MATERIALSANDMETHODS Twenty-eight adult mongrel dogs were anesthetized with
pentobarbital(30 mg/kg) and their chests opened under sterile conditions. The proximal left …

Long-chain fatty acids are the principal lipid energy source in cellular oxidation and are
absorbed particularly well by the myocardium. The authors demonstrate a favorable …

The effect of ischemia on the myocardial content of nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA),
triacylglycerol, cholesteryl esters, and phospholipids assayed with gas-liquid …

The relative myocardial distribution of 9Tl and modified fatty acid (9-labelled 3-methyl-p-
[iodo]-phenyl pentadecanoic acid, MFA) was determined in eight patients with unstable …

Accumulation of lipid material in the myocardium was studied in cat hearts with acute
regional ischaemia of 3 h duration. The fractional volume of lipid droplets in cytosol was …

Radioiodinated fatty acid bound to albumin (RIFA) was given by intravenous injection to
dogs and moribund human subjects in order to label heart muscle. Photoscans of the thorax …

Aortic slices of rabbit, dog, rat and baboon are shown to incorporate [1-14 C]-linoleic acid
into tissue lipids.(2) The incorporation of the fatty acid is dependent on the weight of the …

The single circulation myocardial extraction of terminally iodinated hexadecenoic acid
