[Effect of saccharose on the intensity of changes in lipid metabolism in the presence of insufficient protein in the diet].

Experiments set up on rats demonstrated that the use of rations in which the protein content is reduced at the expense of increased proportion of carbohydrates leads to an accretion in the liver of total lipids, triacylglycerines, cholesterol ethers and to a drop of the phosphoglycerides level, accelerated synthesis of triacylglycerines, decelerated synthesis of phosphoglycerides and a slower rate of the lipids elimination from this organ. With an unchanged amount of triacylglycerines the blood demonstrated a reduced radioactivity level of triacylglycerines following introduction of 2-C14 sodium acetate with a concurrent fall of the phosphoglycerides level and lower tag concentration therein. Inclusion of saccharose in the protein-deficient ration was found to aggravate the manifestations of protein deficiency and to result in more substantial digressions of the lipids metabolism study figures.
