Abstract:
Studies using dietary fish oil, safflower oil, and palm oil suggest that the decrease in plasma triacylglycerol due to dietary fish oils is somehow related to a decrease in the capacity of the liver to hydrolyze the phosphatidate, which then affects microsomal synthesis of triacylglycerol from diacylglycerol.
