Indirect measurement of the production of plasma triacylglycerols by horses given a high-fat diet. The hypothesis tested was that the feeding of extra fat to horses would raise the production of plasma triacylglycerols (TAG). To measure TAG secretion, the indirect Triton method was used. Six adult horses were given a low-fat control or a high-fat diet according to a crossover design. In keeping with our earlier work, the high-fat diet lowered fasting plasma TAG concentrations by an average of 42% and raised post-heparin total lipoprotein lipase activity by 79%. The rate of increase in plasma TAG concentration after Triton administration was 49% lower when the horses were fed the high-fat di...
Lipid metabolism in equines fed a fat-rich diet. The hypothesis tested was that dietary fat, when compared with an isoenergetic amount of non-structural carbohydrates, stimulates lipolysis in adipose tissue and also stimulates the fatty-acid oxidative capacity in skeletal muscle from horses. Six adult horses were fed a high-fat, glucose or starch containing diet according to a 3 x 3 Latin square design with feeding periods of three weeks. The diets were formulated so that the intake of soybean oil versus either glucose or corn starch were the only variables. In accordance with previous work, whole plasma triacylglycerol (TAG) concentration d...
