Effect of Restraint on Free Fatty Acid Mobilization in Rats

JOSEPH D. SAPIRA M.D.1, RICHARD LIPMAN B.S.1, and ALVIN P. SHAPIRO M.D.1

1 Psychophysiology Laboratory, Department of Medicine, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, Pa.

A metabolic measure of chronic noxious stimulation may be the free fatty acid reserve. This is operationally defined as the amount of free fatty acid present in the circulation following a large dose of L-norepinephrine. Evidence is presented that restraint causes a significant lowering of the free fatty acid reserve in rats.
