Abstract
Liver slices, from mice fasted for one day and then refed for three days either a 15% corn oil diet or a 15% corn oil diet containing eicosa-5,8,11,14-tetraynoic acid (TYA), were incubated with [1-14C] acetate or [3H]H2O to determine lipogenic capacity. Dietary TYA produced a twofold stimulation in fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis. TYA also caused an increase in the relative proportion of linoleate (C18∶2) and a decrease in that of arachidonate (C20∶4) in liver. Thus, (a) despite high levels of C18∶2, hepatic lipogenesis can be increased, and (b) even short term feeding of TYA can alter the hepatic fatty acid composition presumably by inhibition of arachidonate synthesis from linoleate.This publication has 21 references indexed in Scilit:
