  • Title: [Effect of a single ethanol injection on lipid and lipoprotein synthesis in rat liver].
    Author: Titov VN, Pitsin DG.
    Journal: Biokhimiia; 1978 Jan; 43(1):83-8. PubMed ID: 203341.
    Abstract:
    A single ethanol injection results in the increase of mono-, di- and tri-glicerides synthesis in rat liver, and also of the synthesis of apoprotein of very low density lipoproteins, their formation and secretion. Different uptake of pools of 14C-acetyl CoA, synthesized from injected 14C-acetate, and 3H-acetyl CoA, synthesized through metabolic pathways of 3H-leucine, indicates the compartmentalization of acetyl CoA in the synthesis of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. 3H-acetyl CoA is more intensively used in the synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids than 14C-acetyl CoA synthesized from acetate. Ethanol increases the uptake of acetyl CoA, synthesized from acetate, for the synthesis of all the lipids, probably, for the expense of the increased synthesis of endogenous acetate in metabolic transformation of ethanol.
