Abstract
Age-related changes in hepatic triglyceride formation have been described in developing rats. Triglyceride formation was measured in vitro in the presence of [14C]glycerol-3-phosphate, palmitate, ATP, CoA, and Mg2+ by using liver homogenates and microsomal fractions derived from various age groups of animals. Triglyceride formation was most active in one-day-old rats and then decrease with age. The increase in triglyceride formation following birth was prevented by the administration of puromycin or by denying suckling. In addition, changes in plasma and hepatic triglyceride concentrations, were also determined as functions of age. These studies suggest that the age of the animal significantly influences triglyceride metabolism.
