"FAEE were found to uncouple oxidative phosphorylation in isolated mitochondria a and to increase the fragility of isolated pancreatic lysosomes. In addition, studies from our laboratory provided the first demonstration that FAEE in a physiologic particle, low density lipoprotein, can exert a toxic effect on an intact cell. We demonstrated that FAEE within LDL can reduce the rate of replication of HepG2 cells and decrease their rate of protein synthesis. We subsequently demonstrated in vivo that rats receiving FAEE in reconstituted LDL, at FAEE concentrations which are physiologically attainable (10-30 gM) after ethanol ingestion, showed toxicity for pancreatic acinar cells after a single infusion. Taken together, it is now a compelling argument that FAEE contribute to the toxicity of ethanol abuse."
