Plasma non-esterified fatty acids in sheep

Abstract: Concentrations of plasma non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) in sheep were found to be within the range 0.1–0.9 m-equiv/l. Relatively high levels (1.0–2.5 m-equiv/l) occurred in pregnant and non-pregnant sheep when fasted. Intravenous injection of glucose (1.0 g/kg body wt.) depressed KEFA concentrations to levels of about 0.05 m-equiv/l. Insulin, injected intravenously, caused an initial fall in the NEFA level, followed by a sharp rise which was maintained throughout hypoglycaemia. These results suggest that in… Show more

“…There is also evidence that, as the concentration of glucose is increased, fat mobilization from adipose tissue is reduced (Annison, 1960;McClymont & Vallance, 1962). Possible mechanisms by which such effects may be brought about will be discussed later.…”

“…Plasma glucose was determined by the glucose oxidase method of Huggett and Nixon (1957); free fatty acids (FFA) by the method of Dole (1956), as modified by Annison (1960); and insulin and growth hormone by radio-immunoassay using talc to separate antibody-bound and free hormone (Rosselin et al 1966;Wallace and Bassett 1970). Sodium and potassium were determined by flame-photometry with an autoanalyser (Technicon Instruments Corp. N.Y.) and urea was determined on an autoanalyser by the method of Wilson (1966).…”
