Abstract:
The effect of adrenaline on triacylglycerol synthesis and secretion was examined in isolated rat hepatocytes. Cells were incubated with 0.5 mM-[1-14C]oleate, and the accumulation of triacylglycerol and [14C]triacylglycerol was measured in the incubation medium. Triacylglycerol appearing in the medium was present in a form with properties similar to very-low-density lipoproteins. Triacylglycerol, [14C]triacylglycerol and [14C]phospholipid contents of hepatocytes were also determined. Addition of 10 microM-(-)adrenaline decreased accumulation of glycerolipid in the incubation medium and also decreased cellular [14C]phospholipid content. Prazosin abolished these effects, whereas propranolol did not. The hormone did not affect cellular triacylglycerol content or rates of incorporation of [1-14C]oleate into cell triacylglycerol. The effect of adrenaline on the removal of newly secreted triacylglycerol and the secretion of synthesized glycerolipid was also examined. The catecholamine did not affect rates of removal of newly secreted triacylglycerol. Adrenaline did inhibit the secretion of pre-synthesized lipid by the cells, as assessed by the appearance of radiolabelled triacylglycerol from hepatocytes that had been preincubated with [1,2,3-3H]-glycerol. Adrenaline did not affect rates of fatty acid uptake by hepatocytes, but did stimulate oxidation of [1-14C]oleate, principally to 14CO2.

Alpha-adrenergic suppression of very-low-density-lipoprotein triacylglycerol secretion by isolated rat hepatocytes.

Abstract

Triacylglycerol appearing in the medium was present in a form with properties similar to very-low-density lipoproteins. Triacylglycerol, [14C]triacylglycerol and [14C]phospholipid contents of hepatocytes were also determined. Addition of 10 microM-(-)adrenaline decreased accumulation of glycerolipid in the incubation medium and also decreased cellular [14C]phospholipid content. Prazosin abolished these effects, whereas propranolol did not. The hormone did not affect cellular triacylglycerol content or rates of incorporation of [1-14C]oleate into cell triacylglycerol.

Abstract
The effect of adrenaline on triacylglycerol synthesis and secretion was examined in isolated rat hepatocytes. Cells were incubated with 0.5 mM-[1-14C]oleate, and the accumulation of triacylglycerol and [14C]triacylglycerol was measured in the incubation medium. Triacylglycerol appearing in the medium was present in a form with properties similar to very-low-density lipoproteins. Triacylglycerol, [14C]triacylglycerol and [14C]phospholipid contents of hepatocytes were also determined. Addition of 10 microM-(-)adrenaline decreased accumulation of glycerolipid in the incubation medium and also decreased cellular [14C]phospholipid content. Prazosin abolished these effects, whereas propranolol did not. The hormone did not affect cellular triacylglycerol content or rates of incorporation of [1-14C]oleate into cell triacylglycerol. The effect of adrenaline on the removal of newly secreted triacylglycerol and the secretion of synthesized glycerolipid was also examined. The catecholamine did not affect rates of removal of newly secreted triacylglycerol. Adrenaline did inhibit the secretion of pre-synthesized lipid by the cells, as assessed by the appearance of radiolabelled triacylglycerol from hepatocytes that had been preincubated with [1,2,3-3H]-glycerol. Adrenaline did not affect rates of fatty acid uptake by hepatocytes, but did stimulate oxidation of [1-14C]oleate, principally to 14CO2.
