Abstract: 
This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of dietary oxidized fats on the relative mRNA concentrations and the activities of fatty acid synthase (FAS) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) in the liver of rats treated with vitamin E or selenium. Two experiments with male Sprague-Dawley rats were carried out. The first experiment included eight groups of rats fed diets with either fresh fat or three different types of oxidized fat, prepared by heating at temperatures of 50, 105, or 190degreesC, over a period of 6 wk. The diets contained either 25 or 250 mg alpha-tocopherol equivalents per kg. The second experiment included four groups of rats fed diets with fresh fat or oxidized fat, heated at a temperature of 55degreesC, containing either 70 or 570 mug selenium per kg, over a period of 8 wk. Feeding the diets with oxidized fats led to a significant overall reduction of the relative mRNA concentrations and the activities of FAS and G6PDH in both experiments. The effects of the oxidized fats on mRNA concentrations and activities of these enzymes were independent of the dietary concentrations of vitamin E or selenium. Moreover, in both experiments the rats whose diet contained the oxidized fats had significantly lower concentrations of TG in liver, plasma, and VLDL than the rats whose diet contained fresh fat. The study suggests that oxidized fats contain substances that suppress gene expression of lipogenic enzymes in the liver.
