Roles of Fatty Acid Oversupply and Impaired Oxidation in Lipid Accumulation in Tissues of Obese Rats
Figure 3
Dependence of FA oxidation () on both the rate of FA appearance, (a), and FA level (b), in lean and obese Zucker rats. FA availability has been pharmacologically manipulated using the antilipolytic agent nicotinic acid to generate a range of FA levels (-3 rats per dose).
