| Abstract: | Livers from normal fed or fasted (24h) rats were perfused in vitro to determine whether fatty acid affects the biosynthesis of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) apoprotein. Oleate stimulated VLDL triacylglycerol output and increased incorporation of L-[4,5-3H]leucine into VLDL apoprotein in both the fed and fasted groups. The increased incorporation of [3H]leucine was mainly into VLDL-apoprotein E. The total mass of VLDL apoprotein secreted was also stimulated by oleate proportionately. These data suggest that fatty acids may stimulate hepatic synthesis and/or secretion of the VLDL apoproteins and that apo E, may be required for the formation and secretion of triacyl-glycerol in the VLDL. |
