During neurodevelopment neurons increase phospholipid synthesis to generate additional plasma membrane that makes up the growing neurites. Compared with most cell types, neurons contain a high percentage of the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). By utilizing PC12 cell lines as a model neuronal cell line, we examined the internalization rate of AA, DHA, and non-essential oleic acid (OA), as well as their effects on neurite outgrowth. When wild type cells were differentiated, the rate of AA and DHA internalization increased 50% more than the rate of OA internalization. When media were supplemented with AA or DHA, the average neurite length was increased by approximately 40%, but supplementation with the same amount of OA had no effect. We also increased the levels of acyl-CoA synthetase-1 (ACS1) and ACS2 proteins to determine whether they contribute to PUFA internalization or neurite outgrowth. Overexpression of ACS1 increased the rate of OA internalization by 55%, and AA and DHA uptake was increased by 25%, but there was no significant change in neurite outgrowth. In ACS2-overexpressing cells, in contrast, the rate of OA internalization increased by 90%, AA by 115%, and DHA by 70%. The average aggregate neurite length in ACS2-overexpressing cells was increased by approximately 40% when the media were supplemented with PUFAs, but there was no change with OA supplementation. Taken together, these results support the hypotheses that ACSs are rate-limiting for fatty acid internalization and that ACS2 enhances neurite outgrowth by promoting PUFA internalization. 相似文献

We have shown previously that docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) promotes and arachidonic acid (AA) suppresses neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells induced by nerve growth factor (NGF) and that incorporation of [3H]ethanolamine into phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) is suppressed in PC12 cells by AA while DHA has no effect. In the present study, the effects of these fatty acids on PE synthesis via decarboxylation of phosphatidylserine (PS), another pathway of PE synthesis, and distribution of aminophospholipids were examined. Incorporation of [3H]serine into PS and PE was elevated in the course of NGF-induced differentiation and was further stimulated significantly by DHA, but not by AA. [3H]Ethanolamine uptake by PC12 cells was significantly suppressed by AA but not by DHA while these fatty acids did not affect [3H]serine uptake, indicating that the suppression by AA of [3H]ethanolamine incorporation into phosphatidylethanolamine is attributable, at least in part, to a reduction in [3H]ethanolamine uptake. The distribution of PE in the outer leaflet of plasma membrane decreased during differentiation, which is known to be accompanied by an increase in the surface area of plasma membrane. Supplementation of PC12 cells with DHA or AA did not affect the distribution of aminophospholipids. Thus, DHA and AA affected aminophospholipid synthesis and neurite outgrowth differently, but not the transport and distribution of aminophospholipids, while the PE concentration in the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane decreased in association with morphological changes in PC12 cells induced by NGF. 相似文献

Anandamide (AEA) is an endogenous agonist for the cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2) which is expressed in osteoblasts. Arachidonic acid (AA) is the precursor for AEA and dietary n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are known to reduce the concentrations of AA in tissues and cells. Therefore, we hypothesized that n-3 PUFA, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which reduce AA in cells, could lower AEA in osteoblasts by altering enzyme expression of the endocannabinoid (EC) system. MC3T3-E1 osteoblast-like cells were grown for 6, 10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 days in osteogenic medium. Osteoblasts were treated with 10 μM of AA, EPA, DHA, oleic acid (OA) or EPA+DHA (5 μM each) for 72 h prior to their collection for measurement of mRNA and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity. Compared to vehicle control, osteoblasts treated with AA had higher levels of AA and n-6 PUFA while those treated with EPA and DHA had lower n-6 but higher n-3 PUFA. Independent of the fatty acid treatments, osteoblasts matured normally as evidenced by ALP activity. N-acyl phosphatidylethanolamine-selective phospholipase D (NAPE-PLD), fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and CB2 mRNA expression were higher at 20 days compared to 10 days. NAPE-PLD and CB2 mRNA was lower in osteoblasts treated with EPA compared to all other groups. Thus, mRNA expression for NAPE-PLD, FAAH, and CB2 increased during osteoblast maturation and EPA reduced mRNA for NAPE-PLD and CB2 receptor. In conclusion, EPA lowered mRNA levels for proteins of the EC system and mRNA for AEA synthesis/degradation is reported in osteoblasts. 相似文献

Expression of E-FABP in PC12 cells increases neurite extension during differentiation: involvement of n-3 and n-6 fatty acids 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Epidermal fatty acid-binding protein (E-FABP), a member of the family of FABPs, exhibits a robust expression in neurons during axonal growth in development and in nerve regeneration following nerve injury. This study examines the impact of E-FABP expression in normal neurite extension in differentiating pheochromocytoma cell (PC12) cultures supplemented with selected long chain free fatty acids (LCFFA). We found that E-FABP binds to a broad range of saturated and unsaturated LCFFAs, including those with potential interest for neuronal differentiation and axonal growth such as C22:6n-3 docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), C20:5n-3 eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and C20:4n-6 arachidonic acid (ARA). PC12 cells exposed to nerve growth factor (NGFDPC12) exhibit high E-FABP expression that is blocked by mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor U0126. Nerve growth factor-differentiated pheochromocytoma cells (NGFDPC12) antisense clones (NGFDPC12-AS) which exhibit low E-FABP expression have fewer/shorter neurites than cells transfected with vector only or NGFDPC12 sense cells (NGFDPC12-S). Replenishing NGFDPC12-AS cells with biotinylated recombinant E-FABP (biotin-E-FABP) protein restores normal neurite outgrowth. Cellular localization of biotin-E-FABP in NGFDPC12 was detected mostly in the cytoplasm and in the nuclear region. Treatment of NGFDPC12 with DHA, EPA, or ARA further enhances neurite length but it does not trigger further induction of TrkA or MEK phosphorylation or E-FABP mRNA observed in differentiating PC12 cells without LCFFA supplementation. Significantly, DHA and EPA neurite stimulating effects are higher in NGFDPC12-S than in NGFDPC12-AS cells. These findings are consistent with the scenario that neurite extension of differentiating PC12 cells, including further stimulation by DHA and EPA, requires sufficient cellular levels of E-FABP. 相似文献

The synthesis of phospholipids in mammalian cells is regulated by the availability of three critical precursor pools: those of choline, cytidine triphosphate and diacylglycerol. Diacylglycerols containing polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) apparently are preferentially utilized for phosphatide synthesis. PUFAs are known to play an important role in the development and function of mammalian brains. We therefore studied the effects of unsaturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids on the overall rates of phospholipid biosynthesis in PC12 rat pheochromocytoma cells. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5n-3) and arachidonic acid (AA, 20:4n-6) all significantly stimulated the incorporation of (14)C-choline into total cellular phospholipids. In contrast, monounsaturated oleic acid (OA) and the saturated palmitic (PA) and stearic (SA) acids did not have this effect. The action of DHA was concentration-dependent between 5 and 50 microM; it became statistically significant by 3 h after DHA treatment and then increased over the ensuing 3 h. DHA was preferentially incorporated into phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and phosphatidylserine (PS), while AA predominated in phosphatidylcholine (PC). 相似文献

Acyl coenzyme A synthetase long-chain family members (ACSLs) are a family of enzymes that convert long-chain free fatty acids into their acyl-CoAs and play an important role in fatty acid metabolism. Here we show the role of ACSL isozymes in interleukin (IL)-1β-induced arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism in rat fibroblastic 3Y1 cells. Treatment of 3Y1 cells with triacsin C, an ACSL inhibitor, markedly enhanced the IL-1β-induced prostaglandin (PG) biosynthesis. Small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of endogenous Acsl4 expression increased significantly the release of AA metabolites, including PGE2, PGD2, and PGF2α, compared with replicated control cells, whereas knockdown of Acsl1 expression reduced the IL-1β-induced release of AA metabolites. Experiments with double knockdown of Acsl4 and intracellular phospholipase A2 (PLA2) isozymes revealed that cytosolic PLA2α, but not calcium-independent PLA2s, is involved in the Acsl4 knockdown-enhanced PG biosynthesis. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry of cellular phospholipids bearing AA showed that the levels of some, if not all, phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylinositol species in Acsl4 knockdown cells were decreased after IL-1β stimulation, while those in control cells were not so obviously decreased. In Acsl1 knockdown cells, the levels of some AA-bearing PC species were reduced even in the unstimulated condition. Collectively, these results suggest that Acsl isozymes play distinct roles in the control of AA remodeling in rat fibroblasts: Acsl4 acts as the first step of enzyme for AA remodeling following IL-1β stimulation, and Acsl1 is involved in the maintenance of some AA-containing PC species. 相似文献

The fetal demand for docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) has to be satisfied by the mother. We determined the fatty acids in maternal plasma non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA), triacylglycerol (TAG) and phosphatidylcholine (PC), in a cross-sectional study of non-pregnant (n = 10), pregnant (n = 19), and postpartum (n = 9) women. There were lipid class-dependent differences in plasma polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) concentrations between groups. During pregnancy, DHA was most highly enriched in PC, about 230%, with more modest enrichment for linoleic acid (LA) and arachidonic acid (AA), and no enrichment of alpha-linolenic acid (alpha-LNA). There was relative enrichment of LA, AA and alpha-LNA in TAG, but not of DHA. There was no specific enrichment of any PUFA in the NEFA pool. These data accord with the suggestion that the enrichment of alpha-LNA in TAG and of DHA in phospholipids reflects hepatic regulation of n-3 PUFA metabolism which potentially enhances the delivery of DHA to the placenta. 相似文献

Previous studies suggested that women synthesise docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) more efficiently from their precursors than men. This study investigated the relationship between diet, platelet phospholipids fatty acids and gender. Dietary intake and platelet phosphatidyl-choline (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) fatty acids were determined in Caucasian 40 men and 34 women. Absolute and %energy intakes of arachidonic acid (AA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and DHA, and the ratios of total n-6/n-3 PUFA and linoleic/alpha-linolenic acids did not differ between the sexes. However, women had higher DHA in PC (1.19 vs 1.05 wt%, p<0.05) and PE (3.62 vs 3.21 wt%, p<0.05) than men. Also EPA (1.10 vs 0.93 wt%, p<0.05) was higher in women's PE. Conversely, men had elevated AA and total n-6 fatty acids in PC. The higher platelet DHA levels and lower platelet AA/EPA and AA/DHA ratios in women of child-bearing age compared with men, may lead to less platelet aggregation and vaso-occlusion. 相似文献

We previously reported that docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) attenuated tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-induced apoptosis in human monocytic U937 cells (J. Nutr. 130: 1095-1101, 2000). In the present study, we examined the effects of DHA and other polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on TNF-induced necrosis, another mode of cell death, using L929 murine fibrosarcoma cells. After preincubation with PUFA conjugated with BSA for 24 h, cells were treated with TNF or TNF+actinomycin D (Act D). Preincubation of cells with DHA enriched this polyunsaturated acid in the phospholipids and attenuated cell death induced by either TNF or TNF+Act D. When cells were treated with TNF alone, DNA laddering was not detected, and cells were coincidently stained with both annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide, indicating that the death mode was necrotic. TNF+Act D predominantly induced necrosis, although concurrent apoptotic cell death was also observed in this case. Preincubation with oleic acid, linoleic acid or 20:3(n-3) did not affect TNF-induced necrosis. Conversely, supplementation with n-3 docosapentaenoic acid (DPAn-3) or eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) reduced necrotic cell death, but to a lesser extent in comparison with DHA. Unlike the case of U937 cell apoptosis, arachidonic acid (AA) significantly attenuated L929 cell necrosis, and 20:3(n-6) or 22:4(n-6) showed similar or less activity, respectively. Statistical evaluation indicated that the order of effective PUFA activity was DHA>DPAn-3> or =EPA>AA approximately 20:3(n-6)> or =22:4(n-6). One step desaturation, C2 elongation or C2 cleavage within the n-6 or n-3 fatty acid group was probably very active in L929 cells, because AA, synthesized from 20:3(n-6) or 22:4(n-6), and C22 fatty acids, synthesized from AA or EPA, were preferentially retained in cellular phospholipids. These observations suggested that attenuation of TNF-induced necrosis by the supplementation of various C20 or C22 polyunsaturated fatty acids is mainly attributable to the enrichment of three kinds of polyunsaturated fatty acids, i.e., DHA, DPAn-3 or AA, in phospholipids. Among these fatty acids, DHA was the most effective in the reduction of L929 necrosis as observed in the case of U937 apoptosis. This suggests that DHA-enriched membranes can protect cell against TNF irrespective of death modes and that membranous DHA may abrogate the death signaling common to necrosis and apoptosis. 相似文献

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is important in the progression of epithelial tumors. Evidence indicates that omega-6 PUFAs such as arachidonic acid (AA) promote the growth of tumor cells; however, omega-3 fatty acids [eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)] inhibit tumor cell proliferation. We investigated the effects of omega-3 PUFA on the expression and function of COX-2 in 70W, a human melanoma cell line that metastasizes to the brain in nude mice. We show that 1) tumor necrosis factor-alpha upregulates the expression of both COX-2 mRNA and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production, and 2) omega-3 and omega-6 PUFA regulate COX-2 mRNA expression and PGE2 production. AA increased COX-2 mRNA expression and prostaglandin production in omega-6-stimulated 70W cells. Conversely, COX-2 mRNA expression decreased in cells incubated with EPA or DHA. AA increased Matrigel invasion 2.4-fold, whereas EPA or DHA did not. Additionally, PGE2 increased in vitro invasion 2.5-fold, whereas exposure to PGE3 significantly decreased invasion. Our results demonstrate that incubation of 70W cells with either AA or PGE2 increased invasiveness, whereas incubation with EPA or DHA downregulated both COX-2 mRNA and protein expression, with a subsequent decrease in Matrigel invasion. Taken together, these results indicate that omega-3 PUFA regulate COX-2-mediated invasion in brain-metastatic melanoma. 相似文献

Epidemiological studies and interventional clinical trials indicate that consumption of long chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC n-3 PUFA) such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) lengthen gestational duration. Although the mechanisms are not well understood, prostaglandins (PG) of the 2-series are known to play a role in the initiation and progress of labor. In animal studies, modest DHA provision has been shown to reduce placental and uterine PGE(2) and PGF(2α), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 expression, and placental collagenase activity. However, modulation of PG biosynthesis may not account for all the effects of LC n-3 PUFAs in labor. We investigated one potential PG-independent mechanism of LC PUFA action using cultured pregnant human myometrial smooth muscle cells. Our goal was to characterize the effect of LC PUFA treatment on oxytocin signaling, a potent uterotonic hormone involved in labor. The addition of 10 μM-100 μM DHA or arachidonic acid (AA) to the culture media for 48 h resulted in dose dependent enrichment of these fatty acids in membrane lipid. DHA and AA significantly inhibited phosphatidylinositol turnover and [Ca(2+)](i) mobilization with oxytocin stimulation compared to bovine serum albumin control and equimolar oleic acid. DHA and AA significantly reduced oxytocin receptor membrane concentration without altering binding affinity or rate of receptor internalization. These findings demonstrate a role for LC n-3 PUFAs in regulation of oxytocin signaling and provide new insight into additional mechanisms pertaining to reports of dietary fish and fish oil consumption prolonging gestation. 相似文献

Pathological conditions in the brain, such as ischemia, trauma and seizure are accompanied by increased levels of free n-6 and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), mainly arachidonic acid (AA, 20:4n-6) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3). A neuroprotective role has been suggested for PUFA. For investigation of the potential molecular mechanisms involved in neuroprotection by PUFA, we studied the regulation of the concentration of intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in rat brain astrocytes. We evaluated the presence of extracellular PUFA and the release of intracellular PUFA. Interestingly, only the constitutive brain PUFA AA and DHA, but not eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) had prominent effects on intracellular Ca2+. AA and DHA suppressed [Ca2+]i oscillation, inhibited store-operated Ca2+ entry, and reduced the amplitudes of Ca2+ responses evoked by agonists of G protein-coupled receptors. Moreover, prolonged exposure of astrocytes to AA and DHA brought the cells to a new steady state of a moderately elevated [Ca2+]i level, where the cells became virtually insensitive to external stimuli. This new steady state can be considered as a mechanism of self-protection. It isolates disturbed parts of the brain, because AA and DHA reduce pathological overstimulation in the tissue surrounding the damaged area. In inflammation-related events, frequently AA and DHA exhibit opposite effects. However, in astrocytes AA and DHA exerted comparable effects on [Ca2+]i. Extracellularly added AA and DHA, but not EPA, were also able to induce the release of [3H]AA from prelabeled astrocytes. Therefore, we also suggest the involvement of phospholipase A2 activation and lysophospholipid generation in the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ in astrocytes. 相似文献

Transient Receptor Potential Canonical (TRPC) channels are implicated in modulating neurite outgrowth. The expression pattern of TRPCs changes significantly during brain development, suggesting that fine-tuning TRPC expression may be important for orchestrating neuritogenesis. To study how alterations in the TRPC expression pattern affect neurite outgrowth, we used nerve growth factor (NGF)-differentiated rat pheochromocytoma 12 (PC12) cells, a model system for neuritogenesis. In PC12 cells, NGF markedly up-regulated TRPC1 and TRPC6 expression, but down-regulated TRPC5 expression while promoting neurite outgrowth. Overexpression of TRPC1 augmented, whereas TRPC5 overexpression decelerated NGF-induced neurite outgrowth. Conversely, shRNA-mediated knockdown of TRPC1 decreased, whereas shRNA-mediated knockdown of TRPC5 increased NGF-induced neurite extension. Endogenous TRPC1 attenuated the anti-neuritogenic effect of overexpressed TRPC5 in part by forming the heteromeric TRPC1-TRPC5 channels. Previous reports suggested that TRPC6 may facilitate neurite outgrowth. However, we found that TRPC6 overexpression slowed down neuritogenesis, whereas dominant negative TRPC6 (DN-TRPC6) facilitated neurite outgrowth in NGF-differentiated PC12 cells. Consistent with these findings, hyperforin, a neurite outgrowth promoting factor, decreased TRPC6 expression in NGF-differentiated PC12 cells. Using pharmacological and molecular biological approaches, we determined that NGF up-regulated TRPC1 and TRPC6 expression via a p75(NTR)-IKK(2)-dependent pathway that did not involve TrkA receptor signaling in PC12 cells. Similarly, NGF up-regulated TRPC1 and TRPC6 via an IKK(2) dependent pathway in primary cultured hippocampal neurons. Thus, our data suggest that a balance of TRPC1, TRPC5, and TRPC6 expression determines neurite extension rate in neural cells, with TRPC6 emerging as an NGF-dependent "molecular damper" maintaining a submaximal velocity of neurite extension. 相似文献

Changes in fatty acids metabolism during differentiation of Atlantic salmon preadipocytes; effects of n-3 and n-9 fatty acids 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) preadipocytes, isolated from visceral adipose tissue, differentiate from an unspecialized fibroblast like cell type to mature adipocytes filled with lipid droplets in culture. The expression of the adipogenic gene markers peroxisome proliferated activated receptor (PPAR) alpha, lipoprotein lipase (LPL), microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP), fatty acid transport protein (FATP) 1 and fatty acid binding protein (FABP) 3 increased during differentiation. In addition, we describe a novel alternatively spliced form of PPARgamma (PPARgamma short), the expression of which increased during differentiation. Eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5n-3, EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3, DHA) lowered the triacylglycerol (TAG) accumulation in mature salmon adipocytes compared to oleic acid (18:1n-9, OA). This finding indicates that a reduced level of highly unsaturated n-3 fatty acids (HUFAs) in fish diets, when the traditional marine oil is exchanged for n-9 fatty acids (FAs) rich vegetable oils (VOs), may influence visceral fat deposition in salmonids. Moreover, major differences in the metabolism of EPA, DHA and OA at different stages during differentiation of adipocytes occur. Most of the EPA and DHA were oxidized in preadipocytes, while they were mainly stored in TAGs in mature adipocytes in contrast to OA which was primarily stored in TAGs at all stages of differentiation. 相似文献

The relationships between membrane fatty acid modification and neurite outgrowth and norepinephrine release were evaluated in PC12 cells. [3H]Norepinephrine release evoked by carbachol was unaffected by the modifications. Basal spontaneous release was elevated with increases in the degree of unsaturation using cells supplemented with n-3 fatty acids; a reverse correlation was observed for [3H]norepinephrine uptake. Supplementation of PC12 cells with either n-6 fatty acids or 18:1 also increased the basal release and decreased the uptake. Docosahexaenoic acid promoted and arachidonic acid suppressed neurite outgrowth induced by nerve growth factor. Choline acetyltransferase activity was slightly influenced by these fatty acids. Thus, modifications of PC12 cells with arachidonic acid and docosahexaenoic acid had a relatively small effect on the degree of differentiation but had pronounced but opposite effects on neurite elongation. Ethanolamine glycerophospholipid synthesis was elevated during differentiation induced by nerve growth factor and it was suppressed by added arachidonic acid but not by docosahexaenoic acid. Our results raise the possibility that the decreased phospholipid synthesis caused by arachidonate may lead to the suppression of neurite elongation. 相似文献

Epidemiologic and experimental studies suggest that dietary fatty acids influence the development and progression of breast cancer. However, no clear data are present in literature that could demonstrate how n?-?3 PUFA can interfere with breast cancer growth. It is suggested that these fatty acids might change the structure of cell membrane, especially of lipid rafts. During this study we treated MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells with AA, EPA, and DHA to assess if they are incorporated in lipid raft phospholipids and are able to change chemical and physical properties of these structures. Our data demonstrate that PUFA and their metabolites are inserted with different yield in cell membrane microdomains and are able to alter fatty acid composition without decreasing the total percentage of saturated fatty acids that characterize these structures. In particular in MDA-MB-231 cells, that displays the highest content of Chol and saturated fatty acids, we observed the lowest incorporation of DHA, probably for sterical reasons; nevertheless DHA was able to decrease Chol and SM content. Moreover, PUFA are incorporated in breast cancer lipid rafts with different specificity for the phospholipid moiety, in particular PUFA are incorporated in PI, PS, and PC phospholipids that may be relevant to the formation of PUFA metabolites (prostaglandins, prostacyclins, leukotrienes, resolvines, and protectines) of phospholipids deriving second messengers and signal transduction activation. The bio-physical changes after n?-?3 PUFA incubation have also been highlighted by atomic force microscopy. In particular, for both cell lines the DHA treatment produced a decrease of the lipid rafts in the order of about 20-30?%. It is worth noticing that after DHA incorporation lipid rafts exhibit two different height ranges. In fact, some lipid rafts have a higher height of 6-6.5?nm. In conclusion n?-?3 PUFA are able to modify lipid raft biochemical and biophysical features leading to decrease of breast cancer cell proliferation probably through different mechanisms related to acyl chain length and unsaturation. While EPA may contribute to cell apoptosis mainly through decrease of AA concentration in lipid raft phospholipids, DHA may change the biophysical properties of lipid rafts decreasing the content of cholesterol and probably the distribution of key proteins. 相似文献

In this study we demonstrated that two polyunsaturated fatty acids, arachidonic acid (AA, n-6) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, n-3), modulate the secretion of bile salt-dependent lipase (BSDL) by pancreatic AR4-2J cells. The effects of AA and DHA were also compared with that of the monounsaturated fatty acid, oleic acid (OA). Our results showed that the chronic treatment of cells with AA or DHA, that did not affect the biosynthesis rate of BSDL, similarly decreased the amount of secreted BSDL and perturbed the intracellular partitioning of the enzyme, whereas OA had no effect. Particularly, AA and DHA induced the retention of the enzyme in microsomes and lowered its content in the cell cytosol. We have further shown that AA treatment decreased the ubiquitination of the protein, and consequently diminished its export toward the cytosol, a result that might explain the retention of BSDL in microsomes and correlated with membrane phospholipids alteration. The retained protein was further degraded by a nonproteasomal pathway that likely involves ATP-dependent endoplasmic reticulum proteases. These findings concerning the regulation of the pancreatic BSDL secretion by two polyunsaturated acids, AA and DHA, might be of physiological importance in the plasmatic and cellular cholesterol homeostasis. 相似文献

The present study highlights the important association between lipid alterations and differentiation/apoptotic responses in human colon differentiating (FHC) and nondifferentiating (HCT-116) cell lines after their treatment with short-chain fatty acid sodium butyrate (NaBt), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), and/or their combination. Our data from GC/MS and LC/MS/MS showed an effective incorporation and metabolization of the supplemented arachidonic acid (AA) or docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), resulting in an enhanced content of the respective PUFA in individual phospholipid (PL) classes and an altered composition of the whole cellular fatty acid spectrum in both FHC and HCT-116 cells. We provide novel evidence that NaBt combined with PUFAs additionally modulated AA and DHA cellular levels and caused their shift from triacylglycerol to PL fractions. NaBt increased, while AA, DHA and their combination with NaBt decreased endogenous fatty acid synthesis in FHC but not in HCT-116 cells. Fatty acid treatment also altered membrane lipid structure, augmented cytoplasmic lipid droplet accumulation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and dissipation of the mitochondrial membrane potential. All these parameters were significantly enhanced by combined NaBt/PUFA treatment, but only in FHC cells was this accompanied by highly increased apoptosis and suppressed differentiation. Moreover, the most significant changes of ROS production, differentiation and apoptosis among the parameters studied, the highest effects of combined NaBt/PUFA treatment and a lower sensitivity of HCT-116 cells were confirmed using two-way ANOVA. Our results demonstrate an important role of fatty acid-induced lipid alterations in the different apoptotic/differentiation response of colon cells with various carcinogenic potential. 相似文献

As a first step in determining the mechanism of action of specific fatty acids on immunological function of macrophages, a comparative study of the effect of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in the medium was conducted in two macrophage cell lines, J774A.1 and WEHI-3. The baseline fatty-acid profiles of the two cell lines differed in the % distribution of saturated (SFA) and unsaturated fatty acids (UFA). J774A.1 cells had a higher % of SFA (primarily palmitic acid) than WEHI-3 cells. Conversely, WEHI-3 cells had a higher % of UFA (primarily oleic acid) than J774A.1 cells. Neither cell line had detectable amounts of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) or eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). The most abundant polyunsaturated fatty acid in both cells lines was arachidonic acid (AA). The efficiency of transport of fatty acids from the medium to the macrophages by two delivery vehicles (BSA complexes and ethanolic suspensions) was compared. Overall, fatty acids were transported satisfactorily by both delivery systems. Alpha-linolenic acid and doscosahexenoic acid (DHA) were transported more efficiently by the ethanolic suspension system. Linoleic acid (LA) was taken up more completely than ALA, and DHA was taken up more completely than EPA by both cell cultures and delivery systems. A dose-response effect was demonstrated for LA, ALA, EPA and DHA in both J774A.1 and WEHI-3 cells. Addition of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) to the cell cultures modified the total lipid fatty acid composition of the cells. The presence of ALA in the culture medium resulted in a significant decrease in AA in both cell lines. The omega-3/omega-6 fatty acid ratio (omega-3/omega-6), polyunsaturated/saturated fatty acid ratio (P/S), and unsaturation index (UI) increased directly with the amount of PUFA and omega-3 fatty acid provided in the medium. The results indicate that the macrophage cell lines have similar, but not identical, fatty acid profiles that may be the result of differences in fatty acid metabolism. These distinctions could in turn produce differences in immunological function. The ethanol fatty-acid delivery system, when compared with the fatty acid-BSA complex system, is preferable for measurement of dose-response effects, because the cellular fatty acid content increased in proportion to the amount of fatty acid provided in the medium. Similar dose-response results were observed in a previous in vivo study using flaxseed, rich in ALA, as a source of PUFA. 相似文献
