Ketogenesis and Malonyl Coenzyme. A Content of Liver from 'Streptococcus pneumoniae'-infected Rats.

Abstract

Malonyl-CoA is a possible regulator of ketogenesis. Since infection partially inhibits starvation ketosis, studies were performed to determine if malonyl-CoA content was the limiting factor in ketogenesis during an infection. Malonyl-CoA was increased in fed rat liver and decreased in fasted and fasted-infected rat liver. This suggests that malonyl-CoA content does not regulate ketogenesis during an infection. (Author)
