Interactions of saturated, n-6 and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids to modulate arachidonic acid metabolism 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Anti-thrombotic effects of omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids are believed to be due to their ability to reduce arachidonic acid levels. Therefore, weanling rats were fed n-3 acids in the form of linseed oil (18:3n-3) or fish oil (containing 20:5n-3 and 22:6n-3) in diets containing high levels of either saturated fatty acids (hydrogenated beef tallow) or high levels of linoleic acid (safflower oil) for 4 weeks. The effect of diet on the rate-limiting enzyme of arachidonic acid biosynthesis (delta 6-desaturase) and on the lipid composition of hepatic microsomal membrane was determined. Both linseed oil- or fish oil-containing diets inhibited conversion of linoleic acid to gamma-linolenic acid. Inhibition was greater with fish oil than with linseed oil, only when fed with saturated fat. delta 6-Desaturase activity was not affected when n-3 fatty acids were fed with high levels of n-6 fatty acids. Arachidonic acid content of serum lipids and hepatic microsomal phospholipids was lower when n-3 fatty acids were fed in combination with beef tallow but not when fed with safflower oil. Similarly, n-3 fatty acids (18:3n-3, 20:5n-3, 22:5n-3, and 22:6n-3) accumulated to a greater extent when n-3 fatty acids were fed with beef tallow than with safflower oil. These observations indicate that the efficacy of n-3 fatty acids in reducing arachidonic acid level is dependent on the linoleic acid to saturated fatty acid ratio of the diet consumed. 相似文献

Recent literature provides a basis for understanding the behavioral, functional, and structural consequences of nutritional deprivation or disease-related abnormalities of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. The literature suggests that these effects are mediated through competition between n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids at certain enzymatic steps, particularly those involving polyunsaturated fatty acid elongation and desaturation. One critical enzymatic site is a delta6-desaturase. On the other hand, an in-vivo method in rats, applied following chronic n-3 nutritional deprivation or chronic administration of lithium, indicates that the cycles of de-esterification/re-esterification of docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3) and arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) within brain phospholipids operate independently of each other, and thus that the enzymes regulating each of these cycles are not likely sites of n-3/n-6 competition. 相似文献

The influences of diets having different fatty acid compositions on the fatty-acid content, desaturase activities, and membrane fluidity of rat liver microsomes have been analyzed. Weanling male rats (35–45 g) were fed a fat-free semisynthetic diet supplemented with 10% (by weight) marine fish oil (FO, 12.7% docosahexaenoic acid and 13.8% eicosapentaenoic acid), evening primrose oil (EPO, 7.8% γ-linolenic acid and 70.8% linoleic acid) or a mixture of 5% FO-5% EPO. After 12 weeks on the respective diets, animals fed higher proportions of (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (FO group) consistently contained higher levels of 20:3(n-6), 20:5(n-3), 22:5(n-3), and 22:6(n-3), and lower levels of 18:2(n-6) and 20:4(n-6), than those of the EPO (a rich source of (n-6) polyunsaturated fatty acids) or the FO + EPO groups. Membrane fluidity, as estimated by the reciprocal of the order parameter SDPH, was higher in the FO than in the EPO or the FO + EPO groups, and the n-6 fatty-acid desaturation system was markedly affected. 相似文献

Synthesis of n-3 and n-6 very long chain-PUFAs (VLC-PUFAs) from 18-carbon essential fatty acids is differentially regulated. The predominant product arising from n-3 fatty acids is docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3), with the liver serving as the main site of production. The synthetic pathway requires movement of a 24-carbon intermediate from the endoplasmic reticulum to peroxisomes for retroconversion to 22:6n-3. The mechanism of this intra-organelle flux is unknown, but could be binding-protein facilitated. We thus investigated binding of a series of previously untested VLC-PUFAs to liver fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP). Three fluorometric assays were employed, all of which showed strong binding (K(d)' approximately 10(-8) to 10(-7) M) of 20-, 22-, and 24-carbon n-3 PUFAs to L-FABP. In contrast, synthesis of the predominant n-6 PUFA product, arachidonic acid, does not require intra-organelle transport. However, we found that n-6 VLC-PUFAs bound to L-FABP with affinities (K(d)' approximately 10(-8) to 10(-7) M) comparable to their n-3 counterparts.Although these results raise the possibility that L-FABP may participate in the cytoplasmic processing of n-3 and n-6 VLC-PUFAs, there is no evidence on the basis of binding affinities that L-FABP accounts for differences in the predominant products formed by the n-3 and n-6 PUFA metabolic pathways. 相似文献

The study was carried out on 42 breeder couples (42 males and 42 females) of European brown hare (Lepus europaeus), divided into three groups fed three different experimental diets (14 couples/treatment). Two diets were supplemented with n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs; 2% of linseed oil and soybean oil, respectively) and were compared with a control diet supplemented with a monounsaturated fatty acids (2% of olive oil). During the experimental period (from 15 April to 30 September), the following parameters were recorded: days from the beginning of trial to the first parturition, parturition interval, number of parturitions, number of leverets born (alive and dead), dead during suckling, the total number of leverets weaned and feed intake per cage (of males, females and leverets until weaning). Feed intake was not influenced by treatments. In hares fed n-3 and n-6 diets, the days from the beginning of the trial to the first parturition and the parturition interval were similar and were lower compared with control group (63.1 v. 70.6 days, and 37.8 v. 40.9 days, respectively; P < 0.05). Hares from n-6 group had a higher (P < 0.05) number of parturitions per cage during the experimental period than the n-3 and control group that showed a similar value (3.00 v. 2.36, respectively). The total number of leverets born per cage and parturition in n-6 and n-3 groups increased with respect to those fed control diet (P < 0.05). The leverets' mortality rate at birth was higher in n-6 than in n-3 and control group (3.50 v. 2.17, respectively; P < 0.05). In control group, leverets' mortality rate during suckling was lower with respect to n-3 (P < 0.05) and n-6 (P < 0.05), showing the highest value for the latter (P < 0.05). In spite of this higher mortality, the number of leverets weaned per cage and parturition was higher (P < 0.05) in n-6 compared with n-3 group, being the latter higher than the control group (3.12, 2.79 and 2.43, respectively). Our results show that the dietary PUFAs, particularly n-6 supplementation, have a positive influence on the reproductive performances of the European brown hare. 相似文献

Ras proteins are critical regulators of cell function, including growth, differentiation, and apoptosis, with membrane localization of the protein being a prerequisite for malignant transformation. We have recently demonstrated that feeding fish oil, compared with corn oil, decreases colonic Ras membrane localization and reduces tumor formation in rats injected with a colon carcinogen. Because the biological activity of Ras is regulated by posttranslational lipid attachment and its interaction with stimulatory lipids, we investigated whether docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), found in fish oil, compared with linoleic acid (LA), found in corn oil, alters Ras posttranslational processing, activation, and effector protein function in young adult mouse colon cells overexpressing H-ras (YAMC-ras). We show here that the major n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) constituent of fish oil, DHA, compared with LA (an n-6 PUFA), reduces Ras localization to the plasma membrane without affecting posttranslational lipidation and lowers GTP binding and downstream p42/44(ERK)-dependent signaling. In view of the central role of oncogenic Ras in the development of colon cancer, the finding that n-3 and n-6 PUFA differentially modulate Ras activation may partly explain why dietary fish oil protects against colon cancer development. 相似文献

In this study the n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid appear to be effective inducers of electrophile-responsive element (EpRE) regulated genes, whereas the n-6 PUFA arachidonic acid is not. These n-3 PUFAs need to be oxidized to induce EpRE-regulated gene expression, as the antioxidant vitamin E can partially inhibit the PUFA induced dose-dependent effect. Results were obtained using a reporter gene assay, real-time RT-PCR and enzyme activity assays. The induction of EpRE-regulated phase II genes by n-3 PUFAs may be a major pathway by which n-3 PUFAs, in contrast to n-6 PUFAs, are chemopreventive and anticarcinogenic. 相似文献

Dietary-treated phenylketonuric patients (PKUs) display low levels of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in plasma lipids. In a 6-month clinical trial we observed a decrease of triglycerides and an increase of n-3 long-chain PUFA in plasma of PKUs supplemented with fish oil, while no major differences in respect to the baseline values were found in a group supplemented with blackcurrant oil. A more complete source of long-chain PUFA of both the n-6 and n-3 series should be investigated for dietary supplementation of PKU patients. 相似文献

cAMP-dependent signaling regulates the adipogenic effect of n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Madsen L Pedersen LM Liaset B Ma T Petersen RK van den Berg S Pan J Müller-Decker K Dülsner ED Kleemann R Kooistra T Døskeland SO Kristiansen K 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2008,283(11):7196-7205
The effect of n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-6 PUFAs) on adipogenesis and obesity is controversial. Using in vitro cell culture models, we show that n-6 PUFAs was pro-adipogenic under conditions with base-line levels of cAMP, but anti-adipogenic when the levels of cAMP were elevated. The anti-adipogenic action of n-6 PUFAs was dependent on a cAMP-dependent protein kinase-mediated induction of cyclooxygenase expression and activity. We show that n-6 PUFAs were pro-adipogenic when combined with a high carbohydrate diet, but non-adipogenic when combined with a high protein diet in mice. The high protein diet increased the glucagon/insulin ratio, leading to elevated cAMP-dependent signaling and induction of cyclooxygenase-mediated prostaglandin synthesis. Mice fed the high protein diet had a markedly lower feed efficiency than mice fed the high carbohydrate diet. Yet, oxygen consumption and apparent heat production were similar. Mice on a high protein diet had increased hepatic expression of PGC-1alpha (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1alpha) and genes involved in energy-demanding processes like urea synthesis and gluconeogenesis. We conclude that cAMP signaling is pivotal in regulating the adipogenic effect of n-6 PUFAs and that diet-induced differences in cAMP levels may explain the ability of n-6 PUFAs to either enhance or counteract adipogenesis and obesity. 相似文献

Conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs) and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) improve insulin sensitivity in insulin-resistant rodents. However, the effects of these fatty acids on insulin secretion are not known but are of importance to completely understand their influence on glucose homeostasis. We therefore examined islet function after dietary supplementation consisting of 1% CLAs in combination with 1% n-3 enriched PUFAs for 12 wk to mice on a normal diet and to insulin-resistant mice fed a high-fat diet (58% fat). In the mice fed a normal diet, CLA/PUFA supplementation resulted in insulin resistance associated with low plasma adiponectin levels and low body fat content. Intravenous and oral glucose tolerance tests revealed a marked increase in insulin secretion, which nevertheless was insufficient to counteract the insulin resistance, resulting in glucose intolerance. In freshly isolated islets from mice fed the normal diet, both basal and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion were adaptively augmented by CLA/PUFA, and at a high glucose concentration this was accompanied by elevated glucose oxidation. In contrast, in high-fat-fed mice, CLA/PUFA did not significantly affect insulin secretion, insulin resistance, or glucose tolerance. It is concluded that dietary supplementation of CLA/PUFA in mice fed the normal diet augments insulin secretion, partly because of increased islet glucose oxidation, but that this augmentation is insufficient to counterbalance the induction of insulin resistance, resulting in glucose intolerance. Furthermore, the high-fat diet partly prevents the deleterious effects of CLA/PUFA, but this dietary supplementation was not able to counteract high-fat-diet-induced insulin resistance. 相似文献

We examined the effects of arachidonic acid (AA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and their ultraviolet (UV)-irradiated products on HL-60 cells and isolated mitochondria to explore the following four obscure points in the mechanism of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs)-induced apoptosis: (i). the role of reactive oxygen species, (ii). the interaction of PUFAs and their metabolites with mitochondria in situ, (iii). the cyclosporine A (CsA)-sensitivity in PUFA-induced membrane permeability transition, (iv). the specificity of oxidized n-3 PUFAs in the induction of apoptosis in cancer cells. UV-oxidized PUFAs contained conjugated dienes and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS). The apoptotic effects of PUFAs on HL-60 cells were increased by UV-irradiation whereas the swelling effect of PUFAs on isolated mitochondria was decreased. Both oxidized n-3 and n-6 PUFAs induced increased depolarization, ferricytochrome c release, the activation of various caspases, and DNA-fragmentation in a CsA-insensitive mechanism concomitant with a slight increase in the value of TBARS in cells. Furthermore, there were no significant differences in the mechanism of apoptosis induced by either oxidized AA or oxidized EPA. On the basis of these results, it was concluded that both oxidized n-3 or n-6 PUFAs induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells by a similar mechanism in a CsA-insensitive manner and also that oxidized products of PUFAs, but not the cellular oxidation process itself, play an important role in the mechanism of apoptosis in HL-60 cells. 相似文献

Activity of human Delta5 and Delta6 desaturases on multiple n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids.
R J de Antueno L C Knickle H Smith M L Elliot S J Allen S Nwaka M D Winther 《FEBS letters》2001,509(1):77-80
Yeast co-expressing human elongase and desaturase genes were used to investigate whether the same desaturase gene encodes an enzyme able to desaturate n-3 and n-6 fatty acids with the same or different carbon chain length. The results clearly demonstrated that a single human Delta5 desaturase is active on 20:3n-6 and 20:4n-3. Endogenous Delta6 desaturase substrates were generated by providing to the yeast radiolabelled 20:4n-6 or 20:5n-3 which, through two sequential elongations, produced 24:4n-6 and 24:5n-3, respectively. Overall, our data suggest that a single human Delta6 desaturase is active on 18:2n-6, 18:3n-3, 24:4n-6 and 24:5n-3. 相似文献

Dietary n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) deprivation in rodents reduces brain arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) concentration and 20:4n-6-preferring cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2) -IVA) and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 expression, while increasing brain docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3) concentration and DHA-selective calcium-independent phospholipase A(2) (iPLA(2) )-VIA expression. We hypothesized that these changes are accompanied by up-regulated brain DHA metabolic rates. Using a fatty acid model, brain DHA concentrations and kinetics were measured in unanesthetized male rats fed, for 15 weeks post-weaning, an n-6 PUFA 'adequate' (31.4 wt% linoleic acid) or 'deficient' (2.7 wt% linoleic acid) diet, each lacking 20:4n-6 and DHA. [1-(14) C]DHA was infused intravenously, arterial blood was sampled, and the brain was microwaved at 5 min and analyzed. Rats fed the n-6 PUFA deficient compared with adequate diet had significantly reduced n-6 PUFA concentrations in brain phospholipids but increased eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5n-3), docosapentaenoic acid n-3 (DPAn-3, 22:5n-3), and DHA (by 9.4%) concentrations, particularly in ethanolamine glycerophospholipid (EtnGpl). Incorporation rates of unesterified DHA from plasma, which represent DHA metabolic loss from brain, were increased 45% in brain phospholipids, as was DHA turnover. Increased DHA metabolism following dietary n-6 PUFA deprivation may increase brain concentrations of antiinflammatory DHA metabolites, which with a reduced brain n-6 PUFA content, likely promotes neuroprotection and alters neurotransmission. 相似文献

This study examines the transfer of lipids from the yolk to the embryo of the king penguin, a seabird with a high dietary intake of n-3 fatty acids. The concentrations of total lipid, triacylglycerol (TAG), and phospholipid (PL) in the yolk decreased by ~80% between days 33 and 55 of development, indicating intensive lipid transfer, whereas the concentration of cholesteryl ester (CE) increased threefold, possibly due to recycling. Total lipid concentration in plasma and liver of the embryo increased by twofold from day 40 to hatching due to the accumulation of CE. Yolk lipids contained high amounts of C(20-22) n-3 fatty acids with 22:6(n-3) forming 4 and 10% of the fatty acid mass in TAG and PL, respectively. Both TAG and PL of plasma and liver contained high proportions of 22:6(n-3) ( approximately 15% in plasma and >20% in liver at day 33); liver PL also contained a high proportion of 20:4(n-6) (14%). Thus both 22:6(n-3) and 20:4(n-6), which are, respectively, abundant and deficient in the yolk, undergo biomagnification during transfer to the embryo. 相似文献

Male rat pups at weaning (21 days of age) were subjected to a diet deficient or adequate in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) for 15 weeks. Performance on tests of locomotor activity, depression, and aggression was measured in that order during the ensuing 3 weeks, after which brain lipid composition was determined. In the n-3 PUFA-deprived rats, compared with n-3 PUFA-adequate rats, docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3) in brain phospholipid was reduced by 36% and docosapentaenoic acid (22:5n-6) was elevated by 90%, whereas brain phospholipid concentrations were unchanged. N-3 PUFA-deprived rats had a significantly increased (P = 0.03) score on the Porsolt forced-swim test for depression, and increased blocking time (P = 0.03) and blocking number (P = 0.04) scores (uncorrected for multiple comparisons) on the isolation-induced resident-intruder test for aggression. Large effect sizes (d > 0.8) were found on the depression score and on the blocking time score of the aggression test. Scores on the open-field test for locomotor activity did not differ significantly between groups, and had only small to medium effect sizes. This single-generational n-3 PUFA-deprived rat model, which demonstrated significant changes in brain lipid composition and in test scores for depression and aggression, may be useful for elucidating the contribution of disturbed brain PUFA metabolism to human depression, aggression, and bipolar disorder. 相似文献

Polymorphonuclear leukocytes from healthy volunteers (HPMN) generated superoxide (O2*-) following treatment with various stimuli, such as phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), opsonized zymozan (OZ) and arachidonic acid (AA). Other types of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAS), such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), also stimulated O2*- generation. The free form of DHA enhanced the generation of O2*- induced by PMA but inhibited that induced by OZ. In contrast, the ethylester of DHA (DHA-E) inhibited O2*- generation induced by PMA but stimulated that induced by OZ. Similar effects were also observed with ethylesters of EPA (EPA-E), DPA (DPA-E) and AA (AA-E). High concentrations of DHA-E reduced the PMA-induced formation of superoxide without affecting the cellular activity of protein kinase C (PKC). Similar phenomena were also observed with oral neutrophils from healthy volunteers (OPMN). These results indicate that PUFAS and their esters affect 02*- generation in human PMN via different pathways, thereby modulating inflammatory reactions. 相似文献

Hydroperoxides produced by n-6 lipoxygenation of arachidonic and linoleic acids potentiate synthesis of prostacyclin related compounds 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In a previous paper we reported that arachidonic acid (20:4(n-6] strongly enhances the endothelial cell synthesis of prostaglandin I3 (PGI3) from eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5(n-3], in stimulating the cyclooxygenase rather than the prostacyclin synthase (Bordet et al. (1986) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 135, 403-410). In the present study, endothelial cell monolayers were co-incubated with exogenous 20:5(n-3) or docosatetraenoic acid (22:4(n-6], and n-6 lipoxygenase products of 20:4(n-6) or linoleic acid (18:2(n-6], namely 15-HPETE and 13-HPOD, respectively. Prostaglandins or dihomoprostaglandins were then measured by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Both hydroperoxides, up to 20 microM, stimulated the cyclooxygenation of 20:5(n-3) and 22:4(n-6), in particular the formation of PGI3 and dihomo-PGI2, respectively. Higher concentrations inhibited prostacyclin synthetase. In contrast, the reduced products of hydroperoxides, 15-HETE and 13-HOD, failed to stimulate these cyclooxygenations, 13-HPOD appeared more potent than 15-HPETE and the cyclooxygenation of 22:4(n-6) seemed to require higher amounts of hydroperoxides to be efficiently metabolized than 20:5(n-3). These data suggest that prostacyclin potential of endothelium might be enhanced by raising the peroxide tone. 相似文献
