Polychlorobiphenyls-tetra (TCB) was injected subcutaneously in rabbits in doses of 80 mg/kg three times a week for 15 days. Relative weight of liver and kidney to body weight was increased in the TCB treated animals. In TCB trcated rabbits, triglyceride content of the liver was increased associated with the elevation of plasma FFA level and plasma concentration of triglyceride was also increased in comparison with those of control rabbits. The results indicate that the elevation of plasma FFA was followed by the increase of plasma triglyceride concentration. Agarose gel electrophoresis of plasma in TCB treated rabbits revealed the increase in propotion of pre-beta lipoprotein concomitant with the decrease in that of alpha lipoprotein.
