Erythrocyte membranes from multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and normal individuals were studied by electron spin resonance spectroscopy, osmotic fragility tests, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and fatty acid analysis of membrane lipids. There was no significant difference in the membrane fluidity between MS and normal erythrocytes using fatty acid spin labels with the nitroxide moiety on carbons 5, 12, or 16 from the carboxyl group. Linoleic acid, which has been reported to decrease the absolute electrophoretic mobility of only MS erythrocytes, increased the fluidity of MS and normal erythrocyte membranes to a similar extent. The osmotic fragility of MS erythrocytes obtained from outpatients was similar to normal control cells but the osmotic fragility of erythrocytes obtained from hospitalized MS patients was greater than normal. Scanning electron microscopy of MS erythrocytes revealed no gross abnormalities. Cells incubated with linoleic acid had transformed from discocytes into sphero-echinocytes with prominent membrane surface indentations but MS and normal erythrocytes appeared identical. Of the fatty acid content of the total lipid extract, erythrocytes from most, but not all, MS hospitalized patients and some patients with other demyelinating diseases had relatively less (P<.001) 18:2 than the normal cells. These results indicate that at least some of the abnormalities reported in MS erythrocytes may only be found in hospitalized patients and may be due to other complications of the disease. They also indicate that the reported abnormal effects of linoleic acid on the electrophoretic mobility of MS erythrocytes may be caused by some other mechanism than an effect on the fluidity of the bilayer. 相似文献

The effect of environmental ethanol concentration on the fatty acid composition of strains of Lactobacillus hilgardii, differing in their tolerance to ethanol, was determined. A marked increase in the proportion of lactobacillic acid (a cyclopropane fatty acid) and a decrease in oleic and vaccenic acids with increasing ethanol concentration was observed. The amount of lactobacillic acid determined at standard conditions (25°C, 0% ethanol) was found to be proportional to the ethanol tolerance of the strains studied. The effect of this alcohol on plasma membrane fluidity was studied by differential scanning calorimetry. The adaptive response to growth in the presence of high concentrations of ethanol produced membranes which, within the limits of ethanol tolerance, maintained the fluidity and integrity in an environment which tends to increase membrane rigidity. When pre-adapted cells are analysed in the absence of environmental ethanol there is a measurabie increase in fluidity. It is proposed that this phenomenon may be correlated with the increase in the proportion of lactobacillic acid. The existence of a relationship between membrane fluidity and ethanol tolerance is discussed. 相似文献

Effect of chronic alcohol consumption on rat brain microsome lipid composition, membrane fluidity and Na+-K+-ATPase activity 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The present study reports differences in phospholipid classes, fatty acids of individual phospholipids, and changes in membrane fluidity and Na+-K+-ATPase activity in brain microsomes of rats maintained on an alcohol diet for 35 days compared to sex, age and weight-matched control rats maintained on a calorically-equivalent, non-alcohol diet. Although no difference in Na+-K+-ATPase activity was found in microsomes from alcohol vs control rats when measured in the absence of added alcohol, the presence of low concentrations of ethanol (less than 100 mM) stimulated, while high concentrations (greater than 100 mM) inhibited enzyme activity. The stimulation was differentially expressed in that the microsomal enzyme from alcohol rats was stimulated to a lesser extent than the enzyme from control rats. However, the inhibiting effect of high concentrations of alcohol was similar in microsomes from both alcohol and control rats. Also in membranes from alcohol rats, there was a lower quantity of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and higher quantities of phosphatidylserine (PS) and phosphatidylinositol (PI) compared to membranes from control rats. The major change in fatty acid composition was a reduction in the level of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which was particularly evident in PI and PS. The linoleic acid: arachidonic acid ratio (18:2/20:4) and the saturation:unsaturation ratio were also increased in PI and PS in membranes from alcohol animals. However, the ratio of n-6/n-3 fatty acids remained the same or was reduced in membranes from alcoholic animals. Although no difference in the inherent "fluidity" of membranes from alcohol vs control rats could be demonstrated by electron paramagnetic resonance, molecular tolerance to ethanol was demonstrated in the membranes from alcohol rats by the resistance to the disordering effects of added ethanol. 相似文献

The effect of ethanol on the cytoplasmic membrane of Oenococcus oeni cells and the role of membrane changes in the acquired tolerance to ethanol were investigated. Membrane tolerance to ethanol was defined as the resistance to ethanol-induced leakage of preloaded carboxyfluorescein (cF) from cells. To probe the fluidity of the cytoplasmic membrane, intact cells were labeled with doxyl-stearic acids and analyzed by electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Although the effect of ethanol was noticeable across the width of the membrane, we focused on fluidity changes at the lipid-water interface. Fluidity increased with increasing concentrations of ethanol. Cells responded to growth in the presence of 8% (vol/vol) ethanol by decreasing fluidity. Upon exposure to a range of ethanol concentrations, these adapted cells had reduced fluidity and cF leakage compared with cells grown in the absence of ethanol. Analysis of the membrane composition revealed an increase in the degree of fatty acid unsaturation and a decrease in the total amount of lipids in the cells grown in the presence of 8% (vol/vol) ethanol. Preexposure for 2 h to 12% (vol/vol) ethanol also reduced membrane fluidity and cF leakage. This short-term adaptation was not prevented in the presence of chloramphenicol, suggesting that de novo protein synthesis was not involved. We found a strong correlation between fluidity and cF leakage for all treatments and alcohol concentrations tested. We propose that the protective effect of growth in the presence of ethanol is, to a large extent, based on modification of the physicochemical state of the membrane, i.e., cells adjust their membrane permeability by decreasing fluidity at the lipid-water interface. 相似文献

Alcohols, including ethanol, have a specific effect on transbilayer and lateral membrane domains. Recent evidence has shown that alcohols in vitro have a greater effect on fluidity of one leaflet as compared to the other. The present study examined effects of chronic ethanol consumption on fluidity of synaptic plasma membrane (SPM) exofacial and cytofacial leaflets using trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) labeling and differential polarized fluorometry of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH). Mice were administered ethanol or a control liquid diet for 3 weeks. Animals were killed and SPM prepared. The exofacial leaflet of SPM was significantly more fluid than the cytofacial leaflet in both groups, as indicated by limiting anisotropy of DPH. However, differences between the two leaflets were much smaller in the ethanol-treated group. Ethanol at concentrations seen clinically had a greater effect in vitro on the more fluid exofacial leaflet. This asymmetric effect of ethanol was significantly diminished in the exofacial leaflet of the ethanol-treated mice. Chronic ethanol consumption has a specific effect on membranes. Membrane functions that may be regulated by asymmetry of fluidity and lipid distribution may be altered by chronic ethanol consumption. 相似文献

Organisms adjust the order, or fluidity, of their cellular membranes in response to changes in their physiochemical environment by adjusting the lipid composition of their membranes. We investigated membrane fluidity using the phospholipid, fatty acid and cholesterol content of red blood cells (RBCs) from multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and correlated this with C-reactive protein (CRP) as well as with the severity of neurological outcome as measured by the Kurtzke Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) and its Functional System Scores. The study group consisted of 31 patients with MS and 30 healthy control subjects. Phospholipids were determined using a colorimetric assay, fatty acids by gas chromatography, cholesterol by an enzymatic assay and CRP by a Beckman nephelometer. Cell membrane fluidity was calculated according to previously established formulae. RBC membrane fluidity as measured by the saturated to polyunsaturated fatty acid ratio was higher in patients than in controls (P = 0.04). The phosphatidylethanolamine saturated to polyunsaturated fatty acid ratio showed highly significant positive correlations with the EDSS and CRP < 5 μg/ml. CRP showed significant inverse correlations with the saturated nature but positive correlations with the ordered-crystalline-phase to liquid-crystalline-phase lipid ratio. In this study we show that membrane fluidity as measured by the relationship between membrane fatty acids, phospholipids and cholesterol is closely interrelated with inflammation and disease outcome in patients with MS. In conclusion, our findings suggest that the membrane lipid composition of patients with MS and, consequently, membrane fluidity are altered, which seems to be influenced by the inflammatory status. 相似文献

Increase in the concentration of carbon 18 monounsaturated fatty acids in the liver with hepatitis C: analysis in transgenic mice and humans 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Steatosis is one of the histologic characteristics of chronic hepatitis C and is well reproduced in a transgenic mouse model for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in which the core protein of hepatitis C virus (HCV) plays a pivotal role in inducing steatosis and HCC. In the present study, the lipid composition in the liver of the HCV core gene transgenic mice as well as in those of chronic hepatitis C patients was determined. The concentration of carbon 18 monounsaturated (C18:1) fatty acids, such as oleic and vaccenic acids, which are known to increase membrane fluidity leading to higher cell division rates, significantly increased in the livers of transgenic mice compared to nontransgenic control mice. The concentration of C18:1 fatty acids also significantly increased in the livers of chronic hepatitis C patients compared to subjects without HCV infection. These results suggest that HCV may affect a specific pathway in the lipid metabolism and cause steatosis in the liver. 相似文献

Arrhenius plots were generated on the activity of rat liver mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase from Metrecal-sucrose fed controls and Metrecal-alcohol fed experimentals. Chronic alcohol feeding resulted in diminished specific activity of cytochrome c oxidase and abolition of the discontinuity temperature at 17.5 degrees C found in the controls. Twenty-four hours after alcohol withdrawal, a discontinuity temperature reappeared at 14.4 degrees C; at 48 h it increased to 22.6 degrees C and returned to normal (17.4 degrees C) at 72 h. Such liver mitochondria also showed a decreased capacity to oxidize the acetyl group of acetyl carnitine immediately following prolonged alcohol feeding. When the assay was performed following withdrawal from alcohol 24 h later, oxidation was enhanced and this effect persisted for another 48 h. These latter results revealed a diminished capacity of such mitochondria to oxidize short chain fatty acids during alcohol feeding and the reverse during alcohol withdrawal. These results, complemented by thermographic data obtained through differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) reinforced the view that chronic alcoholic feeding induced adaptive changes in the fluidity of rat liver mitochondrial membrane lipids. Moreover, they demonstrated that in the microenvironment of the membrane-bound enzymes on withdrawal from ethanol, the membrane readapts to the new conditions without alcohol. This involved modulation of membrane structure and function and at the same time demonstrated a role for the membrane in the expression of tolerance and functional dependence on alcohol. 相似文献

Clostridium thermocellum is a candidate organism for consolidated bioprocessing of lignocellulosic biomass into ethanol. However, commercial use is limited
due to growth inhibition at modest ethanol concentrations. Recently, an ethanol-adapted strain of C. thermocellum was produced. Since ethanol adaptation in microorganisms has been linked to modification of membrane lipids, we tested the
hypothesis that ethanol adaptation in C. thermocellum involves lipid modification by comparing the fatty acid composition and membrane anisotropy of wild-type and ethanol-adapted
strains. Derivatization to fatty acid methyl esters provided quantitative lipid analysis. Compared to wild-type, the ethanol-adapted
strain had a larger percentage of fatty acids with chain lengths >16:0 and showed a significant increase in the percentage
of 16:0 plasmalogens. Structural identification of fatty acids was confirmed through mass spectral fragmentation patterns
of picolinyl esters. Ethanol adaptation did not involve modification at sites of methyl branching or the unsaturation index.
Comparison of steady-state fluorescence anisotropy experiments, in the absence and presence of ethanol, provided evidence
for the effects of ethanol on membrane fluidity. In the presence of ethanol, both strains displayed increased fluidity by
approximately 12%. These data support the model that ethanol adaptation was the result of fatty acid changes that increased
membrane rigidity that counter-acted the fluidizing effect of ethanol. 相似文献

Lipid composition of plasma lipoproteins and erythrocyte ghost membranes has been studied in 16 healthy normolipidaemic subjects and in 16 patients affected by primary lipoprotein lipase deficiency, resulting in severe chylomicronaemia and in cholesterol-depleted low-density lipoproteins and high-density lipoproteins. A significant decrease in membrane cholesterol/phospholipid ratio was observed in lipoprotein lipase deficient patients compared to controls (3.27 +/- 0.33 vs. 3.95 +/- 0.50, mean +/- S.D.; P less than 0.0001). There was also an increase in the erythrocyte membrane phosphatidylcholine/sphingomyelin ratio in lipoprotein lipase deficient patients compared to controls (1.53 +/- 0.10 vs. 1.05 +/- 0.13; P less than 0.0001) due to a concurrent increase in phosphatidylcholine and decrease in sphingomyelin relative concentrations in these patients. Erythrocyte ghost membrane fluidity was determined by fluorescence anisotropy and found to be higher in membranes from lipoprotein lipase deficient patients. This increase in membrane fluidity can be attributed in part to changes in membrane cholesterol and phospholipid concentrations in response to abnormal plasma lipoprotein composition. 相似文献

Feeding rats a hyperlipidic diet in which animals were offered daily a variety of high-energy food resulted in a significant increase of serum free fatty acids and a decrease of phospholipids with respect to controls. On the contrary, there were no significant differences in erythrocyte membrane total lipid composition between the two groups. Erythrocyte membranes showed a significant decrease in saturated fatty acid content and a significant increase in (n-6) polyunsaturated fatty acid content; (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids significantly decreased. Membrane fluidity, investigated by fluorescence polarization of diphenylhexatriene, significantly increased in the erythrocyte membranes of the experimental group. These results seem compatible with the decreased saturated/unsaturated fatty acid ratio. A significant decrease of (Na+-K+)ATPase activity occurred in erythrocyte membranes of the experimental group rats with respect to the controls. 相似文献

Heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was prepared from skeletal muscle of chronic alcoholic rats and control rats. Compared with control rat SR, the SR prepared from alcoholic rats is leakier to Ca2+ and has a lower level of maximum storable Ca2+. With in vitro exposure to ethanol, the Ca2+ release of alcoholic rat SR was not enhanced as much as that of SR prepared from control rats. By using the spin-probes 5-, 7-, 12-, and 16-doxylstearic acid, the disordering effect of ethanol on the SR membrane was studied. The results suggest that SR membrane of chronic alcoholic rats is less ordered than that of control rats even in the absence of in vitro ethanol. However, chronic SR membrane shows a greater resistance to the disordering effect of in vitro addition of ethanol than control rat SR. 相似文献

Erythrocyte membranes and their liposomes were prepared from clinically normal dogs and Labrador retrievers with hereditary muscular dystrophy. The static and dynamic components of fluidity of each membrane were then assessed by steady-state fluorescence polarization techniques using limiting hindered fluorescence anisotropy and order parameter values of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) and fluorescence anisotropy values ofdl-2-(9-anthroyl)-stearic acid anddl-12-(9-anthroyl)-stearic acid, respectively. Membrane lipids were extracted and analyzed by thin-layer chromatography and gas chromatography. The results of these studies demonstrated that the lipid fluidity of erythrocyte membranes, and their liposomes, prepared from dystrophic dogs were found to possess significantly lower static and dynamic components of fluidity than control counterparts. Analysis of the composition of membranes from dystrophic dogs revealed a higher ratio of saturated fatty acyl chain/unsaturated chains (w/w) and lower double-bond index. Alterations in the fatty acid composition such as decrease in levels of linoleic (18:2) and arachidonic (20:4) acids and increase in palmitic (16:0) and stearic (18:0) acids were also observed in the membranes of dystrophic animals. These associated fatty acyl alterations could explain, at least in part, the differences in membrane fluidity between dystrophic and control dogs. 相似文献

An effect of haemoperfusion on plasma oxidizing capacity and erythrocyte sensitivity to oxidation was investigated in patients with the chronic uremia. It was found that plasma oxidizing capacity measured with NTB reduction is more pronounced in patients with the chronic uremia than in normal subjects. Oxidizing capacity of plasma is increased at the beginning of haemoperfusion. This effect is clearly seen during single pass of blood through the column with activated carbon. Erythrocyte sensitivity to oxidation following their suspension in the normal saline with phosphate buffer and measured with ascorbic-cyanate test does not differ significantly in patients with the chronic uremia and healthy subjects and does not change markedly during haemoperfusion. 相似文献

Relationship between ethanol tolerance, lipid composition and plasma membrane fluidity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Kloeckera apiculata 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Abstract The lipid composition of a strain of each of two yeasts, Saccharomyces csrevisiae and Kloeckera apiculata , with different ethanol tolerances, was determined for cells grown with or without added ethanol. An increase in the proportion of ergosterol, unsaturated fatty acid levels and the maintenance of phospholipid biosynthesis seemed to be responsible for ethanol tolerance. The association of ethanol tolerance of yeast cells with plasma membrane fluidity, measured by fluorescence anisotropy, is discussed. We propose that an increase in plasma membrane fluidity may be correlated with a decrease in the sterol: phospholipid and sterol: protein ratios and an increase in unsaturation index. 相似文献

Betaine prevents loss of sialic acid residues and peroxidative injury of erythrocyte membrane in ethanol-given rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
To evaluate chronic ethanol toxicity on erythrocyte membrane and preventive action of betaine as a methyl donor, 24 male Wistar albino rats were divided into three groups: control, ethanol and ethanol plus betaine group. Animals were fed 60 ml diet per day for two months. Rats in the ethanol group were fed ethanol 8 g/kg/day. The ethanol + betaine groups were fed ethanol plus betaine (0.5% w/v). After two months, all animals were killed. Malondialdehyde (MDA) and sialic acid (SA) levels were determined in plasma samples. Osmotic fragility tests were performed on whole blood samples and erythrocyte membrane thiol contents were determined using membrane suspensions. Plasma MDA levels in ethanol-given rats were increased significantly compared to the control group of rats (p < 0.05). MDA in the betaine group was significantly lower than that in the ethanol group (p < 0.05). Erythrocyte membrane thiol contents in ethanol group were decreased compared with those of the control group (p < 0.05). Thiol contents were increased slightly after betaine therapy, but this increase was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Plasma sialic acid levels in the ethanol group were significantly higher than in the control group (p < 0.05). Sialic acid was decreased in the betaine group compared to the ethanol group (p < 0.05). In the osmotic fragility test, we observed that chronic ethanol consumption increased erythrocyte hemolysis. Betaine protected against ethanol-induced hemolysis. Our findings show that chronic ethanol administration affects erythrocyte membrane properties and this may be related to oxidative stress. Betaine protects erythrocyte membrane alterations against chronic ethanol toxicity. Therefore betaine as a nutritional agent, may protect ethanol induced clinical problems associated with membrane abnormalities. 相似文献

Erythrocyte membranes from rats raised on a diet with low content of essential fatty acids were studied by osmotic sensitivity tests and spin labeling techniques. This diet induced significant modifications in acylglycerophosphocholine fatty acid composition with regard to 16 : 1, 18 : 1, 18 : 2 (n-6), 20 : 3 (n-9), and 20 : 4 (n-6). No changes in membrane fluidity as monitored by spin label motion were found but the diet caused an increased osmotic sensitivity in essential fatty acid deficient erythrocytes. 50% hemolysis was obtained at a 51.0% dilution of saline with H2O as compared to a 57.0% dilution for the control material. Membrane fluidity was unaffected by γ-irradiation up to 80 krad. 相似文献
