ABSTRACT
Triglyceride in the blood of rats increased during pregnancy, decreased to control during lactation, and increased again on weaning. The triglyceride content of the very-low-density lipoproteins (d<1.006 g/ml) changed in parallel with that of the plasma, and its magnitude indicated that it was chiefly responsible for the transport of triglycerides in the blood. These changes were accompanied by changes in the electrophoretic pattern of the lipoproteins of rat plasma, but no such changes were observed in lipoproteins of ovine and caprine serum.
