Effects of administration of tri-iodothyronine (T3) on activities of cardiac and renal pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (active form, PDHa) were investigated. In fed rats, T3 treatment did not affect cardiac or renal PDHa activity, although blood non-esterified fatty acid and ketone-body

The work investigated the mechanisms for modulation of renal and hepatic pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDH) activities after carbohydrate re-feeding of 48 h-starved rats, and identified a regulatory role for tri-iodothyronine. Glucose re-feeding decreased blood concentrations of lipid fuels in both

5-Methylpyrazole-3-carboxylic acid forms salts with basically substituted adenine bases of type (4) or (5), which have significantly more lipolysis inhibitory activity than the free acid itself. The substance tested, 6-amino-9-[2-hydroxy-3-(N-methyl-N-2-hydroxyethyl)-aminopropyl]-purine-5-methyl pyrazole-3-carboxylate (16), causes a significant reduction of serum FFA levels
