“The addition of 0.5 mM octanoate plus 2 mM glycerol induces incorporation of [U-14C]Alnine into glucose and decreases glutamine synthesis, whereas oleate and palmitate in the presence of glycerol are less potent than octanoate.”
“The addition of glycerol modified quantitatively the products of palmitate metabolism by adult hepatocytes but no such effects were observed with neonatal cells.”

“In all four dietary states, addition of palmitate to the incubation medium resulted in increased rates of glyceride glycerol formation and decreased rates of fatty acid synthesis from 14C-labelled pyruvate.”

“However, the incorporation of radioactive palmitate into lipoprotein was more severely curtailed after glycerol starvation, the cumulative rate of which was 8% of that observed in the unstarved cells.”
