Rats were maintained at 2°, 21°, and 33° for 3 weeks on a choline-supplemented or a choline-deficient diet. In contrast to the findings of some other workers, choline deficiency produced fatty livers at all temperatures.
The ratio of the total liver lipid to the total food intake was the same in all choline-supplemented rats. In choline-deficient rats this ratio was always higher and varied directly with temperature.
Supplementary key words choline deficiency fatty liver lipids environmental temperature pseudolipotropic effect rat
