[Plasma membrane lipid composition in liver regeneration: degree of fatty acid desaturation].
In the context of the biochemical characterization of the plasma membrane during liver regeneration, the fatty acid composition of phospholipids has been determined. Experiments were carried out on liver plasma membrane phospholipid extracts obtained from livers of laparatomized or partially hepatectomized rats 1.5, 4, 15 and 24 h after surgery. The results show no significant change in fatty acid composition and insaturation degree at any time after partial hepatectomy. The results are discussed in view of the lower cholesterol/phospholipid ratio observed in regenerating liver plasma membrane.
