Use of cytosolic triacylglycerol hydrolysis products and of exogenous fatty acid for the synthesis of triacylglycerol secreted by cultured rat hepatocytes

The fatty acyl moieties incorporated into triacylglycerol (TAG) secreted by rat hepatocytes are derived from diacylglycerol (DAG) that is synthesized de novo through the phosphatidate pathway or derived from endogenous, cytosolic TAG after hydrolysis to DAG and re-esterification. We have used a dual...
