Regulation of hepatic VLDL-TG production involves interplay between systemic FFA
delivery, hormonal, and nutritional factors that act in concert with hepatic fatty acid handling
to regulate short-term and long-term VLDL-TG production. The results of recent studies
underscore that our current understanding of these relationships is complex and needs
further research.
