To assess the possible role of altered hepatic processing of free fatty acids in dietary sucrose-induced accumulation of triglyceride in the liver and blood plasma, livers from rats fed commercial laboratory stock and high sucrose diets were perfused both with and without oleic acid substrate. Consumption of the sucrose diet exerted a multiplicity of effects on oleic acid metabolism, characterized by decreased conversion to both ketone bodies and carbon dioxide, increased esterification into liver triglyceride, and increased secretion in triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. During the infusion of oleic acid, livers from sucrose-fed rats also exhibited decreased ketogenesis, and increased secretion of triglyceride from endogenous sources. Since oleic acid uptake from the perfusion medium was identical in both groups, the observed effects of sucrose feeding are ascribed to altered rates of intracellular metabolic processes. Mass and radiochemical analyses of perfusate ketone bodies and triglycerides were indicative of greater mobilization of triglycerides from hepatocellular lipid droplets in the livers from sucrose-fed rats. These livers contained more triglyceride and secreted more triglyceride even in the absence of infused oleic acid. In summary, the sucrose-rich diet increased the esterification:oxidation ratio of intracellular free fatty acids derived from both the circulation and endogenous sources within the hepatocyte. In response, secretion of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins by the liver and deposition of triglyceride within the liver were promoted. It is concluded that alterations in the processing of free fatty acids by the liver contribute significantly to the liver and plasma triglyceride accumulation following sucrose consumption.
