Primary cultures of adult rat hepatocytes were used to compare the uptake and esterification of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (18:2, 20:3 and 20:4 of the n-6 series) with those of palmitic and oleic acids. The uptake of unesterified fatty acids was linearly related to the free fatty acid/albumin molar ratio for 14 h and did not depend on the unbound free fatty acid level. Whatever the initial free fatty acid/albumin molar ratio, it dropped to 0.5 +/- 0.1 mM after 14 h, thus showing that hepatocytes have a high capacity for clearing free fatty acids from the medium at high free fatty acid/albumin molar ratios. The free fatty acid uptake become saturable when the free fatty acid and albumin concentrations were raised and the free fatty acid/albumin ratio remained constant. This strongly suggests that albumin-hepatocyte interaction mediates free fatty acid uptake. This uptake was identical whatever the fatty acid tested and did not depend on the relative amounts of fatty acids when they were added simultaneously. Triacylglycerol accumulation and synthesis, monitored by labelled fatty acids, were related to the free fatty acid/albumin molar ratio and exhibited no specificity for the series of fatty acids tested. Triacylglycerols were enriched in all the fatty acids tested by up to 60%, and fatty acid incorporation into diacylglycerols and triacylglycerols reflected the free fatty acid composition of the medium. By contrast, neither the level nor the synthesis of phospholipids varied with free fatty acid/albumin, but the rate of phospholipid turnover depended on the fatty acids tested. Accumulation of these acids was smaller in phospholipids than in triacylglycerols. When linoleic and arachidonic acids were added together, phospholipids (especially phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylinositol) were more enriched in arachidonic acid than triacylglycerols. This might be due to the specificity for fatty acid of the enzymes involved in phospholipid metabolism. 相似文献

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The aim of this review is to highlight the importance of fatty acid metabolism as a major determinant in fatty acid uptake. In particular, we emphasize how the activation, intracellular transport and downstream metabolism of fatty acids influence their uptake into cells. RECENT FINDINGS: Studies examining fatty acid entry into cells have focused primarily on the roles of plasma membrane proteins or the question of passive diffusion. Recent studies, however, strongly suggest that a driving force governing fatty acid uptake is the metabolic demand for fatty acids. Both gain and loss-of-function experiments indicate that fatty acid uptake can be modulated by activation at both the plasma membrane and internal sites, by intracellular fatty acid binding proteins, and by enzymes in synthetic or degradative metabolic pathways. Although the mechanism is not known, it appears that converting fatty acids to acyl-CoAs and downstream metabolic intermediates increases cellular fatty acid uptake, probably by limiting efflux. SUMMARY: Altered fatty acid metabolism and the accumulation of triacylglycerol and lipid metabolites has been strongly associated with insulin resistance and diabetes, but we do not fully understand how the entry of fatty acids into cells is regulated. Future studies of cellular fatty acid uptake should consider the influence of fatty acid metabolism and the possible interactions between fatty acid metabolism or metabolites and fatty acid transport proteins. 相似文献

The blood-brain barrier (BBB), formed by the brain capillary endothelial cells, provides a protective barrier between the systemic blood and the extracellular environment of the CNS. Passage of fatty acids from the blood to the brain may occur either by diffusion or by proteins that facilitate their transport. Currently several protein families have been implicated in fatty acid transport. The focus of the present study was to identify the fatty acid transport proteins (FATPs) expressed in the brain microvessel endothelial cells and characterize their involvement in fatty acid transport across an in vitro BBB model. The major fatty acid transport proteins expressed in human brain microvessel endothelial cells (HBMEC), mouse capillaries and human grey matter were FATP-1, -4 and fatty acid binding protein 5 and fatty acid translocase/CD36. The passage of various radiolabeled fatty acids across confluent HBMEC monolayers was examined over a 30-min period in the presence of fatty acid free albumin in a 1 : 1 molar ratio. The apical to basolateral permeability of radiolabeled fatty acids was dependent upon both saturation and chain length of the fatty acid. Knockdown of various fatty acid transport proteins using siRNA significantly decreased radiolabeled fatty acid transport across the HBMEC monolayer. Our findings indicate that FATP-1 and FATP-4 are the predominant fatty acid transport proteins expressed in the BBB based on human and mouse expression studies. While transport studies in HBMEC monolayers support their involvement in fatty acid permeability, fatty acid translocase/CD36 also appears to play a prominent role in transport of fatty acids across HBMEC. 相似文献

In this study, lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC) was shown to bind to a fatty acid binding protein isolated from rat liver. To demonstrate the binding, lysoPC was incorporated into multilamellar liposomes and incubated with protein. For comparison, binding of both lysoPC and fatty acid to liver fatty acid binding protein, albumin, and heart fatty acid binding protein were measured. At conditions where palmitic acid bound to liver fatty acid binding protein and albumin at ligand to protein molar ratios of 2:1 and 5:1, respectively, lysoPC binding occurred at molar ratios of 0.4:1 and 1:1. LysoPC did not bind to heart fatty acid binding protein under conditions where fatty acid bound at a molar ratio of 2:1. Competition experiments between lysoPC and fatty acid to liver fatty acid binding protein indicated separate binding sites for each ligand. An equilibrium dialysis cell was used to demonstrate that liver fatty acid binding protein was capable of transporting lysoPC from liposomes to rat liver microsomes, thereby facilitating its metabolism. These studies suggest that liver fatty acid binding protein may be involved in the intracellular metabolism of lysoPC as well as fatty acids, and that functional differences may exist between rat liver and heart fatty acid binding protein. 相似文献

In order to study the influence of endothelial cell fatty acid composition on various membrane related parameters, several in vitro methods were developed for manipulating the fatty acid content of human endothelial cell membranes. Changes in membrane fatty acid profile were induced by using fatty acid modified lipoproteins or free fatty acids. The largest changes in endothelial fatty acid composition were obtained by culturing the cells in media supplemented with specific free fatty acids. An increase in arachidonic acid content of endothelial phospholipids was induced by supplementation with saturated fatty acids or with arachidonic acid itself. A decrease in arachidonic acid content was obtained by supplementation with other unsaturated fatty acids. Under the experimental conditions used endothelial cells showed a low desaturase activity and a high elongase activity. Considerable alterations in membrane fatty acid composition did not greatly influence certain membrane related parameters such as polymorphonuclear leukocyte adherence and endothelial cell procoagulant activity. In general, for fatty acid modified endothelial cells an association between endogenous arachidonic acid content and total production of eicosanoids was found. This study demonstrates that considerable changes in membrane fatty acid profile affect endothelial cell arachidonic acid metabolism, but it also illustrates homeostasis at the level of endothelial cell functional activity. 相似文献

Phenylketonuric patients are on a special diet that lacks certain essential fatty acids. This study evaluates the essential fatty acid status of a group of phenylketonuric patients in the Netherlands undergoing dietary treatment. To this end, the essential fatty acid status of nine phenylketonuria patients was studied. On the basis of age and gender, two control subjects were selected for each patient. The essential fatty acid composition of duplicate food portions and the essential fatty acid status of plasma and erythrocytes were analyzed. Phenylketonuria subjects had a different essential fatty acid profile from their peers, especially concerning the n-3 fatty acids. N-6 and n-3 fatty long-chain polyenes were hardly consumed by phenylketonuria subjects, in contrast to the control subjects. Linoleic acid, on the other hand, was consumed in significantly higher amounts by phenylketonuria subjects and made up about 40% of their daily fat consumption. The essential fatty acid consumption pattern of the phenylketonuria subjects is mirrored by the essential fatty acid concentrations in blood. The essential fatty acid status of the phenylketonuric diet should be improved in order to prevent deficiency in n-3 fatty acids. 相似文献

Ehrlich ascites tumor cells release free fatty acids (FFA) during in vitro incubation in media that contain albumin. The released FFA are derived by lipolysis from endogenous lipid esters. Addition of glucose to the incubation medium greatly decreases the quantity of fatty acid released by the cells. Cyanide, which inhibits endogenous lipid oxidation but not lipolysis, increases the quantity of fatty acid released to media containing albumin and causes free fatty acid to accumulate in the cells in the absence of exogenous albumin. The release of fatty acid, either preformed or derived by lipolysis during prolonged incubations, occurs under conditions of net fatty acid uptake from the incubation medium. Net release of fatty acid from the cell occurs only when fatty acid-extracted albumin is present in the extracellular medium; extrapolation of the data suggests that net release will not occur under physiological conditions. It is postulated that free fatty acid uptake and release are independent processes, the direction of net fatty acid movement being determined by the relationship between cellular free fatty acid concentration (regulating efflux) and the molar ratio of free fatty acid to albumin in the extracellular medium (regulating uptake). 相似文献

Two strains of Bacteroides asaccharolyticus and two strains of Bacteroides fragilis were analyzed for total fatty acid, total lipid fatty acid, and total bound fatty acid profiles. Extracted lipids and defatted cell residues were subjected to sequential alkaline and acid methanolyses to distinguish ester- and amide-linked fatty acids in each fraction. In the lipid fractions, all the ester-linked fatty acids were nonhydroxylated, whereas all of the amide-linked fatty acids were hydroxylated. In the nonextractable fractions, both hydroxy and nonhydroxy fatty acids were found in both ester and amide linkage, although hydroxy acids predominated. The fatty acid profiles of the bound fractions differed widely from those of the lipid fractions. Bound fatty acid represented approximately 10% of the total cellular fatty acids. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the change in tear volume, as a predominant symptom of dry eye syndrome, in dietary n-3 fatty acid deficient mice compared with n-3 fatty acid adequate mice. The tear volume in n-3 fatty acid deficient mice was significantly lower than that in n-3 fatty acid adequate mice. In addition, the concentration of n-3 fatty acid in the lacrimal and meibomian glands, which affects the production of tears, was markedly decreased compared with n-3 fatty acid adequate mice. However, the tear volume recovered almost completely after one week of continuous administration of fish oil containing EPA and DHA in n-3 fatty acid deficient mice. Also, the concentration of DHA in the meibomian gland of n-3 fatty acid deficient group recovered to approximately 80% more than that of n-3 fatty acid adequate group. These results suggested that dietary n-3 fatty acids deficiency showed reversible dry eye syndrome, and that n-3 fatty acids have an important role in the production of tears. 相似文献

The activities of the enzymes glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and fatty acid synthase are inhibited by palmitoyl-coenzyme
A and oleate. The two isoforms of fatty acid binding proteins (PI 6.9 and PI 5.4) enhance the activities of glycerol-3-phosphate
dehydrogenase and fatty acid synthase in the absence of palmitoyl-coenzyme A or oleate and also protect them against palmitoyl-coenzyme
A or oleate inhibition. Levels of fatty acid binding proteins, the activities of the enzymes fatty acid synthase and glycerol-3-phosphate
dehydrogenase increase with gestation showing a peak at term. However, the activity of fatty acid synthase showed the same
trend up to the 30th week of gestation and then declined slightly at term. With the advancement of pregnancy when more lipids
are required for the developing placenta, fatty acid binding proteins supply more fatty acids and glycerol-3-phosphate for
the synthesis of lipids. Thus a correlation exists between glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, fatty acid synthase and fatty
acid binding proteins in developing human placenta. 相似文献

Pyrophosphatidic acid isolated from Cryptococcus neoformans was degraded to phosphatidic acid in aqueous pyridine. The phosphatidic acid was hydrolyzed by phospholipase A (EC 3.1.1.4) of Crotalus adamanteus to lysophosphatidic acid and 2-positioned fatty acids. From the analyses of the fatty acid composition of pyrophosphatidic acid and its degraded products (phosphatidid acid, lysophosphatidic acid, and fatty acid), it was concluded that most of the saturated fatty acids of pyrophosphatidic acid were at the 1,1'-positions while the unsaturated fatty acids were largely confined to the 2,2'-positions. The positional specificity of the fatty acids in pyrophosphatidic acid coincided with that of ordinary glycerophosphatides. 相似文献

Previous studies have demonstrated that the branched-chain fatty acid anteiso-C15:0 plays a critical role in the growth of Listeria monocytogenes at low temperatures by ensuring sufficient membrane fluidity. Studies utilizing a chemically defined minimal medium revealed that the anteiso fatty acid precursor isoleucine largely determined the fatty acid profile and fatty acid response of the organism to lowered growth temperature. When isoleucine was sufficient, the fatty acid profile was very uniform, with anteiso fatty acids comprising up to 95% of total fatty acid, and the major fatty acid adjustment to low temperature was fatty acid chain shortening, which resulted in an increase of anteiso-C15:0 solely at the expense of anteiso-C17:0. When isoleucine was not supplied, the fatty acid profile became more complex and was readily modified by leucine, which resulted in a significant increase of corresponding iso fatty acids and an inability to grow at 10 degrees C. Under this condition, the increase of anteiso-C15:0 at low temperature resulted from the combined effect of increasing the anteiso:iso ratio and chain shortening. A branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase-defective strain largely lost the ability to increase the anteiso:iso ratio. Cerulenin, an inhibitor of beta-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase (FabF), induced a similar fatty acid chain shortening as low temperature did. We propose that the anteiso precursor preferences of enzymes in the branched-chain fatty acid biosynthesis pathway ensure a high production of anteiso fatty acids, and cold-regulated chain shortening results in a further increase of anteiso-C15:0 at the expense of anteiso-C17:0. 相似文献

To examine the impact of intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) on essential fatty acids in human placenta, fatty acid composition in total acylglycerol and in the major phosphoglycerides phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), of 15 placentas from small for gestational age (SGA) births was compared with that of 7 control placentas. The acylglycerol fatty acid content was similar between the two groups, but the proportion of fatty acids of the linoleic acid series, including arachidonic acid, was significantly lower in SGA placentas. When the fatty acid composition in PC was studied, the reduction in fatty acids of the linoleic acid series was even more striking, and fatty acids of the linolenic acid series was also significantly less in the SGA group. These fatty acid changes in placenta membrane phospholipids can affect the transport of important nutrients to the fetal compartment. The decreased level of arachidonic acid and docosahexanoic acid might also lead to a disturbed formation of fetal thromboxane and prostacyclin. However, cord plasma PC fatty acid patterns were nearly identical in the two groups suggesting that in IUGR, the essential fatty acids will be transported to the fetus at the expense of the placenta. 相似文献

Silencing of hepatic fatty acid transporter protein 5 in vivo reverses diet-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and improves hyperglycemia 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is a serious health problem linked to obesity and type 2 diabetes. To investigate the biological outcome and therapeutic potential of hepatic fatty acid uptake inhibition, we utilized an adeno-associated virus-mediated RNA interference technique to knock down the expression of hepatic fatty acid transport protein 5 in vivo prior to or after establishing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in mice. Using this approach, we demonstrate here the ability to achieve specific, non-toxic, and persistent knockdown of fatty acid transport protein 5 in mouse livers from a single adeno-associated virus injection, resulting in a marked reduction of hepatic dietary fatty acid uptake, reduced caloric uptake, and concomitant protection from diet-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Importantly, knockdown of fatty acid transport protein 5 was also able to reverse already established non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, resulting in significantly improved whole-body glucose homeostasis. Thus, continued activity of hepatic fatty acid transport protein 5 is required to sustain caloric uptake and fatty acid flux into the liver during high fat feeding and may present a novel avenue for the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. 相似文献

1. Retina in vitro showed progressive uptake of non-esterified fatty acid, given in the form of complexes with bovine serum albumin. The rate of influx was related linearly to the concentration of non-esterified fatty acid in the incubation medium and was enhanced by glucose. 2. There was some exchange between medium and tissue non-esterified fatty acid, particularly in the early stages of incubation, and this probably corresponded to the rapid labelling of one component of the tissue non-esterified fatty acid pool. A much slower exchange with tissue non-esterified fatty acid was also evident, not reaching equilibrium even after 7½ hr. incubation. Within the tissue, non-esterified fatty acid also found its way into the fat esters, and about 10% of the uptake was oxidized to carbon dioxide. 3. At high concentrations of non-esterified fatty acid in the medium, disproportionately more of the ingoing non-esterified fatty acid was found in the fat esters of the tissue, whereas the proportion in the tissue non-esterified fatty acid pool or oxidized to carbon dioxide did not change. 4. The role of non-esterified fatty acid as an energy-producing oxidizable substrate is discussed and the regulating influence of glucose on the metabolism of non-esterified fatty acid considered. 相似文献

Utilization of free fatty acids complexed to human plasma lipoproteins by mammalian cell suspensions
The purpose of this study was to determine whether lipoprotein-bound free fatty acid could be utilized by isolated mammalian cells. Ehrlich ascites tumor cells were incubated in vitro with radioactive free fatty acids that were bound to human plasma lipoproteins. Under these conditions, lipoprotein-bound free fatty acids were readily taken up by the cells. After 2 min of incubation with free fatty acids bound to low density lipoproteins, most of the radioactivity that was associated with the cells was in the form of free fatty acids. As the incubation continued, increasing amounts of radioactivity were incorporated into CO(2) and cell lipids, particularly phospholipids. Most of the free fatty acid uptake was the result of fatty acid transfer from low density lipoproteins to the cell, not from irreversible incorporation of the intact free fatty acid-low density lipoprotein complex. Fatty acid uptake increased as the ratio of free fatty acid to low density lipoprotein was raised. When albumin was added to the medium, free fatty acid uptake decreased. A large percentage of the newly incorporated cellular radioactivity was released into the medium if the cells were exposed subsequently to a solution containing albumin. Most of the released radioactivity was in the form of free fatty acid. The results with this experimental model suggest that lipoprotein-bound free fatty acid, like albumin-bound free fatty acid, is readily available for uptake by isolated cells. The mechanism of free fatty acid utilization by the Ehrlich cell is similar when either low density lipoprotein or serum albumin serves as the fatty acid carrier. 相似文献
