Abstract
Intestinal absorption of glyoeryl tri-[1-14C]-oleate and [1-14C]-oleic acid, measured by serial determinations of blood radioactivity after oral administration of the compounds in peanut oil, was significantly greater in non-ketotic diabetic Chinese hamsters than in nondiabetic controls. Incorporation of [1-14C]-oleic acid into tissue lipids by jejunal slices in vitro was equal in both groups on a unit tissue weight basis. The data suggest that intraluminal hydrolysis does not differ between diabetic and non-diabetic animals. Overall uptake of free fatty acids may be enhanced in diabetics as a consequence of increased small intestinal mass.
