The mechanism for the reduced hepatic production of triacylglycerol in the presence of eicosapentaenoic acid was explored in short-term experiments using cultured parenchymal cells and microsomes from rat liver. Oleic, palmitic, stearic, and linoleic acids were the most potent stimulators of triacyl[3H]glycerol synthesis and secretion by hepatocytes, whereas erucic, alpha-linolenic, gamma-linolenic, arachidonic, docosahexaenoic, and eicosapentaenoic acids (in decreasing order) were less stimulatory. There was a linear correlation (r = 0.85, P less than 0.01) between synthesis and secretion of triacyl[3H]glycerol for the fatty acids examined. The extreme and opposite effects of eicosapentaenoic and oleic acids on triacylglycerol metabolism were studied in more detail. With increasing number of free fatty acid molecules bound per molecule of albumin, the rate of synthesis and secretion of triacyl[3H]glycerol increased, most markedly for oleic acid. Cellular uptake of the two fatty acids was similar, but more free eicosapentaenoic acid accumulated intracellularly. Eicosapentaenoic acid caused higher incorporation of [3H]water into phospholipid and lower incorporation into triacylglycerol and cholesteryl ester as compared to oleic acid. No difference was observed between the fatty acids on incorporation into cellular free fatty acids, monoacylglycerol and diacylglycerol. The amount of some 16- and 18-carbon fatty acids in triacylglycerol was significantly higher in the presence of oleic acid compared with eicosapentaenoic acid. Rat liver microsomes in the presence of added 1,2-dioleoyl-glycerol incorporated eicosapentaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoyl-CoA into triacylglycerol to a lesser extent than oleic acid and its CoA derivative. Decreased formation of triacylglycerol was also observed when eicosapentaenoyl-CoA was given together with oleoyl-CoA, whereas palmitoyl-CoA, stearoyl-CoA, linoleoyl-CoA, linolenoyl-CoA, and arachi-donoyl-CoA had no inhibitory effect. In conclusion, inhibition of acyl-CoA:1,2-diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.20) by eicosapentaenoic acid may be important for reduced synthesis and secretion of triacylglycerol from the liver.  相似文献

The human intestinal cell line, CaCo-2, was used to study the effect of the n-3 fatty acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, on triacylglycerol secretion. In cells incubated with 250 microM eicosapentaenoic acid, the incorporation of [3H]glycerol into triacylglycerols secreted into the medium was decreased by 58% compared to cells incubated with 250 microM oleic acid. The incorporation of [3H]glycerol into cellular triacylglycerols was decreased 32% in cells incubated with eicosapentaenoic acid. In cells preincubated with [3H]glycerol to label existing triacylglycerols, the rates of secretion of preformed triacylglycerols were similar in response to the addition of either fatty acid. Initial uptake rates of the n-3 fatty acid were higher than for oleic acid. Both eicosapentaenoic acid and oleic acid were minimally oxidized to CO2. Oleic acid was predominantly incorporated into cellular triacylglycerols (62% vs. 47%), whereas more eicosapentaenoic acid was incorporated into cellular phospholipids (46% vs. 30%). Phospholipids of microsomes prepared from cells incubated with eicosapentaenoic acid were enriched in this fatty acid. The rate of synthesis of triacylglycerol and diacylglycerol acyltransferase activities were significantly less in microsomes prepared from cells incubated with eicosapentaenoic acid. Triacylglycerol mass secreted by CaCo-2 cells incubated with either fatty acid was similar. In CaCo-2 cells, eicosapentaenoic acid decreases the synthesis and secretion of newly synthesized triacylglycerol without decreasing the secretion of triacylglycerol mass. Modification of microsomal membrane phospholipid fatty acid composition is associated with a decrease in microsomal triacylglycerol synthesis and diacylglycerol acyltransferase activities.  相似文献

Because the ability of cells to replace oxidized fatty acids in membrane phospholipids via deacylation and reacylation in situ may be an important determinant of the ability of cells to tolerate oxidative stress, incorporation of exogenous fatty acid into phospholipid by human erythrocytes has been examined following exposure of the cells to t-butyl hydroperoxide. Exposure of human erythrocytes to t-butyl hydroperoxide (0.5-1.0 mM) results in oxidation of glutathione, formation of malonyldialdehyde, and oxidation of hemoglobin to methemoglobin. Under these conditions, incorporation of exogenous [9,10-3H]oleic acid into phosphatidylethanolamine is enhanced while incorporation of [9,10-3H]oleic acid into phosphatidylcholine is decreased. These effects of t-butyl hydroperoxide on [9,10-3H]oleic acid incorporation are not affected by dissipating transmembrane gradients for calcium and potassium. When malonyldialdehyde production is inhibited by addition of ascorbic acid, t-butyl hydroperoxide still decreases [9,10-3H]oleic acid incorporation into phosphatidylcholine but no stimulation of [9,10-3H]oleic acid incorporation into phosphatidylethanolamine occurs. In cells pre-treated with NaNO2 to convert hemoglobin to methemoglobin, t-butyl hydroperoxide reduces [9,10-3H]oleic acid incorporation into phosphatidylcholine by erythrocytes but does not stimulate [9,10-3H]oleic acid incorporation into phosphatidylethanolamine. Under these conditions oxidation of erythrocyte glutathione and formation of malonyldialdehyde still occur. These results indicate that membrane phospholipid fatty acid turnover is altered under conditions where peroxidation of membrane phospholipid fatty acids occurs and suggest that the oxidation state of hemoglobin influences this response.  相似文献

The deacylation and reacylation process of phospholipids is the major pathway of turnover and repair in erythrocyte membranes. In this paper, we have investigated the role of carnitine palmitoyltransferase in erythrocyte membrane phospholipid fatty acid turnover. The role of acyl-L-carnitine as a reservoir of activated acyl groups, the buffer function of carnitine, and the importance of the acyl-CoA/free CoA ratio in the reacylation process of erythrocyte membrane phospholipids have also been addressed. In intact erythrocytes, the incorporation of [1-14C]palmitic acid into acyl-L-carnitine, phosphatidylcholine, and phosphatidylethanolamine was linear with time for at least 3 h. The greatest proportion of the radioactivity was found in acyl-L-carnitine. Competition experiments using [1-14C]palmitic and [9,10-3H]oleic acid demonstrated that [9,10-3H]oleic acid was incorporated preferentially into the phospholipids and less into acyl-L-carnitine. When an erythrocyte suspension was incubated with [1-14C]palmitoyl-L-carnitine, radiolabeled palmitate was recovered in the phospholipid fraction, and the carnitine palmitoyltransferase inhibitor, 2-tetradecylglycidic acid, completely abolished the incorporation. ATP depletion decreased incorporation of [1-14C]palmitic and/or [9,10-3H]oleic acid into acyl-L-carnitine, but the incorporation into phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine was unaffected. In contrast, ATP depletion enhanced the incorporation into phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine of the radiolabeled fatty acid from [1-14C]palmitoyl-L-carnitine. These data are suggestive of the existence of an acyl-L-carnitine pool, in equilibrium with the acyl-CoA pool, which serves as a reservoir of activated acyl groups. The carnitine palmitoyltransferase inhibition by 2-tetradecylglycidic acid or palmitoyl-D-carnitine caused a significant reduction of radiolabeled fatty acid incorporation into membrane phospholipids, only when intact erythrocytes were incubated with [9,10-3H]oleic acid. These latter data may be explained by the differences in rates and substrates specificities between acyl-CoA synthetase and the reacylating enzymes for palmitate and oleate, which support the importance of carnitine palmitoyltransferase in modulating the optimal acyl-CoA/free CoA ratio for the physiological expression of the membrane phospholipids fatty acid turnover.  相似文献

We determined the effect of the two major fish oil fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), on VLDL assembly and secretion by cultured rat hepatocytes. The incorporation of [3H]glycerol into total triglyceride (cell plus media) was stimulated eight-fold when hepatocytes were incubated for 2 h with 1 mM EPA, DHA, or oleic acid (OA), suggesting that fish oil fatty acids stimulate hepatic triglyceride synthesis to an extent similar to OA. In contrast, mass quantitation of secreted triglyceride showed impaired triglyceride secretion with EPA and DHA compared to OA. During a 42-h time course, cells stimulated with EPA and DHA progressively accumulated triglyceride compared to cells stimulated with OA. To determine whether fish oil fatty acids impair very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) secretion, cells were labeled with [35S]methionine and the secretion of de novo synthesized apoB was measured. Compared to OA, EPA and DHA significantly impaired the secretion of both molecular weight forms of apoB. The cellular content of apoB was not altered by any of the fatty acids. The concordant decrease in the secretion of both triglyceride and apoB suggests that fish oil fatty acids impair VLDL assembly and/or secretion.  相似文献

Addition of oleic acid to Krebs-II cells stimulated by 9-fold [3H]choline incorporation into choline glycerophospholipids without affecting the selective incorporation of the precursor into diacyl subclass (90% of total [3H]choline glycerophospholipids). The total activity of cytidylyltransferase (E.C. 2.7.7.15), the regulatory enzyme of choline glycerophospholipid synthesis, was increased in the particulate fraction at the expense of cytosol. Free [3H]oleic acid was also associated with the particulate fraction. Subcellular fractionation of membranes on Percoll gradient, indicated that the endoplasmic reticulum, which contained 90% of total cell free oleic acid, was the unique target for the translocation of cytidylyltransferase. [3H]oleic acid was incorporated almost exclusively into phosphatidylcholine and corresponded to a synthesis of 9 nmol/h per 10(6) cells. Based on [3H]choline incorporation a net synthesis of 22 nmol/h per 10(6) cells was determined. However, oleic acid treatment did not change the total amount of phosphatidylcholine (45 nmol/10(6) cells) and other phospholipids; also no modification in the subcellular distribution of phospholipids was observed. It is concluded that the stimulation of the de novo synthesis of phosphatidylcholine which involves translocation of cytidylyltransferase onto the endoplasmic reticulum, is accompanied by a renewal of their polar head group. Also exogenous oleic acid induces an enhanced fatty acid turnover, highly specific for phosphatidylcholine. Therefore, Krebs-II cells exhibited a high degree of regulation of their phosphatidylcholine content, suggesting a parallel stimulation of both synthesis and degradation.  相似文献

The incorporation of [14C]oleic and [14C]linoleic acid into phospholipids and neutral lipids was compared in two recently immortalized airway epithelial cell lines. In addition, the effects of adrenergic stimulation on phospholipid turnover was examined. Both cell lines readily incorporated the fatty acids into all phospholipid and neutral lipid fractions. Isoproterenol (1 microM) induced Ca2+ transients in both cell lines, indicating a functional beta-adrenergic response. Epinephrine (10 microM; 15 min) stimulation of cells prelabeled with [14C]linoleic acid increased the percentage of label in phosphatidylcholine in one cell line. Lipid metabolism can now be extensively studied in human airway epithelia.  相似文献

In cultured pig coronary smooth muscle cells phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) stimulated the conversion of [4-14C]cholesterol into cholesteryl esters and the incorporation of [2-3H]glycerol into triglycerides 6.4- and 4.5-fold, respectively. The maximal effects occurred after 3 h of treatment and there was a return to basal values after 72 h. In the presence of 400 microM oleic acid, PMA stimulated the conversion of [4-14C]cholesterol into cholesteryl esters and that of [2-3H]glycerol into triglycerides 5.3- and 2.3-fold, respectively. The stimulatory effects were more sustained (still significant after 72 h) and their maxima were delayed (peaks after 24 h). PMA was also found to increase 2-fold the amount of triglyceride that accumulated in the cells in the presence of oleic acid after 24 h. In macrophages IC-21, the effects of PMA were observed only in the presence of oleic acid. They consisted of a 1.9-fold stimulation in the conversion of [4-14C]cholesterol into cholesteryl esters after 72 h and of a 1.7-fold stimulation in the incorporation of [2-3H]glycerol into triglycerides after 24 h. PMA also increased the amount of triglyceride that accumulated in the cells 1.9-fold after 72 h. It is concluded that PMA, and possibly growth factors, may promote lipid storage in smooth muscle cells and that fatty acids favor long lasting effects of PMA in smooth muscle cells and are necessary for any effect of PMA in macrophages.  相似文献

Membrane fatty acid composition of CaCo-2 cells was modified by incubating the cells for 8 days in medium containing 100 microM eicosapentaenoic acid or palmitic acid. The effect of membrane fatty acid changes on cholesterol metabolism was then studied. Cells incubated with eicosapentaenoic acid had significant changes in membrane fatty acid composition with an accumulation of 20:5 and 22:5 and a reduction in monoenoic fatty acids compared to cells grown in palmitic acid. Intracellular cholesteryl esters could not be detected in CaCo-2 cells grown in the presence of the n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid. In contrast, cells incubated with the saturated fatty acid contained 2 micrograms/mg protein of cholesteryl esters. Cells grown in eicosapentaenoic acid, however, accumulated significantly more triglycerides compared to cells modified with palmitic acid. The rate of oleic acid incorporation into triglycerides was significantly increased in cells incubated with eicosapentaenoic acid. CaCo-2 cells modified by eicosapentaenoic acid had lower rates of HMG-CoA reductase and ACAT activities compared to cells modified with palmitic acid. The incorporation of the two fatty acids into cellular lipids also differed. Palmitic acid was predominantly incorporated into cellular triglycerides, whereas eicosapentaenoic acid was preferentially incorporated into phospholipids with 60% of it in the phosphatidylethanolamine fraction. The data indicate that membrane fatty acid composition is significantly altered by growing CaCo-2 cells in eicosapentaenoic acid. These modifications in membrane fatty acid saturation are accompanied by a decrease in the rates of cholesterol synthesis and cholesterol esterification.  相似文献

In BGM cells chronically infected with measles virus, although the composition of the phospholipids is unaltered, the fatty acid composition is modified. Uninfected, lytic and persistently infected cells were labelled with [3H]arachidonic acid and [14C]stearic acid and their metabolic fate analysed. No difference in the total incorporation was observed in the different systems. However, the [14C]stearic acid and [3H]arachidonic acid were incorporated up to 2-fold and 13-fold respectively greater into the neutral lipid of persistently infected compared with that of uninfected cells. Both radioactive fatty acids were specifically accumulated in the triacylglycerol and non-esterified fatty acids fractions. Lytically infected cells were similar to uninfected cells. Although there was no significant difference in the incorporation of radioactivity into the total phospholipid in either system, there was a large decrease in [3H]arachidonic acid incorporated into phosphatidylethanolamine and to a lesser extent phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol in persistently infected cells. [14C]Stearic acid incorporation was also reduced in phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine fractions of persistently infected cells.  相似文献

Pretreatment of the D-deficient chick with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 increases de novo synthesis of phosphatidylcholine by a stimulation of CDP-choline: sn-1,2-diacylglycerol choline-phosphotransferase reaction. The time course of change in the incorporation of [3H]choline and [14C]ethanolamine into the brush border lipid fraction after 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 treatment correlates closely with the time course of change in calcium uptake into the brush border membrane vesicles. Prior treatment with cycloheximide does not block this increase in phosphatidylcholine synthesis. In addition, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 administration increases the incorporation of [3H]arachidonic acid into the phosphatidylcholine fraction of the brush border to a great extent but does not increase the incorporation of [3H]palmitic acid into the phosphatidylcholine fraction. The incorporation of these 3H labeled fatty acids into diacylglycerol is not changed by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. These data indicate that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 enhances the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine independent of new protein synthesis, and also increases the incorporation of unsaturated fatty acids into phosphatidylcholine. From these results we suggest that changes in phospholipid metabolism in the enterocyte are the mechanisms by which 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 acts to enhance calcium entry across the brush border membrane.  相似文献

Observations of impaired chondrocyte metabolism in essential fatty acid (EFA) deficiency as well as EFA protection against development of osteoarthrosis in inbred mice suggest the existence of a relationship between EFA, chondrocyte metabolism, and cartilage degeneration. To explore this relationship further, the fatty acid content of lipids in normal fetal bovine chondrocytes was manipulated by in vitro exposure to media supplemented with 100 microM arachidonic acid (20:4) or oleic acid (18:1). Chondrocytes rapidly and differentially incorporated both fatty acids into their lipid pools. The predominant acceptor was triacylglycerols. A 980% enrichment of arachidonic acid was associated with increased concentrations of fatty acids, increased 35SO4 and [3H]proline incorporation into matrix macromolecules (170% and 54-103%, respectively), and a 24-fold elevation in chondrocyte prostaglandin synthesis. No metabolic effects elicited observed in cells enriched by 377% with 18:1 oleic acid. The metabolic effects elicited by 20:4 arachidonic acid were abolished by pretreatment of cells with indomethacin, suggesting that the cellular responses to essential fatty acid loading may be associated with induced increases in prostaglandin synthesis. The data indicate that excessive in vitro accumulation of arachidonic acid is associated with an increase in synthetic activity that is causally related to increased prostaglandin synthesis and elevated levels of cellular fatty acids.  相似文献

Long chain acyl-CoA synthetase (ACSL) catalyzes the initial step in long chain fatty acid metabolism. Of the five mammalian ACSL isoforms cloned and characterized, ACSL5 is the only isoform found to be located, in part, on mitochondria and thus was hypothesized to be involved in fatty acid oxidation. To elucidate the specific roles of ACSL5 in fatty acid metabolism, we used adenoviral-mediated overexpression of ACSL5 (Ad-ACSL5) in rat hepatoma McArdle-RH7777 cells. Confocal microscopy revealed that Ad-ACSL5 colocalized to both mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum. When compared with cells infected with Ad-GFP, Ad-ACSL5-infected cells at 24 h after infection had 2-fold higher acyl-CoA synthetase activities and 30% higher rates of fatty acid uptake when incubated with 500 microM [1-(14)C]oleic acid. Metabolism of [1-(14)C]oleic acid to cellular triacylglycerol (TAG) increased 42% in Ad-ACSL5-infected cells, but when compared with control cells, metabolism to acid-soluble metabolites, phospholipids, and medium TAG did not differ substantially. The incorporation of [1-(14)C]oleate and [1,2,3-(3)H]glycerol into TAG was similar in Ad-ACSL5-infected cells, thus indicating that Ad-ACSL5 increased TAG synthesis through both de novo and reacylation pathways. However, [1-(14)C]acetic acid incorporation into cellular lipids showed that, when compared with control cells, Ad-ACSL5-infected cells did not increase the metabolism of fatty acids that were derived from de novo synthesis. These results suggest that uptake of fatty acids into cells is regulated by metabolism and that overexpressed ACSL5 partitions exogenously derived fatty acids toward TAG synthesis and storage.  相似文献

Monolayers of Caco-2 cells, a human enterocyte cell line, were incubated with [1-14C]15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15-HETE), a lipid mediator of inflammation, and [1-14C]arachidonic acid. Both fatty acids were taken up readily and metabolized by Caco-2 cells. [1-14C]Arachidonic acid was directly esterified in cellular phospholipids and, to a lesser extent, in triglycerides. When [1-14C]15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid was incubated with Caco-2 cells, about 10% was directly esterified into cellular lipids but most (55%) was beta-oxidized to ketone bodies, CO2, and acetate, with very little accumulation of shorter carbon chain products of partial beta-oxidation. The radiolabeled acetate generated from beta-oxidation of [1-14C]15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid was incorporated into the synthesis of new fatty acids, primarily [14C]palmitate, which in turn was esterified into cellular phospholipids, with lesser amounts in triglycerides. Caco-2 cells were also incubated with [5,6,8,9,11,12,14,15-3H]15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid; most of the radiolabel was recovered either in ketone bodies or in [3H]palmitate esterified in phospholipids and triglycerides, demonstrating that most of the [3H]15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid underwent several cycles of beta-oxidation. The binding of both 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid and arachidonic acid to hepatic fatty acid binding protein, the only fatty acid binding protein in Caco-2 cells, was measured. The Kd (6.0 microM) for 15-HETE was three-fold higher than that for arachidonate (2.1 microM).  相似文献

Modification of fatty acid composition of Hep-G2 cells was achieved by 7-9 days of supplementation of culture medium with palmitic, oleic or linoleic acid. Cholesterol release into serum-free culture medium during 24 h of incubation was significantly lower in cells supplemented with linoleic acid, when compared to those supplemented with palmitic, oleic or no additional fatty acid. In cells cultured in the presence of linoleic acid, less [3H]cholesterol was esterified to cholesteryl ester and the mass of cholesteryl ester was significantly lower than in cells cultured with palmitic acid or with no additional fatty acid. The reduction in [3H]cholesterol secretion and the impairment in cholesterol esterification in linoleic acid-treated cells was prevented by addition of butylated hydroxytoluene or probucol concurrently with the fatty acid. The antioxidants also increased esterification and [3H]cholesterol release in cells supplemented with the other fatty acids. It is suggested that cholesterol secretion and esterification are sensitive to peroxidation.  相似文献

The incorporation of hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs) into cellular lipids was studied in cultures of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. 5-[3H]HETE was incorporated into the phospholipids (8%) and neutral lipids (15.5%). The uptake was at half maximum after 15 min and reached a plateau after 1 h. The incorporation occurred mainly into phosphatidylcholine (6.3%) with minimal uptake into phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol (0.6%) or phosphatidylethanolamine (1.2%). There was no uptake of 12-[3H]HETE, 15-[3H]HETE or [3H]leukotriene B4 into phospholipids. Treatment of the phosphatidylcholine fraction with phospholipase A2 released 64% of the 5-[3H]HETE with 26% remaining in the lysophosphatidylcholine fraction. This indicates that the majority of the 5-HETE was in the sn-2 position. Unlabeled 5-HETE and arachidonic acid inhibited the uptake of 5-[3H]HETE into phosphatidylcholine with an ID50 of 2.5 and 1.25 microM, respectively. Stearic acid and 15-HETE were not effective inhibitors. Histamine, which activates phospholipases, increased the uptake of 5-[3H]HETE into phosphatidylcholine by 3-fold. Both 5-[3H]HETE and 12-[3H]HETE were incorporated into the neutral lipids of the cells. Analysis of the neutral lipid fraction revealed that 5-[3H]HETE was incorporated into mono-, di- and triacylglycerols but not cholesterol esters. Incorporation of 5-HETE into cellular lipids reduced histamine- and arachidonic acid-stimulated synthesis of 6-ketoprostaglandin F1 alpha and prostaglandin E2 in a concentration-related manner. Angiotensin I converting enzyme activity was not changed. Thus, 5-HETE is incorporated specifically into phosphatidylcholine and glycerol esters of human endothelial cells and this incorporation inhibits prostaglandin synthesis in these cells.  相似文献

Differences between the influences of phorbol esters (such as 4 beta-12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate) and of fatty acids (such as oleic acid) on the synthesis and turnover of phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) and other phospholipids have been studied in glioma (C6), neuroblastoma (N1E-115), and hybrid (NG108-15) cells in culture using [methyl-3H]choline, [32P]Pi, [1,2-14C]ethanolamine, or 1-14C-labeled fatty acids as lipid precursors. 100-500 microM oleic acid stimulated PtdCho synthesis 3- to 5-fold in all three cell lines, but had little influence on chase of choline label following a 24-h pulse. Phorbol ester (50-200 nM) stimulated PtdCho synthesis 1.5- to 3-fold in C6 cells, was without effect in N1E-115 cells, and had intermediate effects on NG108-15 cells. Phorbol ester stimulated both uptake of extracellular choline and synthesis of PtdCho, whereas fatty acid stimulated only synthesis. Release of radioactivity from 24-h pulse-labeled PtdCho to the medium was enhanced by phorbol ester in C6 cells. Incorporation of [32P]Pi, primarily into PtdCho, was stimulated, whereas utilization of [1,2-14C]ethanolamine or 1-14C-fatty acid was little altered by phorbol ester. C6 cells "down-regulated" with phorbol ester lost the stimulatory response of subsequent treatment with phorbol esters on PtdCho synthesis, but the response to fatty acid was enhanced. Fatty acid had little influence on the relative binding of phorbol ester or "translocation" of phorbol ester binding sites. Accordingly, metabolism of phospholipids in these cultured cells of neural origin is markedly influenced by cell type, phospholipid class, condition of incubation medium, and nature of stimulator. Phorbol esters and fatty acids appear to enhance phospholipid synthesis and turnover by distinct intracellular mechanisms.  相似文献

The effects of eicosapentaenoic acid on synthesis and secretion of cholesterol and cholesterol ester by cultured rat hepatocytes were studied. In the presence of eicosapentaenoic acid cellular cholesterol esterification was decreased by 50-75% compared to oleic acid as measured by radioactive precursors and mass. Secretion of cholesterol ester was reduced by 50-60% in the presence of eicosapentaenoic acid as evaluated by radiolabeled fatty acids, mevalonolactone, and mass measurement. Oleic, palmitic, and stearic acid increased, whereas eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acid decreased synthesis and secretion of cholesterol ester as compared to a fatty acid-free control. Cellular and secreted free cholesterol were unaffected by eicosapentaenoic acid in comparison with oleic acid. The reduced cholesterol esterification was observed within 1 h and lasted for at least 20 h. Eicosapentaenoic acid caused lower cholesterol esterification than oleic acid in the concentration range 0.2-1.0 mM fatty acid and reduced the stimulatory effect of oleic acid on cholesterol ester formation. Cholesterol esterification and release of cholesterol ester were markedly increased by 25-hydroxycholesterol in the presence of eicosapentaenoic acid as well as oleic acid. Experiments with liver microsomes revealed that radioactive eicosapentaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoyl-CoA were poorer substrates (7-30%) for cholesterol esterification than oleic acid and oleoyl-CoA. Reduced formation of cholesterol ester was also observed when eicosapentaenoyl-CoA was given together with labeled oleoyl-CoA, whereas palmitoyl-CoA, stearoyl-CoA, linolenoyl-CoA, and arachidonoyl-CoA had no inhibitory effect. In conclusion, eicosapentaenoic acid reduced cellular cholesterol esterification by inhibiting the activity of acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase. The lowered cholesterol esterification caused by eicosapentaenoic acid secondly decreased secretion of very low density lipoprotein cholesterol ester.  相似文献

The influence of retinoic acid on the incorporation of [1-14C]palmitic acid and [1-14C]arachidonic acid into phospholipids was examined in guinea pig peritoneal granulocytes. All-trans-retinoic acid inhibited the incorporation of both fatty acids into phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylinositol. However, it stimulated the incorporation of both fatty acids into phosphatidylcholine but not other phospholipids. All-trans-retinoic acid was more effective than 13-cis-retinoic acid. The influence of all-trans-retinoic acid on the acylation of phospholipids was concentration-dependent with significant effect occurring at 2.1 microM. The loss of labeled fatty acids from prelabeled phospholipids and the transport of labeled fatty acids into granulocytes were not responsive to the presence of retinoic acid in the incubation media. These results suggest that retinoic acid may affect the activities of acyltransferases involved in the synthesis of phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine.  相似文献

A possible role for an acidic subcellular compartment in biosynthesis of lung surfactant phospholipids was evaluated with granular pneumocytes in primary culture. Incubation with chloroquine (100μm) was used to perturb this compartment. With control cells, incorporation of [9,10-3H]palmitic acid into total lipids and into total phosphatidylcholines increased linearly with time up to 4h. Total incorporation into phosphatidylcholine during a 1h incubation was 999+85pmol of [9,10-3H]palmitic acid, 458±18pmol of [1-14C]oleic acid and 252±15pmol of [U-14C]glucose per μg of phosphatidylcholine phosphorus. The cellular content of either disaturated phosphatidylcholine or total phosphatidylcholines did not change during a 2h incubation with chloroquine. In the presence of chloroquine, the specific radioactivity of [3H]palmitic acid in disaturated phosphatidylcholine increased by 40%, and that of disaturated-phosphatidylcholine fatty acids from [U-14C]glucose increased by 125%. Incorporation of [1-14C]oleic acid into phosphatidylcholine was decreased by chloroquine by 79% and 33% in the presence or absence of palmitic acid respectively. Chloroquine stimulated phospholipase activity in intact cells, and in sonicated cells at pH4.0, but not at pH8.5. The observations indicate that chloroquine stimulates synthesis of disaturated phosphatidylcholine in granular pneumocytes from fatty acids, both exogenous and synthesized de novo, which can be due to stimulation of acidic phospholipase. This stimulation of acidic phospholipase A activity by chloroquine appears to be coupled to the synthesis of disaturated phosphatidylcholine, thereby enhancing remodelling of phosphatidylcholine synthesized de novo. Our findings, therefore, implicate the involvement of an acidic subcellular compartment in the remodelling pathway of disaturated phosphatidylcholine synthesis by granular pneumocytes.  相似文献
