Changes in the sensitivity of lipogenesis in rat hepatocytes to hormones and precursors over the diurnal cycle and during longer-term starvation of donor animals.
In rat hepatocytes freshly isolated from donor rats at different times of the day, the rates of lipogenesis (de novo fatty acid synthesis) varied with a diurnal periodicity. The maximal rate occurred approximately 5 hr after the end of the normal 8-hr feeding period and at this time was four- to fiv...
