In vitro Incorporation of Acetate-I-14C into the Leucocyte Lipids following a High Protein or Fatty Meal

Abstract

THE role of leucocytes in lipid metabolism has been confirmed1–4; moreover, their special role during lipæmia has been emphasized5,6. In a previous communication7, results have been given concerning the lipid metabolism of blood cells during post-alimentary lipæmia.
