Fatty Acid Inhibition

Fatty acids inhibit cholesterol synthesis by rat liver homogenates. Inhibition occurs with acids containing either an even or an odd number of carbon atoms in the chain, and with saturated and unsaturated acids, the inhibition increasing with the degree of unsaturation of the acid. In the case of acids with an even number of carbon atoms the inhibition increases with chain length to a maximum at 12 carbons after which a rapid decrease occurs. The presence of fatty acid during cholesterol synthesis increases the acetate incorporated into fatty acids to a slight extent. This increase is small compared with the decrease in the amount incorporated into cholesterol. A possible mechanism for the inhibition is discussed.

Fatty Acid Inhibition

Further investigations have been carried out on the fatty acid inhibition of cholesterol biosynthesis in rat liver homogenates. A correlation appears to exist between cholesterol inhibition and the elongation of the carbon chain of saturated fatty acids containing an even number of carbon atoms. Neither saturated nor unsaturated fatty acids interfere with the formation of acetyl CoA by liver homogenate. The stage where acetoacetate is formed from acetyl CoA is suggested as a possible site for inhibition of cholesterol synthesis by fatty acids.

AbstractThis study investigated the efficiency of growth and the carcass characteristics of 24 Greyface (Border Leicester × Scottish Blackface), 24 Texel (12 purebred and 12 Texel × Texel-Greyface) and 24 Rouge (12 purebred and 12 Rouge × Rouge-Greyface) lambs finished on the same level of feeding. The efficiency of live-weight gain (kg/MJ) was higher in Greyface compared with Texel lambs (P< 0·01). The efficiency of empty body-weight gain (kg/MJ) was higher in Greyface (P< 0·01) and Rouge (P< 0·05) compared with Texel lambs. The efficiency of carcass gains (kg/MJ) tended to be higher in Greyface and Rouge compared with Texel lambs (P= 0·07). The efficiency of non-carcass component gains (kg/MJ) was also higher in Greyface compared with Texel lambs (P0·05). Carcass water, protein, lipid and ash gains did not vary significantly between the genotypes, however carcass energy gain tended to be higher in Greyface and Rouge compared with Texel lambs (P= 0·08). The relative proportions of water, protein, lipid and ash in carcass gains did not vary significantly between the genotypes. At the end of the experiment carcass water content was higher in Texel compared with Greyface lambs (P< 0·05) and carcass ash content was lower in Texel compared with Greyface (P< 0·01) and Rouge (P< 0·05) lambs. The concentration of saturated fatty acids was higher in Greyface compared with Rouge lambs (P< 0·001) and higher in Rouge compared with Texel lambs (P< 0·05). Monounsaturated fatty acid concentrations were higher in Rouge compared with Greyface lambs (P< 0·05) and higher in Texel compared with Rouge lambs (P< 0·001). Polyunsaturated fatty acid concentrations were higher in Rouge and Texel compared with Greyface lambs (P< 0·01). The ratio of n-6:n-3 fatty acids was lower in Rouge compared with Greyface lambs (P< 0·05).The efficiency of empty body gain was higher in male compared with female lambs (P< 0·05). Carcass water (P< 0·01) and protein (P< 0·05) gains were higher in male lambs. At the end of the experiment male carcasses contained a higher content of water (P< 0·05), protein (P< 0·01) and ash (P= 0·07), and a lower lipid (P< 0·05) and energy (P< 0·001) content. Carcass lipids from male lambs contained a higher concentration of polyunsaturated fatty acids (P< 0·001) and tended to contain a lower concentration of saturated fatty acids (P = 0·06).
