Abstract

Measurement of the entry rate of an intragastric load of [14C]triolein into the plasma in the presence of Triton WR1339 gave similar values for virgin and weaned rats, but significantly lower values for lactating rats. This decreased entry rate (65%) in lactating compared with virgin rats was due to a failure of Triton WR1339 to inhibit the accumulation of [14C]lipid in the mammary gland. This is further evidence that mammary-gland lipoprotein lipase behaves differently from that in white adipose tissue or muscle.
