Lipoprotein Lipase Activity in Heart, Diaphragm and Adipose Tissue in Rats Fed Various Carbohydrates

Abstract
The lipoprotein lipase activities in the heart, diaphragm and adipose tissue were investigated in rats fed high-carbohydrate diets containing various carbohydrates. The ingestion of sucrose or fructose, as compared with ingestion of starch or glucose, increased significantly the lipoprotein lipase activity in the heart and diaphragm and slightly decreased the activity in adipose tissue. The relations of these changes with known metabolic effects of fructose or sucrose ingestion are discussed.
