CHANGES OF ACTIVITIES OF LIPO-RELA TED ENZYMES IN VENTROMEDIAL HYPOTHALAMIC OBES E RATS AT ACUTE PHASE IN FED STATE / 营养学报

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate activities of lipo-related enzymes in ventromedial hypothalamic obese rats at acute phase in fed state. Methods: Female SD rats were divided into two groups, one group received bilateral electrolytic lesions of ventromedial hypothalamus(VMH), and another one was used as sham control. Samples of blood, livers, and subcutaneous, parametric and mesenteric adipose tissues ,and gastrocnemius were collected one week after VMH lesions and sham operations in fed state. Results: Serum insulin in VMH group was higher than that in sham group, meanwhile serum free fatty acids in VMH group were lower (P
