The modification of choline deficiency by simultaneous pantothenic acid deficiency.
It was found recently (1) that feeding a cholesterol-rich diet to pantothenic acid-deficient rats did not result in the fatty livers and high levels of cholesterol in liver and serum seen in comparable animals maintained on a normal diet. Decrease in food intake appeared not to account for this phenomenon, since the food intake of the deficient group on a body weight basis was higher than that ...
متن کاملAssay for free and total choline activity in biological fluids and tissues of rats and man with Torulopsis pintolopessi.
The sensitive, specific growth response to choline activity of the thermophilic enteric yeast Torulopsis pintolopessi enables estimation of free and bound choline activity in rat and human fluids and tissues- as little as 10 ng/ml of choline is measurable. Unlike other microbial assays, estimation of unbound (free) choline activity is not influenced by methionine or phospholipids. The method al...
متن کاملDifferential regulation of liver P-450III cytochromes in choline-deficient rats: implications for the erythromycin breath test as a parameter of liver function.
Progressive liver fibrosis in rats develops when they are fed a diet deficient in choline. This diet also results in a pronounced and selective decrease in the liver microsomal content of a phase I drug-metabolizing enzyme belonging to the cytochrome P-450III gene family. Because P-450III cytochromes characteristically catalyze the N-demethylation of erythromycin, we believed that the productio...
متن کاملThe α-tocopherol status and expression of α-tocopherol-related proteins in methionine-choline deficient rats treated with vitamin E
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is the most common liver disorder in developed countries, and its incidence is increasing in all population groups. As an antioxidant, vitamin E is effective in the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, although the mechanism is still unclear. Methionine-choline deficient Wistar rats (n = 5) used as an experimental model of non-alcoholic fatty liver d...
متن کاملInfluence of dietary methionine level on the liver metallothionein mRNA level in rats.
The effects of some methyl-containing compounds added to a choline-deficient diet on the metallothionein mRNA level in the rat liver were studied. The addition of choline or carnitine to the choline-deficient diet did not induce a gain in body weight, while the addition of either betaine or methionine to the choline-deficient diet, or of methionine to the choline-deficient diet with choline sig...
