摘要:1. Vitamin E content in the adipose tissue was examined in rats with and without vitamin E deficiency. With the progression of vitamin E depletion, the more rapid decrease in tocopherol concentration was observed in brown adipose tissue (BAT) than in white adipose tissue (WAT), and the rate of decrease of tocopherol was approximately three times faster in BAT than in WAT. After the intramuscular administra-tion of 10mg/kg of all-rac-tocopheryl acetate twice a week for two weeks to vitamin E-deficient rats, a similar pattern of increase was observed in the tocopherol concentrations of BAT and WAT, although the rate of increase was slower in WAT than in BAT. 2. Changes of tocopherol concentration in BAT and WAT were investigated in normo-nourished rats with hyperlipemia produced by the intramuscular injection of Triton WR-1339 for 7 days. A marked increase in tocopherol concentration was observed in both BAT and WAT in the late period of hyperlipemia, with the increase being greater in WAT. 3. The fatty acid composition of adipose tissue was compared between rats with and without vitamin E deficiency. No significant differences were observed in BAT and WAT between the two groups. 4. The glucose uptake of WAT was not altered in vitamin E-deficient rats when compared with control rats.
