Abstract— The distribution of radioactivity among lipids of subcellular membrane fractions was examined after intracerebral injections of [1-14 C]oleic and [1-14 C]arachidonic acids. Labelled free fatty acids were distributed among the synaptosomal-rich, microsomal, myelin and cytosol fractions at 1 min after injection. However, incorporation of the fatty acids into phospholipids and trïacylglycerols after pulse labelling occurred mainly in the microsomal and synaptosomal-rich fractions. With both types of labelled precursors, there was a higher percentage of radioactivity of diacyl-glycerophosphoryl-inositols in the synaptosomal-rich fraction as compared to the microsomal fraction. Radioactivity of [1-14 C]oleic acid was effectively incorporated into the triacylglycerols in the microsomal fraction whereas radioactivity of the [1-14 C]arachidonic acid was preferentially incorporated into the diacyl-glycerophosphorylinositols in the synaptosomal-rich fraction. Result of the study indicates that synaptosomal-rich fraction in brain is able to metabolize long chain free fatty acids in vivo and to incorporate these precursors into the membrane phosphoglycerides. 相似文献

—The incorporation of [1-14C]acetate into unesterified fatty acids and into the fatty acids of neutral glycerides and of phospholipids has been measured in rat cerebral cortex in vivo. The most rapid incorporation is seen in the unesterified fatty acids which have a turnover time of 5-6 min. It is suggested that unesterified fatty acids are precursors to neutral glycerides and phospholipids rather than being derived from them by lipase activity. 相似文献

Abstract— Twenty-one-day old essential fatty acid (EFA) deprived rats incorporated about twice the radioactivity from [1-14 C]linolenate into brain lipid fractions as did controls. At 5 min after injection, 2/3 of the radioactivity was associated with the less polar lipid fraction of both control and EFA deprived animals. By 30 min after injection, 70% of the radioactivity was in the phospholipid fraction. This value increased to 90% at later time points.
The specific activity of brain phospholipids from EFA deprived rats was always greater than that of controls. This held true for the individual phosphatide fractions also. In general, phosphatidylcholine (PC) was labeled most rapidly. With increasing time intervals, radioactivity was transferred to phospha-tidylethanolamine (PE) and phosphatidylserine + phosphatidylinositol (PS + PI).
The transfer of fatty acid radioactivity into phospholipid and the distribution of radioactivity among individual phosphatides did not appear to be affected by the dietary state. However, the total amount of radioactivity incorporated was related to the amount initially retained by brain after injection. Our data suggest that one or more components of the less polar lipid fraction may act as a 'trap' or reservoir for fatty acids which are required for phospholipid synthesis. 相似文献

By macroautoradiography and by GLC separation, differences in the uptake of radioactive carbon from [U-14C]glucose into free amino acids (glutamate + glutamine, aspartate + asparagine, GABA, alanine and glycine) in mouse cerebral neocortex, hippocampus, thalamus and hypothalamus were investigated. (1) The autoradiographical densities in the thalamus, cerebral neocortex and hippocampus measured with a microdensitometer were higher than that in the hypothalamus at 5 min after subcutaneous injection. At 180 min, densities in the cerebral neocortex, hippocampus and hypothalamus were higher than that in thalamus. (2) The free amino acid levels determined by GLC varied with each brain region. (3) The specific radioactivity (d.p.m./μmol) of alanine in each brain region was higher than that of the other amino acids at 5 min after the injection. The specific radioactivity of GABA in the brain regions was clearly higher than that of (glutamate + glutamine), (aspartate + asparagine) and glycine at 5 and 15 min. (4) The autoradiographical data were in good agreement with the chemical data at 5 min but were different at 180 min. (5) Variations in specific radioactivity of each free amino acid among brain regions at 5 min were influenced greatly by existing free amino acid concentrations in each region. 相似文献

—The conversion of [l-14C]palmitic acid to [1-14C]hexadecanol has been demonstrated with a cell-free system from developing rat brain. ATP, Coenzyme A and Mg2+ were required for the activity. Fatty aldehyde was found to be an intermediate in this reaction. The conversion of fatty acid to fatty alcohol was mainly localized in the microsomal fraction and the formation of hexadecanol showed absolute specificity towards NADPH while fatty aldehyde was formed even in the absence of exogenous reduced pyridine nucleotides. The brain microsomes showed maximal activity with stearic acid and the activities with palmitic and oleic acids were 65% and 38% respectively of that with stearic acid. This enzymic reduction increased with age and showed a maximum in the 15-day old rat brain. 相似文献

Abstract— Incorporation of dl -[1-14 C]leucine into proteins of the cerebral cortex of the rat was measured during spreading cortical depression (CSD) evoked by a single topical application of 25% (w/v) KCI. Maximal inhibition (42 per cent) of the rate of incorporation occurred 1 hr after application of KCI. Spreading depression of 2–3 hr duration was associated with 22 per cent and 13 per cent decreases, respectively, of incorporation of labelled leucine. Specific activity of the free pool leucine was not decreased during CSD but appeared to be higher than controls at 20 min after initiation of CSD. The specific activity of the total free pool amino acids was also increased at 10, 20, 60 and 120 min after application of KCI.
The inhibitory effect of CSD on incorporation of leucine into proteins was uniformly distributed among the crude mitochondrial, microsomal and soluble subcellular fractions from brains of adult animals, while in fractions from 25-day old animals there appeared to be relatively more inhibition in the crude mitochondrial fraction. 相似文献

INCORPORATION OF [14 C]N-ACETYL NEURAMINIC ACID INTO BRAIN GLYCOPROTEINS AND GANGLIOSIDES IN VIVO1 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
—Intracerebrally administered [14C]N-acetyl neuraminic acid was incorporated into brain glycoproteins and gangliosides. Incorporation into both classes of compounds was markedly inhibited by acetoxycycloheximide but incorporation into the soluble glycoproteins of the nerve-ending fraction was inhibited least of all. In contrast to glucosamine and fucose, a relatively small proportion of the injected [14C]NANA was incorporated. 相似文献

Abstract— The formation of histamine in brain was studied in mice injected with l -[14 C]-histidine (ring 2-14 C) intravenously (i.v.) or intracerebrally; [14 C]histamine appeared rapidly and exhibited a rapid rate of turnover. Drugs known to block various pathways of histamine catabolism were tested for effects on brain–[14 C]histamine and [14 C]-methyl-histamine in mice given (1) [14 C]histamine i.v., (2) [14 C]histamine intracerebrally, and (3) l -[14 C]histidine i.v. Blood-borne histamine did not enter brain; brain histamine was formed locally by decarboxylation of histidine Methylhistamine did cross the blood-brain barrier. Methylation was the major route of histamine catabolism in mouse brain and some of the methylhistamine formed was destroyed by monoamine oxidase. No evidence for catabolism by the action of diamine oxidase was found. 相似文献

—During anoxia induced by the administration of potassium cyanide, [U-14C]glucose was injected intraperitoneally into adult mice and they were decapitated at 5, 15 and 30 min after the injection. After freeze-drying in vacuo, differences in the uptake of radioactive carbon from [U-14C]glucose into free amino acids (glutamate + glutamine, aspartate + asparagine, GABA, alanine and glycine) in mouse cerebral neocortex, cerebellar hemisphere, caudate nucleus, thalamus, hypothalamus and medulla oblongata were investigated (by macroautoradiography and GLC separation) and compared with those obtained under normal conditions. (1) During anoxia, autoradiographical densities in the thalamus and medulla oblongata were higher than that in the cerebral neocortex and caudate nucleus. (2) Among specific radioactivities (d.p.m./μmol) of free amino acids, alanine gave the highest value during anoxia, except in the cerebellar hemisphere and hypothalamus at 5 min and the medulla oblongata at 30 min. (3) During anoxia, the specific radioactivities of alanine and glycine in each brain region did not significantly decrease at 15 and 30 min compared with those under normal conditions. During anoxia, the specific radioactivity of glutamate + glutamine in the cerebellar hemisphere and hypothalamus did not significantly decrease compared with the normal conditions, while that of GABA, aspartate + asparagine and glutamate + glutamine in the cerebral neocortex, caudate nucleus, thalamus and medulla oblongata showed an increase. (4) The percentage decrease of glutamate + glutamine and aspartate + asparagine at 5 and 15 min was highly significant in the cerebral neocortex and caudate nucleus. 相似文献

—The incorporation of an orally administered mixture of [9,10-3H2joleic acid and [1-14C]linoleic acid into the brain and spinal cord lipids was maximal after 24 h compared with 4 h for extraneural tissue. In the latter, both acids were utilized equally well for triglyceride biosynthesis, but linoleate entered phosphatidylcholine more rapidly than oleate. Oleic acid was preferentially incorporated into newly synthesized cholesterol esters although 4 h after dosing most cholesterol esters present in serum were formed preferentially from linoleate presumably by the action of lecithin-cholesterol acyl transferase. In neural tissue, a considerable amount of [1-14C]linoleate was metabolized to higher polyunsaturated fatty acids, whereas in the case of oleate, 90 per cent of the tritium activity remained in monoenic acids at all time periods studied. Both acids were initially incorporated most rapidly into the lecithin fraction of brain and spinal cord, but after 7 days diacyl phosphatidylethanolamine had the highest specific activity. These data are consistent with the view that the uptake of labelled fatty acids by the brain takes place principally as free acids but that some uptake of esterified forms, probably largely as phosphatidylcholine, also occurs. The low linoleate content of the brain and probably also of cerebrospinal fluid cannot be explained on the basis of a selective restriction on the uptake of this lipid from plasma. 相似文献

The distribution of [14C]-labelled material into subcellular fractions of 15-day-old rat brain was studied at 2 and 24 h following intraperitoneal and intracerebral injection of [2-14C]sodium acetate, [U-14C]glucose and [2-14C]mevalonic acid respectively. The total quantity of labelled isoprenoids in the brain was, except for glucose, greater when the precursor was administered intracerebrally. The intraperitoneal route was more advantageous in the case of [U-14C]glucose. The subcellular distribution of both labelled total isoprenoid material and sterol was distinct for each labelled precursor. Intracerebrally injected [U-14C]glucose at both time periods studied suggested no dominance of labelling in any fraction. After intraperitoneal injection of [U-14C]glucose the microsomes were more prominently labelled. Both methods of administration of sodium [2-14C]acetate resulted in heavy labelling of the myelin fraction after 24 h. The total labelled isoprenoids resided mainly in the microsomes 24 h after injection of [2-14C]mevalonic acid. Labelled sterol was found to be localized more in the myelin and microsomal fractions for all three precursors than was the labelled total isoprenoids. Depending on the type of experiment to be conducted, each of these precursors can give different results, which must be interpreted accordingly. 相似文献

Abstract—
- 1 The conditions for incorporation of [14C]glycine in vitro into proteins in the sciatic nerve of chickens have been studied and found to be similar to those of rat nerve.
- 2 Its incorporation decreases, however, linearly with age.
- 3 The content of RNA and of DNA of peripheral nerve and the RNA/DNA ratio alter linearly with age.
- 4 There is also a linear relationship between the specific radioactivity of the protein extract and the RNA content of the nerve.
- 5 There is a linear decline with age in the specific radioactivity of the protein fraction when expressed against the DNA content.
- 6 A linear relationship exists between the logarithm of the specific radioactivity and the length of the femur.

—Adult rats were killed 16 h, 48 h, 6 days and 21 days after intracerebral application of n-[15,16-3H]tetracosanoic acid (lignoceric acid). After incorporation into complex lipids with a strong preference for the ester-bound fatty acids of glycerophospholipids, radioactivity decreased with time. The incorporated activity into the amide-bound fatty acids of sphingolipids was also shown to decrease, with exception of the cerebroside of the hydroxy fatty acid type (cerebron fraction). Only negligible amounts of labelled triglyceride and cholesterol ester could be detected. The fatty acids derived from the complex lipids were analysed by radio gas chromatography. It was revealed that some of the applied labelled lignoceric acid was hydroxylated and incorporated into the cerebron fraction while the rest had their chains shortened. In the latter case all even and odd numbered chain lengths down to C18 and C16 (stearic and palmitic acid) were detected. At this stage, the pool of the degradation products of lignoceric acid is stabilized by the preferred incorporation of fatty acids of these chain lengths into glycerophospholipids. A time-dependent desaturation to oleic acid from stearic acid was observed. 相似文献

THE EFFECT OF MORPHINE ADMINISTRATION ON THE INCORPORATION OF [14 C]LEUCINE INTO PROTEIN IN CELL-FREE SYSTEMS FROM RAT BRAIN AND LIVER 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
—Ribosomes isolated from the brains of rats treated with morphine in vivo were less active in promoting the incorporation of [14C]leucine into protein than ribosomes isolated from untreated rats. This inhibitory phenomenon was studied in relation to dose of morphine, time after drug administration and the pharmacological responses of hypothermia and analgesia. The inhibition of [14C]leucine incorporation into brain proteins in vitro was transient after a single injection of morphine and dose-dependent, and related to the hypothermic response, but not prevented by keeping the rats at an ambient temperature which prevented hypothermia. The incorporation of [14C]leucine into protein by liver ribosomes was also inhibited in preparations from morphine treated rats. 相似文献

Abstract— [1-14C]Arachidonic acid was incorporated into brain lipids with a half-life of approx. 5 min. Within 40 min after intra-cerebral injection, radioactivity was distributed mainly among the diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine (45 per cent), diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylinositol (22 per cent), diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylethanolamine (14 per cent) and triacylglycerols (9 per cent). At comparable times, the proportions of radioactivity distributed in diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylserines and alkenylacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylethanolamines were relatively small. Radioactivity was initially incorporated into the phosphatidio acids and diacylglycerols before labelling of the triacylglycerols and other phosphogly-cerides. The relative specific activity of diacylglycerols was maximum between 3–6 min after injection. Due to the small level of diacyl-sn-3-phosphorylinositol present in brain, its relative specific radioactivity was higher than other types of brain phosphoglycerides. Results of the experiment thus indicate that labelled arachidonic acid is an excellent precursor for metabolic studies with regard to acyl groups present in the 2-position of the phosphoglyceride molecules. Furthermore, this labelled precursor is specially useful in studies related to metabolism of diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylinositol in brain. 相似文献

—(1) The rate of incorporation in vitro of [14C]glycine into adult rat peripheral nerve protein was studied and found to be linear up to a concentration of 4.5 μc/ml. It was also linear with time of incubation up to at least 6 hr. (2) Anaerobiosis, potassium cyanide, dinitrophenol and diphtheria toxin inhibited the incorporation of [14C]glycine into protein, in a manner comparable to other tissues. 相似文献

Abstract— Following intracranial and intraperitoneal injection of acetyl- l -[U-14 C]aspartate into mice about 5% and 0.7% of the radioactivity, respectively, was recovered from the brain after 30 min.
On chromatographic separation of the cationic and anionic compounds on a Dowex 50 column, the former fraction contained about 60% of the radioactivity, predominantly as labelled aspartate and glutamate. The anionic compounds, containing 20% of the labelled compounds, were fractionated in several chromatographic systems and resolved into a great variety of labelled peptidic compounds of which five acetyl-[U14 -C]aspartyl peptides, containing two to four amino acids, were purified. One of these, acetyl-aspartyl glutamine, has not previously been found in brain. 相似文献
