Fat storage cells in the livers of protein deficient rats

Fat storage cells in the livers of protein deficient rats

Increased numbers of fat storage cells appear in the livers of rats subjected to chronic protein deficiency. The accumulation of lipid in these cells may be related to a low con-centration of enzymes required for fat catabolism. The derivation of the cells is unknown; some evidence is presented for...

Zusammenfassung:Increased numbers of fat storage cells appear in the livers of rats subjected to chronic protein deficiency. The accumulation of lipid in these cells may be related to a low con-centration of enzymes required for fat catabolism. The derivation of the cells is unknown; some evidence is presented for a possible reticuloendothelial origin
