Sucrose enhances rat hepatocyte VLDL assembly capacity; hypothesis-generating for human dietary carbohydrate effects on lipoprotein metabolism.
Does dietary carbohydrate (sucrose) induce lipogenesis and VLDL synthesis in rat hepatocytes?
Dietary carbohydrate coinduces lipogenesis and apolipoprotein synthesis in vivo, increasing the capacity of hepatocytes to assemble and secrete triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins.
Boogaerts et al. (1984) studied this question.
