat-free diet: F-diet) by exogenous polyunsaturated fatty acids under fixed carbohydrate consumption. In force-feeding of rats with a li...

Description
Summary:Studies were conducted to evaluate specific dampening of hyperlipo-genesis (i.e. enhanced lipogenic enzyme activity of the liver in rats refed a high carbohydrate, fat-free diet: F-diet) by exogenous polyunsaturated fatty acids under fixed carbohydrate consumption. In force-feeding of rats with a linoleate-rich diet (F-diet containing 4.5 safflower oil), the lipogenic enzyme activities; fatty acid synthetase (FAS) and malic enzyme (ME), in the liver supernatantt were found to be significantly lower than those in rats force-fed only an F-diet (p
