Human adipose tissue, unlike that of the rat, has a poor capacity to synthesize fatty acids de novo. The citrate cleavage enzyme is essentially absent from human adipose tissue, and other related lipogenic enzymatic activities are considerably lower and less adaptive than in rat epididymal fat. Studies carried out with monkey liver indicate, indirectly at least, a closer relationship of primate and rat liver. Comparison of lipogenesis in a number of animals indicates that the rat may be a poor experimental model to study the carbon pathway and regulation of lipogenesis.
