Substantial carbon recycling from linoleate into products of de novo lipogenesis occurs in rat liver even under conditions of extreme dietary linoleate deficiency
A significant portion of the β-oxidized carbon skeleton of some polyunsaturated fatty acids can be recycled into de novo lipogenesis, i.e., cholesterol, saturates and monounsaturates. The recycling of carbon from linoleate was quantified in liver lipids of severely linoleate-deficient rats to determ...
