Effect of free fatty acids and cholesterol in vitro on liver plasma membrane-bound enzymes

  • Published:
Experientia Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The effect of cholesterol and fatty acid treatment in vitro was tested on rat liver plasma membrane-bound enzymes and lipid fluidity. The observed alterations of membrane fluidity affect both (Na+−K+)-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase activities but not 5′-nucleotidase; basal adenylate cyclase as well as its hormonal sensitivity were differentially affected by changes of membrane microenvironment.
