Abstract

Administration of large doses of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) can protect rats against the fatly liver produced by ethionine1,2,3 carbon tetrachloride3 (CCl4), azaserine3, ethanol4 and puromycin5. In considering the possible mechanisms involved in this protection, Hyams et al 3. suggested that suppression of free fatty acid (FFA) mobilisation was a major factor, but the possibility that hypothermia played a part, at least in the case of CCl4 toxicity, could not be excluded.
