Effect of lysine and threonine deficient and supplement rice diets on lipids of hepatic smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum of rats.

Abstract

Effect of feeding lysine and threonine deficient and supplemented rice diets to rats for fifteen days has been studied on the lipids of hepatic smooth (SER) and rough endoplasmic reticulum. The deficient diet reduced protein and phospholipids of SER where as it increased triglycerides contents of both SER and RER compared to rats fed the supplemented diet.
