The investigations previously carried out by Grataroli and colleagues (1) to elucidate the relationships between dietary fatty acids, lipid composition, prostaglandin E2 production and phospholipase A2 activity in the rat gastric mucosa are, here, extended. In the present investigations, fatty acid and prostaglandin E2 catabolizing enzymes were assayed in gastric mucosa from rats fed either a low fat diet (corn oil: 4.4% w/w) (referred as control group), a corn oil-enriched diet (17%) or a salmon oil-enriched diet (12.5%) supplemented with corn oil (4.5%) (referred as groups of treated animals) for eight weeks. Peroxisomal fatty acyl-CoA beta-oxidation was induced in the treated animals whereas the activities of catalase and mitochondrial tyramine oxidase were increased and normal, respectively. Mitochondrial acyl-CoA dehydrogenations occurred at higher rates and carnitine acyltransferase activities were enhanced. In addition, the induction of peroxisomal but not mitochondrial prostaglandoyl-E2-CoA beta-oxidation could be demonstrated. Induction of peroxisomal oxidation of fatty acids and prostaglandins is suggested to contribute to the decrease of prostaglandin E2 production in the treated animals, especially those receiving the salmon oil diet, that the above mentioned authors originally reported.  相似文献

Rats fed dietary fats rich in 20- and 22-carbon polyenoic fatty acids deposit less fat and expend more energy at rest than rats fed other types of fats. We hypothesized that this decrease in energetic efficiency was the product of: (a) enhanced peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation and/or (b) the up-regulation of genes encoding proteins that were involved with enhanced heat production, i.e. mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCP-2, UCP-3) and peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation proteins. Two groups of male Fisher 344 rats 3-4 week old (n=5 per group) were pair fed for 6 weeks a diet containing 40% of its energy fat derived from either fish oil or corn oil. Epididymal fat pads from rats fed the fish oil diet weighed 25% (P < 0.05) less than those found in rats fed corn oil. The decrease in fat deposition associated with fish oil ingestion was accompanied by a significant increase in the abundance of skeletal muscle UCP-3 mRNA. The level of UCP-2 mRNA skeletal muscle was unaffected by the type of dietary oil, but the abundance of UCP-2 mRNA in the liver and heart were significantly lower (P < 0.05) in rats fed fish oil than in rats fed corn oil. In addition to inducing UCP-3 expression, dietary fish oil induced peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase gene expression 2-3 fold in liver, skeletal muscle and heart. These data support the hypothesis that dietary fish oil reduces fat deposition by increasing the expression of mitochondrial uncoupling proteins and increasing fatty acid oxidation by the less efficient peroxisomal pathway.  相似文献

The aim of this work was to compare the effects of n-3 and n-6 fatty acids on plasma lipid level and hepato-biliary cholesterol metabolism by studying rats fed semi-synthetic diets enriched with either 10% salmon oil, 10% corn oil, or a blend of 6% corn oil and 4% salmon oil. After 4 weeks of feeding, a drop in plasma lipid level was noted in the salmon oil group in comparison to the control group, whereas no change was observed in the corn oil group. An increase in production of cholesterol ester by the liver was recorded in the salmon oil group with a marked enhancement in acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT: EC 2.3.1.26) activity and hepatic cholesterol concentration. Corn oil did not affect either ACAT activity or hepatic cholesterol storage. All bile parameters (flow, bile salts, phospholipids, cholesterol) increased in the salmon oil group, but the molar ratio of cholesterol participation in the bile secretion decreased. These changes in bile composition, as well as in hepatic metabolism of cholesterol, may help to explain the hypolipidemia following the intake of fish oil.  相似文献

Key enzymes involved in oxidation and esterification of long-chain fatty acids were investigated in male rats fed different types and amounts of oil in their diet. A diet with 20% (w/w) fish oil, partially hydrogenated fish oil (PHFO) and partially hydrogenated soybean oil (PHSO) was shown to stimulate the mitochondrial and microsomal palmitoyl-CoA synthetase activity (EC 6.2.1.3) compared to soybean oil-fed animals after 1 week of feeding. Rapeseed oil had no effect. Partially hydrogenated oils in the diet resulted in significantly higher levels of mitochondrial glycerophosphate acyltransferase compared to unhydrogenated oils in the diet. Rats fed 20% (w/w) rapeseed oil had a decreased activity of this mitochondrial enzyme, whereas the microsomal glycerophosphate acyltransferase activity was stimulated to a comparable extent with 20% (w/w) rapeseed oil, fish oil or PHFO in the diet. Increasing the amount of PHFO (from 5 to 25% (w/w)) in the diet for 3 days led to increased mitochondrial and microsomal palmitoyl-CoA synthetase and microsomal glycerophosphate acyltransferase activities with 5% of this oil in the diet. The mitochondrial glycerophosphate acyltransferase was only marginally affected by increasing the oil dose. Administration of 20% (w/w) PHFO increased rapidly the mitochondrial and microsomal palmitoyl-CoA synthetase, carnitine palmitoyltransferase and microsomal glycerophosphate acyltransferase activities almost to their maximum value within 36 h. In contrast, the glycerophosphate acyltransferase and palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase (EC 3.1.2.2) activities of the mitochondrial fraction and the peroxisomal beta-oxidation reached their maximum activities after administration of the dietary oil for 6.5 days. This sequence of enzyme changes (a) is in accordance with the proposal that an increased cellular level of long-chain acyl-CoA species act as metabolic messages for induction of peroxisomal beta-oxidation and palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase, i.e., these enzymes are regulated by a substrate-induced mechanism, and (b) indicates that, with PHFO, a greater part of the activated fatty acids are directed from triacylglycerol esterification and hydrolysis towards oxidation in the mitochondria. It is also conceivable that the mitochondrial beta-oxidation is proceeding before the enhancement of peroxisomal beta-oxidation.  相似文献

Feeding adult rats a 17% corn-oil diet for 8 weeks did not change brain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) compared to rats fed 2.2% corn oil (with 2.2% lard added). When the corn-oil diet was supplemented with 14.5% cod liver oil or 12.5% salmon oil, the fatty acid composition of brain PUFA was significantly altered, even if alpha-tocopherol was added to the salmon-oil diet. Comparing salmon-oil- and cod-liver-oil-fed animals with corn-oil-fed animals, arachidonic acid 22:4(n-6) and 22:5(n-6) were reduced, and 20:5(n-3), 22:5(n-3) and 22:6(n-3) were increased. Liver fatty acids were also significantly altered. Thus, the brain is not protected against a large excess of very-long-chain n-3 PUFA, which increase n-3/n-6 ratio and could lead to abnormal function, and which might be difficult to reverse.  相似文献

Atlantic salmon Salmo salar were fed diets containing 100% fish oil (FO; capelin oil) or 100% vegetable oil (VO) from start of feeding until the fish reached the size of 2·5 kg. Samples were taken during the period of the parr-smolt transformation (October 2002 to February 2003). The VO diet consisted of a blend of 55% rapeseed oil, 30% palm oil and 15% linseed oil to maintain the sum of saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids between the two diets, although with differences in the individual chain length of fatty acids. Na+/K+-ATPase activity in the gills, total β-oxidation capacity in muscles and liver and total lipid, glycogen and dry matter content in the muscles were measured during the parr-smolt transformation and after seawater transfer. Na+/K+-ATPase activity in gills increased prior to seawater transfer, showing an adaptation for seawater survival. Major changes in the lipid and glycogen content in the fillet and in β-oxidation capacity were found in the tissues measured. β-oxidation capacity increased significantly in liver and decreased in red muscle, prior to seawater transfer, giving liver an important role in energy production during this period. Results also indicated that feeding Atlantic salmon a diet where 100% of FO was replaced with VO did not have any negative effects on lipid metabolism during parr-smolt transformation.  相似文献

Aspergillus nidulans can use a variety of fatty acids as sole carbon and energy sources via its peroxisomal and mitochondrial β-oxidation pathways. Prior to channelling the fatty acids into β-oxidation, they need to be activated to their acyl-CoA derivates. Analysis of the genome sequence identified a number of possible fatty acyl-CoA synthetases (FatA, FatB, FatC, FatD, FaaA and FaaB). FaaB was found to be the major long-chain synthetase for fatty acid degradation. FaaB was shown to localise to the peroxisomes, and the corresponding gene was induced in the presence of short and long chain fatty acids. Deletion of the faaB gene leads to a reduced/abolished growth on a variety of fatty acids. However, at least one additional fatty acyl-CoA synthetase with a preference for short chain fatty acids and a potential mitochondrial candidate (AN4659.3) has been identified via genome analysis.  相似文献

Hepatic metabolism of long-chain fatty acids were studied in young male rats fed a semisynthetic diet containing 20% (w/w) partially hydrogenated fish oil (PHFO)2, with or without 2% (w/w) linoleic acid. The enzymic activities involved in the formation and breakdown of long-chain acyl-CoA were both increased in the animals fed the semisynthetic diet, compared to pellet-fed control animals. Thus, the specific palmitoyl-CoA synthetase activity increased slightly in both the mitochondrial (1.4-fold) and the microsomal (1.6-fold) fractions. In the peroxisome-enriched fraction the activity was increased (about 2.6-fold) only on addition of linoleic acid to the diet. The data are consistent with an increased catabolism of long-chain fatty acids by a peroxisomal and a mitochondrial pathway. Thus, the total carnitine palmitoyltransferase activity increased 2-fold in the mitochondrial fraction, and was partly prevented by added linoleic acid. Peroxisomal beta-oxidation activity was also increased (about 7-fold) in livers of PHFO-fed rats, but did not change when linoleic acid was added. The PHFO-fed rats also revealed elevated capacity for hydrolysis of palmitoyl-CoA in both the mitochondrial (2.4-fold) and the cytosolic (2.0-fold) fractions and the latter was almost completely and selectively prevented by added linoleic acid. The s values of mitochondria and peroxisomes varied with the dietary regime, and some of the observed changes in the specific activities of the fatty acid metabolizing enzymes with multiple subcellular localization can be explained as an effect of changes in the s values of the organelles. Thus, the s value of mitochondria increased 1.8-fold as a result of PHFO feeding, but was fully prevented by linoleic acid in the diet. On the other hand, the s values of peroxisomes decreased by about 50% on feeding a PHFO diet, and by about 25% with added linoleic acid.  相似文献

The effect of fish oil-derived omega-3 (omega-3) fatty acids on anaphylaxis, Arthus and delayed type hypersensitivity reactions in mice has been investigated. Mice on a normal chow diet were fed eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid at a dose of 500 and 333 mg/kg/day, respectively, by a gastric tube over a period of 61 days. Control groups were given water, safflower oil or oleic acid. Anaphylactic and Arthus type reactions were induced in the mouse footpad using bovine serum albumin as an antigen. Carrageenin was utilized to produce a delayed type hypersensitivity reaction. The animals fed omega-3 fatty acids induced a more anaphylactic foodpad reaction. There was no significant effect of the diet on Arthus and delayed type hypersensitivity responses. There was no effect of the fish oil-supplemented diet on production of antibodies to bovine serum albumin. Synthesis of prostaglandin E2 by peritoneal macrophages was significantly inhibited in the animals fed omega-3 fatty acid-enriched fish oil, while leukotriene B4 production was not affected. These results suggest that a diet enriched in omega-3 fatty acids modulates production of arachidonic acid metabolites and this may influence anaphylaxis, but not Arthus and cellular mediated hypersensitivity responses.  相似文献

The activities of hepatic fatty acid oxidation enzymes in rats fed linseed and perilla oils rich in alpha-linolenic acid (alpha-18:3) were compared with those in the animals fed safflower oil rich in linoleic acid (18:2) and saturated fats (coconut or palm oil). Mitochondrial and peroxisomal palmitoyl-CoA (16:0-CoA) oxidation rates in the liver homogenates were significantly higher in rats fed linseed and perilla oils than in those fed saturated fats and safflower oil. The fatty oxidation rates increased as dietary levels of alpha-18:3 increased. Dietary alpha-18:3 also increased the activity of fatty acid oxidation enzymes except for 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase. Unexpectedly, dietary alpha-18:3 caused great reduction in the activity of 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase measured with short- and medium-chain substrates but not with long-chain substrate. Dietary alpha-18:3 significantly increased the mRNA levels of hepatic fatty acid oxidation enzymes including carnitine palmitoyltransferase I and II, mitochondrial trifunctional protein, acyl-CoA oxidase, peroxisomal bifunctional protein, mitochondrial and peroxisomal 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolases, 2, 4-dienoyl-CoA reductase and delta3, delta2-enoyl-CoA isomerase. Fish oil rich in very long-chain n-3 fatty acids caused similar changes in hepatic fatty acid oxidation. Regarding the substrate specificity of beta-oxidation pathway, mitochondrial and peroxisomal beta-oxidation rate of alpha-18:3-CoA, relative to 16:0- and 18:2-CoAs, was higher irrespective of the substrate/albumin ratios in the assay mixture or dietary fat sources. The substrate specificity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I appeared to be responsible for the differential mitochondrial oxidation rates of these acyl-CoA substrates. Dietary fats rich in alpha-18:3-CoA relative to safflower oil did not affect the hepatic activity of fatty acid synthase and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase. It was suggested that both substrate specificities and alterations in the activities of the enzymes in beta-oxidation pathway play a significant role in the regulation of the serum lipid concentrations in rats fed alpha-18:3.  相似文献

In this study, we examined the immune response and proteinuria caused by dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids in normal NZW/N and autoimmune NZB/NZW mice. Mice were maintained more than one year on five dietary groups: normal (5% corn oil), calorie-restricted, high fat (20% corn oil), high fat (20% fish oil), and Purina laboratory rodent chow. Normal mice fed with the fish oil diet had a more reduced anti-sheep red blood cells (SRBC) plaque-forming cell (PFC) response and less interleukin-2 (IL-2) enhancement of PFC than did the group with the restricted diet and the young control group. The corn oil (5 and 20%) diet animals also showed reduced PFC response and IL-2 utilization. NZB/NZW mice fed with the fish oil diet showed similar reduced PFC response but had a significantly lower response to IL-2 than did those on the corn oil diets and the restricted diet. The IL-2 production by macrophages from NZW/N mice was reduced in both the fish oil and corn oil diet groups. However, mice fed with the fish oil diet had less proteinuria and good survival rates, similar to the group with the restricted diet. These results suggest that the beneficial effect of the fish oil diet in these animals may be attributed in part to the immunosuppression mechanism.  相似文献

We investigated the effects of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) on non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced changes in microcirculation and eicosanoid production in the gastrointestinal mucosa. We measured gastric mucosal blood flow using laser Doppler flowmetry, assessed the fatty acid composition in the mucosal phospholipids, and quantified the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), leukotriene B4, and leukotriene C4 (LTB4 and C4) from the mucosa with the stimulation of calcium ionophore 20 min after an injection of indomethacin or vehicle in rats fed a diet containing different compositions of alpha-linolenic acid. Four weeks after the initiation of the test diet the arachidonic acid level in gastric mucosal phospholipids was significantly lower in the perilla group than in the other three groups. Conversely, alpha-linolenic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) were significantly higher in the perilla group than in the other three groups. The percent of gastric mucosal blood flow in the three groups administered indomethacin were significantly lower than that in the control group injected with vehicle alone. The percent of gastric mucosal blood flow in the perilla group was significantly higher than that in the corn group. LTB4 and LTC4 production from the gastric mucosa in the soybean and corn groups were significantly higher than those in the control group, and the LTC4 production in the perilla group was significantly lower than that in the corn group. There were no significant differences in PGE2 production among the four groups. Our results suggest that alpha-linolenic acid affectively suppressed the indomethacin-induced decreases in gastric mucosal blood flow by increasing EPA and decreasing the levels of arachidonic acid and LTC4 in the gastric mucosa.  相似文献

The effects of dietary iols on gastric, duodenal mucosa and liver were investigated ina rat model. Unsaturated fatty acid profles and in vitro prostaglandin (PG) synthesis (PGE2, PGF, 6-oxo-PGF and thromboxane B2). were measured after 14 days of dietary oil supplements.There were no significant differences in prostanoid synthesis between rats fed coconut oil (high saturated fat content) and standard diet. After fish oil supplement, tissue eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid levels were higher, arachidonic acid levels were lower, and prostanoid synthesis was reduced in both stomach and duodenum. After corn oil and evening primrose oil, linoleic acid levels were variaby increased, bt there were no significant differences in arachidonic acid or prostanoid synthesis. Dihomogamma-linolenic acid levels were slightly increased after evening primrose oil.Dietary incorporation of fatty acids into gastroduodenal tissue is not uniform. When incorporated, fatty acids can modify prostaglandin synthesis.  相似文献

The interaction of sesamin, one of the most abundant lignans in sesame seed, and types of dietary fats affecting hepatic fatty acid oxidation was examined in rats. Rats were fed purified experimental diets supplemented with 0% or 0.2% sesamin (1:1 mixture of sesamin and episesamin), and containing 8% of either palm, safflower or fish oil for 15 days. Among the groups fed sesamin-free diets, the activity of various fatty acid oxidation enzymes was higher in rats fed fish oil than in those fed palm and safflower oils. Dietary sesamin increased enzyme activities in all groups of rats given different fats. The extent of the increase depended on dietary fat type, and a diet containing sesamin and fish oil in combination appeared to increase many of these parameters synergistically. In particular, the peroxisomal palmitoyl-CoA oxidation rate and acyl-CoA oxidase activity levels were much higher in rats fed sesamin and fish oil in combination than in animals fed sesamin and palm or safflower oil in combination. Analyses of mRNA levels revealed that a diet containing sesamin and fish oil increased the gene expression of various peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation enzymes and PEX11alpha, a peroxisomal membrane protein, in a synergistic manner while it increased the gene expression of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation enzymes and microsomal cytochrome P-450 IV A1 in an additive manner. It was concluded that a diet containing sesamin and fish oil in combination synergistically increased hepatic fatty acid oxidation primarily through up-regulation of the gene expression of peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation enzymes.  相似文献

To investigate the mechanism for initiation of peroxisomal beta-oxidation by high-fat diets the time-courses of peroxisomal beta-oxidation and microsomal omega-oxidation stimulated by 20% (w/w) partially hydrogenated fish oil were studied. The relative stimulation of these two activities developed in a very similar way. We also observed an elevated level of long-chain acyl-CoA with partially hydrogenated fish oil, but not of free fatty acids. There was, however, a significant shift in the composition of free fatty acids to a higher amount of monoenes and lower amounts of 18:2 and 20:4 fatty acids. In peroxisomes purified by Nycodenz gradient centrifugation there was no lauric acid hydroxylation. This study indicates that with partially hydrogenated fish oil we obtain a parallel stimulation of reactions in two different cellular compartments. Dicarboxylic fatty acids, which are products of the omega-oxidation, had only a slight stimulatory effect on peroxisomal beta-oxidation. Therefore, the primary stimulatory agent of peroxisomal beta-oxidation and microsomal omega-oxidation is still unknown. It was speculated that this agent may activate a gene-locus responsible for both reactions.  相似文献

Acyl-CoA oxidase, the first enzyme of the peroxisomal β-oxidation, was proved to be rate-limiting for this process in homogenates of rat liver, kidney, adrenal gland, heart and skeletal muscle. Acyl-CoA oxidase activity, based on H2O2-dependent leuko-dichlorofluorescein oxidation in tissue extract, was compared with radiochemically assayed peroxisomal β-oxidation rates. Dichlorofluorescein production was a valid measure of peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation only in liver and kidney, but not in adrenal gland, heart or skeletal muscle. Production of 14C-labeled acid-soluble products from 1-14C-labeled fatty acids in the presence of antimycin-rotenone appears to be a more accurate and sensitive estimate of peroxisomal β-oxidation than the acyl-CoA oxidase activity on base of H2O2 production. Chain-length specificity of acyl-CoA oxidase changed with the acyl-CoA concentrations used. Below 80 μM, palmitoyl-CoA showed the highest activity of the measured substrates in rat liver extract. No indications were obtained for the presence in rat liver of more forms of acyl-CoA oxidase with different chain-length specificity.  相似文献

The predominant polyunsaturated fatty acids of the n-6 family found in corn oil (CO) are crucial for normal mammary duct formation when fed to animals. However, as shown here, not all polyunsaturated fatty acids are equally effective in stimulating mammary gland development. The n-3 fatty acids in a 10% menhaden oil (MO) diet fed to mice effectively reduced both the diameter and the length of the growing mammary ducts. Previously, we demonstrated a similar reduction in duct growth by feeding a 10% fat diet high in those saturated fats found in hydrogenated cotton seed oil. The inhibited rate of duct maturation caused by hydrogenated cotton seed oil was reversed when the mice were allowed to mature on a diet containing n-6 fatty acids prior to feeding the saturated fat diet. The addition of 1% CO to a 9% hydrogenated cotton seed oil diet fed to immature mice was also sufficient to restore duct growth. Mice fed menhaden oil diets, on the other hand, continued to show impaired ductal growth well into adulthood. Examination of the ovaries from MO-fed mice as compared with CO-fed mice revealed significantly fewer corpora lutea. When exogenous progesterone was given to MO-fed mice, ductal growth was partially restored, but not to the extent seen in mice fed corn oil diets. Investigation of the fatty acid contents of livers of these mice revealed reduced amounts of arachidonate (20:4) in MO-fed mice when compared with CO-fed animals. The addition of 1% CO to the 9% MO diets did not alter the arachidonate content, indicating a block in the conversion of linoleate (18:2) to 20:4 by the n-3 fatty acids. Hence, dietary n-6 fatty acids are essential for normal mammary ductal development when fed prior to maturation. Although saturated rats are ineffective, n-3 fatty acids can partially substitute for the required n-6 fatty acids in both ductal and ovarian development.  相似文献

Male Wistar rats were given a diet containing 2% (w/w) di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (DEHP), a peroxisomal proliferator, for 4 weeks. The activities of enzymes of peroxisomal β-oxidation and of catalase were markedly increased by the DEHP administration. The time required to reach halfway to the maximal induction for enzymes of peroxisomal β-oxidation was 5–7 days, whereas that for catalase was 3 days. A separate DEHP group was placed on the control diet after 14 days of feeding with the DEHP diet. On the withdrawal of DEHP, activities of enzymes of the β-oxidation system and of catalase decreased to the control levels with a half-life of 2–3 days. Responses of some mitochondrial enzymes involved in fatty acid oxidation are also described.  相似文献

The effect of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on hepatic peroxisomal oxidation was investigated with respect to the postprandial triacylglycerol levels. Male Sprague--Dawley rats were fed semipurified diets containing either 1% (w/w) corn oil, or 10% each of beef tallow, corn oil, perilla oil, and fish oil for 4 weeks and 4 days. Hepatic and plasma triacylglycerol levels were reduced in rats fed fish and perilla oil diets compared with corn oil and beef tallow diets. The peroxisomal beta-oxidation, catalase activity, and acyl-CoA oxidase (AOX) activity were markedly increased by fish oil feeding. To a lesser extent, perilla oil elevated AOX activity in a 4-day feeding although the effect gradually decreased in a 4-week feeding. Similarly, the mRNA levels were increased in rats fed fish and perilla oils. AOX activity was negatively correlated with postprandial triacylglycerol levels. In addition, the stimulation of AOX was highly associated with the content of long chain n-3 PUFA such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in hepatic microsome. These effects were evident within 4 days of initiating feeding. Therefore, alpha-linolenic perilla oil exerts a similar effect to fish oil in stimulating hepatic activity and gene expression of AOX by enriching long chain n-3 PUFA in hepatic membrane fraction, which can partly account for the reduction of postprandial triglyceridemia.  相似文献

Seed storage oil catabolism: a story of give and take   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The transition from seed to seedling is an important step in the life cycle of plants, which is fuelled primarily by the breakdown of triacylglycerol (TAG) in 'oilseed' species. TAG is stored within cytosolic oil bodies, while the pathway for fatty acid β-oxidation resides in the peroxisome. Although the enzymology of fatty acid β-oxidation has been relatively well characterised, the processes by which fatty acids are liberated from oil bodies and enter the peroxisome are less well understood and, together with metabolite, cofactor and co-substrate transporters, represent key targets for future research in order to understand co-ordination of peroxisomal metabolism with that of other subcellular compartments.  相似文献
