1. Rats previously starved for 24hr. were separately given by intraduodenal injections 0.5ml. of a dispersion containing 10mg. of sodium taurocholate, with 50mg. of glycerol 1,3-dioleate 2[1-(14)C]-palmitate, glycerol 1,2-dioleate 3[1-(14)C]-palmitate, a mixture of [1-(14)C]palmitic acid and triolein, or a mixture of [1-(14)C]-palmitic acid and oleic acid. 2. At the end of 30min., the net amounts, and the radioactivity, of the neutral-lipid components recovered from the intestinal lumen and mucosa, and the position of the labelled palmitic acid in the mucosal triglycerides, were determined. 3. When glycerol 1,3-dioleate 2[1-(14)C]-palmitate was administered, most of the labelled acid was retained in the di- and monoglycerides of the lumen; the triglycerides were the major components containing the radioactivity in the mucosa and 75-80% of the labelled acid was located at the beta-position of these triglycerides. 4. When glycerol 1,2-dioleate 3[1-(14)C]-palmitate was administered, the labelled acid was readily split off in the lumen and virtually no radioactivity could be traced in the monoglyceride fraction; in the intestinal mucosa, triglycerides were again the chief components containing most of the radioactivity, and 80-85% of the labelled acid was esterified at the outer positions of the glycerol. 5. When [1-(14)C]palmitic acid mixed with triolein was administered, the concentrations of free fatty acids increased markedly in the intestinal lumen and mucosa, and 80-88% of the radioactivity of the mucosal triglycerides was located at the outer positions of the glycerol. 6. When [1-(14)C]palmitic acid mixed with oleic acid was administered, the labelled acid accumulated in the lumen as well as in the cell, and it was randomly incorporated into all three positions of the mucosal triglycerides.

1. Combined guinea-pig cortex and cerebellum was shown to contain triglyceride lipase, diglyceride lipase and monoglyceride lipase, which were assayed by the release of [1-(14)C]palmitate from [1-(14)C]palmitoylglycerol esters. Triglyceride lipase and diglyceride lipase were found in all particulate fractions. 2. With osmotically ruptured synaptosomes the rates of release of palmitate from glyceryl tripalmitate and glyceryl dipalmitate were 7-25mumol/h per g of protein and 0.18-0.69mmol/h per g of protein respectively. The logarithm of the rate of hydrolysis of glyceryl monopalmitate increased linearly with the logarithm of protein concentration. The pH optima of triglyceride lipase and diglyceride lipase were between 7 and 8. The pH optimum for monoglyceride lipase was approx. 8. 3. Triglyceride lipase and diglyceride lipase of osmotically ruptured synaptosomes were stimulated by noradrenaline, 5-hydroxytryptamine and adrenaline. Triglyceride lipase of isolated synaptic membranes was stimulated by 0.01-1mm-noradrenaline. Aging of membranes at 0 degrees C decreased activity, which could still be stimulated by noradrenaline. Diglyceride lipase of isolated membranes was stimulated by 1mum-1mm-noradrenaline. The activity of triglyceride lipase in isolated synaptic vesicles was diminished by 1mm-5-hydroxytryptamine.
The effects on glycerolipid synthesis of a series of compounds including many drugs were investigated in cell-free preparations and slices of rat liver. p-Chlorobenzoate, p-chlorophenoxyisobutyrate, halofenate, D-amphetamine, adrenaline, procaine and N-[2-(4-chloro-3-sulphamoylbenzoyloxy)ethyl]norfenfluramine had little inhibitory effect on any of the systems investigated. Two amphiphilic anions, clofenapate and 2-(p-chlorophenyl)-2-(m-trifluoromethylphenoxy)acetate, both inhibited glycerol phosphate acyltransferase and diacylglycerol acyltransferase at approx. 1.6 and 0.7 mm respectively. Clofenapate (1 mm) also inhibited the incorporation of glycerol into lipids by rat liver slices without altering the relative proportions of the different lipids synthesized. The amphilic amines, mepyramine, fenfluramine, norfenfluramine, hydroxyethylnorfenfluramine, N-(2-benzoyloxyethyl)norfenfluramine, cinchocaine, chlorpromazine and demethylimipramine inhibited phosphatidate phosphohydrolase by 50% at concentrations between 0.2 and 0.9 mm. The last four compounds inhibited glycerol phosphate acyltransferase by 50% at concentrations between 1 and 2.6 mm. None of the amines examined appeared to be an effective inhibitor of diacylglycerol acyltransferase. Norfenfluramine, hydroxyethylnorfenfluramine and N-(2-benzoyloxyethyl)norfenfluramine produced less inhibition of glycerol incorporation into total lipids than was observed with equimolar clofenapate. The major effect of these amines in liver slices was to inhibit triacylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine synthesis and to produce a marked accumulation of phosphatidate. The results are discussed in terms of the control of glycerolipid synthesis. They partly explain the observed effects of the various drugs on lipid metabolism. The possible use of these compounds as biochemical tools with which to investigate the reactions of glycerolipid synthesis is considered.
