Utilization of glucose, alanine, lactate, and glycerol as lipogenic substrates by periuterine adipose tissue in situ in fed and starved rats.
TLDR
The utilization of the infused substrate for fatty acids and glyceride-glycerol synthesis by the tissue was quantified by taking into account the infused radioactivity, the difference in the amount of 14C-labeled lipids appearing in periuterine adipose tissue on the left and the right sides, the arterial plasma concentration of the studied metabolite, and the uterine horn blood flow.About:

Decreased lipolysis and enhanced glycerol and glucose utilization by adipose tissue prior to development of obesity in monosodium glutamate (MSG) treated-rats.
Miriam Sterman Dolnikoff,A. Martin-Hidalgo,Ubiratan Fabres Machado,Fábio Bessa Lima,E. Herrera +4 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that an enhanced insulin sensitivity in 1 month old MSG rats is responsible for the decreased lipolytic activity and enhanced glucose uptake, which disturbs the normal balance between fat depots breakdown and accumulation in favor of the latter.

Cholesterol starvation decreases P34cdc2 kinase activity and arrests the cell cycle at G2
Javier Martínez-Botas,Yajaira Suárez,Antonio J. Ferruelo,Diego Gómez-Coronado,Miguel A. Lasunción +4 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that in both lymphoblastoid and promyelocytic cells, cholesterol availability governs the G2 traversal, probably by affecting p34cdc2 activity, and cholesterol starvation decreases P34CDc2 kinase activity and arrests the cell cycle at G2.

TL;DR: The distinct roles of mevalonate, or its non-sterol derivatives, and cholesterol in cell cycle progression, both being required for normal cell cycling are demonstrated.

A simple method for the isolation and purification of total lipides from animal tissues.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors described a simplified version of the method and reported the results of a study of its application to different tissues, including the efficiency of the washing procedure in terms of the removal from tissue lipides of some non-lipide substances of special biochemical interest.

Alanine: Key Role in Gluconeogenesis
TL;DR: Of 20 amino acids measured, alanine is the principal amino acid released by forearm muscle of man, in accord with its being the Principal amino acid extracted by liver for gluconeogenesis.

Control of Gluconeogenesis from Amino Acids in the Perfused Rat Liver
TL;DR: It is proposed that glucagon and possibly catecholamines play a role in the physiological regulation of gluconeogenesis from amino acids by increasing the formation of cyclic 3',5'AMP, which acts to stimulate both the transport of amino acids into the hepatic cell and the conversion of pyruvate to P-pyruvates.

TL;DR: An alternative and more rapid method has been developed which is based on the following reactions: glycerol + ATP + L-glycerol 1-phosphate + ADP (glycersol kinase) ADP + phosphoenolpyruvate + NADH2 (lactate dehydrogenase)
