The current
study assessed in vivo the effect of insulin on triglyceride-rich
lipoprotein (TRL) production by rat liver. Hepatic triglyceride and
apolipoprotein B (apoB) production were measured in anesthetized,
fasted rats injected intravenously with Triton WR-1339 (400 mg/kg).
After intravascular catabolism was blocked by detergent treatment,
glucose (500 mg/kg) was injected to elicit insulin secretion, and serum
triglyceride and apoB accumulation were monitored over the next 3 h. In glucose-injected rats, triglyceride secretion averaged 22.5 ± 2.1 µg · ml
1 · min
1,
which was significantly less by 30% than that observed in
saline-injected rats, which averaged 32.1 ± 1.4 µg · ml
1 · min
1. ApoB
secretion was also significantly reduced by 66% in glucose-injected rats. ApoB immunoblotting indicated that both B100 and B48 production were significantly reduced after glucose injection. Results support the
conclusion that insulin acts in vivo to suppress hepatic very low
density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglyceride and apoB secretion and
strengthen the concept of a regulatory role for insulin in VLDL
metabolism postprandially.
