In vivo inhibition of hepatic lipogenesis in the rat by cyclandelate (3,3',5-trimethylcyclohexanylmandelate).

Rates of hepatic lipogenesis were measured in vivo in rats by incorporation into lipids of [3H] from injected [3H]H2O 17 hr after a single oral dose of cyclandelate (3,3',5-trimethylcyclohexanylmandelate, a vasoactive substance). Cyclandelate administration resulted in a significant inhibition (40-60%) of both sterol and fatty acid synthesis in the livers which was independent of the 3.2-fold diurnal variation in the rates of hepatic sterol and fatty acid synthesis. The inhibition of accumulation of newly synthesized fatty acid in intestine also reached statistical significance. The accumulation of newly synthesized sterol was significantly depressed in serum but did not result in any change in the concentration of serum total cholesterol. These results are interpreted in terms of the inhibitory effect of cyclandelate on hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase previously reported by us (Biochem. Pharmac. 32, 649, 1983).[1]
