Abstract
After brief incorporation with 3H-glycerol, neutral lipid synthesis is lower in coelomocytes from decerebrated worms than in coelomocytes from control worms, but later this relationship is reversed. The presence of the brain increases the synthesis of neutral lipid, especially triglycerides, by coelomo-cytes maintained in vitro. The release of triglycerides in vitro by previously labelled coelomocytes is also stimulated by cerebral endocrine factors.
