[The effect of hypophysectomy on the lipogenic activity of adipose tissue of rabbits].
In vitro lipogenesis is always higher in adipocytes from hypophysectomized rabbit than from normal animals. Lipogenesis is estimated by the incorporation of labelled glucose and acetate into fatty acids. Insulin added to the culture medium slightly enhances lipogenesis. The ability of rabbit adipocytes to utilize acetate is clearly demonstrated. However, it seems different for different fatty tissues.
