Influence of dietary fats on weight gain in albino rats.
Carbon-chain length and degree of saturation of dietary fat may influence weight gain. To examine this hypothesis we randomly allotted 100 male, 30-day old, albino rats to each of four groups. Each group was fed, ad libitum, a diet containing, as the only source of fat, either lard (L) or safflower oil (SO) (representing saturated and polyunsaturated fat respectively) or groundnut oil (GO) or c...
متن کاملRegulation of hepatic lipogenesis: the influence of dietary fats.
The factors governing the rate of fatty acid synthesis by the liver have been under investigation in this laboratory. The general study procedure consisted of modifying the nutritional or endocrine state of rats and then measuring the capacity of their excised livers to convert a variety of C4-labeled substrates (glucose, fructose, pyruvate, acetate) to fatty acids. It became clear quite early ...

متن کاملInfluence of high levels of dietary fats and cholesterol on atherosclerosis and lipid distribution in swine.
The degree of incorporation of injected l-C-acetate into tissue cholesterol on cholesterol free diets was much higher in the liver and plasma of swine ingesting saturated than unsaturated fat. The levels of cholesterol in all tissues increased with the presence of fat or cholesterol in the diet. In most cases, especially in the presence of cholesterol, cholesterol levels were highest in the pre...
متن کاملNeurotoxicity of Ecstasy metabolites in rat cortical neurons, and influence of hyperthermia.
3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA or "Ecstasy") is a widely abused, psychoactive recreational drug. There is growing evidence that the MDMA neurotoxic profile may be highly dependent on both its hepatic metabolism and body temperature. Metabolism of MDMA involves N-demethylation to 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA), which is also a drug of abuse. MDMA and MDA are O-demethylenated to N-m...
