Effect of carbon tetrachloride administration on the synthesis of triglycerides and phospholipids in rat liver

In vivo incorporation of choline-methyl-14C into liver lecithin and its biosynthetic precursors was studied in CCl4-treated rats. Radioactivity in cytidine diphosphoryl (CDP-)choline and lecithin was reduced to one-third of control levels, whereas that of phosphorylcholine was increased to 4.7 times...
