Abstract

1. Lipogenesis, as measured by the incorporation of (14)C-labelled glucose or acetate into fatty acids in liver slices, is high in foetal and adult rat liver but is low in the liver of the suckling rat, especially with glucose as substrate. 2. The rate of synthesis of non-saponifiable lipids from glucose is about 15 times as great in the liver of the 18-day foetus as in adult liver. Activity in the newborn is negligible. 3. Glucose incorporation into fat is strongly concentration-dependent in liver slices from the adult and 2-week-old rat, but less markedly so in liver slices from the foetus. 4. Changes in the activity of hepatic citrate-cleavage enzyme (ATP-citrate lyase) occur in parallel with the changes in the extent of fatty acid formation, supporting the participation of this enzyme in lipogenesis. However, NADP-malate dehydrogenase, a potential source of reduced nucleotide coenzyme for lipogenesis in the adult, could not be detected in foetal rat liver.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
