Abstract
It is well established that fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis are not inhibited in Morris hepatomas during the fasting state in contradistinction to normal liver. The constitutive enzymes of these pathways in hepatomas appear to be normal. We observed that the tumor content of the feedback inhibitor of lipo-genesis, long chain fatty acyl CoA and its cytoplasmic binding protein, Z protein, were both low and did not increase significantly during fasting. We proposed that the basic defect could be defective net production of Z protein. Preliminary data suggest that there is also a decrease in cholesterol affinity for its cytosolic binding protein in Morris hepatomas. This raises the intriguing possibility that the common denominator for these metabolic defects in hepatomas resides in the abnormal metabolism of a family of cytosolic binding proteins.
