| Résumé : | 1. The in vitro basal lipid metabolism of rat pancreatic fragments was compared with that in adipose tissue fragments and liver slices. 2. [1-14C]Acetate added to the media was mostly incorporated into palmitic acid and to a lesser extent into oleic acid. In addition, pancreatic tissue exhibited a marked capacity for elongation of polyunsaturated fatty acids by [1-14C]acetate and resulting desaturation when compared to adipose tissue and liver. 3. Data obtained in the presence of [U-14C]glucose, [1-14C]palmitate and 3H20 indicate that acetyl-CoA derived from glucose and from beta-oxidation of fatty acids contributed to de novo lipogenesis. 4. Oxidation of [1-14C]palmitic acid was 9-13 times higher in the pancreas than in adipose tissue or liver when expressed on a wet weight basis. 5. The fatty acid moiety of pancreatic glycerolipids could be derived from de novo synthesis, fatty acids added to the medium, or from fatty acids formed from the hydrolysis of endogenous lipids. The glycerol moiety could be derived either from glucose, or directly from glycerol through participation of glycerol kinase. |
