“The Higher dose of insulin 100 units per kg body weight produced a 20% inhibition of arachidonate incorporation into synaptosomal PI and a 13% decrease of incorporation into microsomal phosphatidylcholine.”
“These results indicate that insulin induced deposition of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides, especially those containing monounsaturated fatty acids, and abnormal arachidonate distribution in LDL and tissues.”
