Cutaneous lipogenesis: precursors utilized by guinea pig skin for lipid synthesis

Cutaneous lipogenesis was studied, using a guinea pig ear slice incubation technique, for the following precursors: acetate, propionate, butyrate, glucose, pyruvate, lactate, succinate, citrate, and selected amino acids. Active lipogenesis was observed with short-chain fatty acids, glucose, pyruvate...
