The effect of bicuculline-induced convulsive seizures on lipid metabolism has been studied in four brain areas (cerebellum, cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and brainstem) using [2-3H]glycerol and [1,2-14C]ethanolamine as radioactive lipid precursors administered simultaneously with bicuculline. Twelve minutes after the administration, the uptake of radioactivity depended both on brain area and treatment, being generally higher in convulsing rats. The uptake of glycerol was influenced to a larger extent than that of ethanolamine and increased during convulsions, but its incorporation into lipids did not. In contrast, the amount of ethanolamine incorporated into lipids increased during bicuculline-induced seizures. The difference in behavior of glycerol and of ethanolamine is also indicated by the decrease of the 3H/14C ratio of phosphatidyl-ethanolamine in various brain areas during convulsions. It is, therefore, evident that the metabolism of the two precursors is affected differently by seizures. 相似文献

The content and fatty acid composition of phospholipids and the in vivo labeling of lipids by [3H]glycerol and [3H]serine was studied in the retina and the optic tectum of young chickens. The tectum had a higher content of phospholipids and a significantly lower ratio of choline (CGP) to ethanolamine (EGP) glycerophospholipids than the retina. Lipids of the chicken optic system were characterized by a high proportion of polyenoic fatty acids of the n-6 series compared to other species. Intravitreally injected [3H]glycerol was incorporated into all glycerol-containing lipids of the retina, especially in CGP and EGP. Most of the label from [3H]serine was found in serine glycerophospholipids (SGP). The time-dependent distribution of both precursors among retinal lipids was consistent with de novo synthesis as well as metabolic interconversions of lipids. Thus, [3H] from serine also appeared in EGP and CGP, indicating the presence and activity of SGP decarboxylase and EGP-n-methyl transferase. Lipids labeled with both precursors in retina were subsequently found in the tectum, via axoplasmic transport. Even though different lipid classes were labelled by each precursor the proportion of lipids transported to the tectum was similar in both cases (about 1% of the label present in retina). 相似文献

It has been demonstrated that spontaneously hypertensive adult rats (SHR) develop severe hypertension and cerebrovascular lesions on drinking 1% NaCl from weaning. Phospholipid metabolism is actively altered in these severely lesioned animals (SHR-NaCl) as compared to SHRs which drink only water and showed only sporadic cerebrovascular lesions. We have tested the incorporation of water soluble phospholipid precursors into the corresponding phospholipid from different brain areas, by injecting either a mixture of labeled glycerol and choline or glycerol and ethanolamine into the lateral ventricle of the brain of adult (4 months old) and senescent (12 months old) SHR-NaCl. The results were compared to those obtained from 4 and 12 months old Wistar normotensive rats. When adult normotensive rats were compared with adult hypertensive rats (4-SHR-NaCl) incorporation was found to decrease in some areas according to the precursors injected. Similar results were obtained from 12 month old normotensive Wistar rats that, however, showed a decrease in phospholipid biosynthesis in all the area tested. Interestingly, no significant differences of incorporation rate were found between 12 month old normotensive and 12 month old hypertensive rats. 相似文献

Comparative studies were undertaken on the in vivo and in vitro incorporation of [14C] ethanolamine, [3H] methionine and [14C] S-adenosyl-methionine into phosphatidylethanolamine (PhE) and phosphatidylcholine (PhC) of rat liver and brain. It was observed that brain can synthesize de novo PhC from PhE via the transmethylation pathway, however synthesis rates were (1) markedly lower than those of liver and (2) decreased significantly with age. In the choline-containing lipids more than 95% of the radioactivity was found in PhC. Studies on the localization of the radioactivity in PhC following the intracranial injection of [3H] methionine or [14C] ethanolamine revealed that both precursors are incorporated almost exclusively into the choline moiety of this phospholipid. There was significant labeling of PhC only when the precursors were administered intracranially and much less incorporation was observed with the systemic routes. Thus following the intravenous administration of [14C] ethanolamine, the specific radioactivities of liver PhE and PhC were up to 75 times as high as those of brain and 4 to 5 times as high in the organs of the 20-day old as those of the adult. In contrast, when this precursor was administered intracranially the specific radioactivities of both phospholipids in liver were only twice as high as those of brain. Although the short-and long-term time-course studies on the in vivo incorporation of [14C] ethanolamine and [3H] methionine into PhC of both organs could suggest a precursor-product relationship between the biosynthesis of this phospholipid in liver and brain, this apparent relationship could also be due to the high turnover of PhE in liver, with half-life of 2.87 hr, and its low turnover in brain, with half-life of 10.7 days. The present findings on the low rate of formation of PhC from PhE in brain coupled with the fact that this conversion declines sharply with age, especially when the isotopes are administered systemically, could explain the observation of previous investigators that the brain cannot synthesize its own choline and thus it must derive its choline from exogenous sources such as lipid-choline. It was concluded that the brain can synthesize its own choline; however it remains also dependent on liver and dietary choline which are probably transported into the brain as free choline. 相似文献

Differential Incorporation of Precursor Moieties into Cerebral Cortex and Cerebellum Glycerophospholipids During Aging 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The incorporation of polar and non-polar moieties into cerebral cortex (CC) and cerebellum (CRBL) phospholipids of adult (3.5-month-old) and aged (21.5-month-old) rats was studied in a minced tissue suspension. The biosynthesis of acidic phospholipids through [3H]glycerol appears to be slightly increased with respect to that of zwitterionic or neutral lipids in CC of aged rats with respect to adult rats. On the contrary, the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) from [3H]choline was inhibited. However, the incorporation of [14C]serine into phosphatidylserine (PS) was higher in CC and CRBL in aged rats with respect to adult rats. The synthesis of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) from PS was not modified during aging. Saturated ([3H]palmitic) and polyunsaturated ([3H]arachidonic) acids were incorporated successfully by adult and aged brain lipids. In addition [3H]palmitic, [3H]oleic and [3H]arachidonic acid were employed as glycerolipid precursors in brain homogenate from aged (28.5 month old) and adult (3.5 month old) rats. [3H]oleic acid incorporation into neutral lipids (NL) and [3H]arachidonic acid incorporation into PC, PE and phosphatidylinositol (PI) were increased in aged rats with respect to adult rats. Present results show the ability and avidity of aged brain tissue in vitro to incorporate unsaturated fatty acids when they are supplied exogenously. They also suggest a different handling of choline and serine by base exchange enzyme activities to synthesize PC and PS during aging. 相似文献

Abstract: Oligodendroglia prepared from minced calf cerebral white matter by trypsinization at pH 7.4, screening, and isosmotic Percoll (polyvinylpyr-rolidone-coated silica gel) density gradient centrifugation survived in culture on polylysine-coated glass, extending processes and maintaining phenotypic characteristics of oligodendroglia. In the present study, ethanolamine glycerophospholipid (EGP) metabolism of the freshly isolated cells was examined during short-term suspension culture by dual label time course and substrate concentration dependence experiments with [2-3 H]glycerol and either [1,2-14 C]ethanolamine or L-[U-14 C]serine. Rates of incorporation of 3 H from the glycerol and of 14 C from the ethanolamine into EGP were constant for 14 h. In medium containing 3 mM-[1,2-14 C]ethanolamine and 4.8 mM-[2-3 H]glycerol, rates of incorporation of 14 C and 3 H into diacyl glycerophosphoethanolamine (diacyl GPE) were similar. Under the same conditions, 3 H specific activities of alkylacyl GPE and alkenylacyl GPE were much lower than 14 C specific activities, likely as a result of the loss of tritium during synthesis of these forms of EGP via dihydroxyacetone phosphate. L-[U-14 C]serine was incorporated into serine glycerophospholipid (SGP) by base exchange rather than de novo synthesis. 14 C from L-[U-14 C]serine also appeared in EGP after an initial lag period of several hours. Methylation of oligodendroglial EGP to choline glycerophospholipid (CGP) was not detected. 相似文献

Phospholipid composition and [14C]glycerol incorporation into glycerolipids of toad retina and brain
The phospholipid composition as well as the in vivo [14C]glycerol uptake in lipids was found to be similar in the toad brain and retina. The choroid lipid labeling was markedly different. An in vitro time-course study of [14C]glycerol incorporation in toad retina lipids disclosed that under the conditions of these experiments: (1) retina is able to rapidly synthesize phosphatidic acid from the radioactive precursor; (2) the sequence phosphatidic acid-diacylglycerol-triacylglycerol operates; (3) a high rate of phosphatidylinositol de novo biosynthesis takes place; (4) phosphoglycerides of choline and of ethanolamine are also heavily labeled after a lag period; (5) in vivo labeling profiles resembled those obtained in vitro mainly regarding phosphatidylinositol biosynthesis; and (6) the presence of glycerol kinase in the CNS is suggested. 相似文献

Ethanolamine Glycerophospholipid Formation by Decarboxylation of Serine Glycerophospholipids in Myelinating Organ Cultures of Cerebellum 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

Abstract: Serine decarboxylation as a source of glycer-ophospholipid ethanolamine is known to occur in mammals. However, early investigators failed to demonstrate the pathway in brain. In the present study serine is shown to be decarboxylated to glycerophospholipid ethanolamine in myelinating organ cultures of rat cerebellum up to 32 days in vitro. The pattern of incorporation of l -[3-14 C]serine into culture phospholipids strongly suggests a precursor-product relationship between serine glycero-phospholipids (SGP) and ethanolamine glycerophospho-lipids (EGP), with serine label appearing in the ethanolamine moiety of EGP. The time course of labelling was similar for both acid-stable and acid-labile EGP In contrast DL-[l-14 C]serine failed to label EGP significantly due to the loss of serine carbon C1 on decarboxylation. Through the systematic hydrolysis of phospholipids from cerebellar cultures incubated with l -[3-14 C], it was clear that in SGP, acid-stable EGP, and acid-labile EGP >70% of radiolabel resides in the base moiety of each of these molecular species. It is proposed that serine decarboxylation as a source of EGP ethanolamine may be important in the early stages of brain development. 相似文献

Abstract— —The ethanolamine phosphatide fraction was isolated from rat brain at 17, 19, and 22 days of age. Analysis by gas-liquid chromatography of the liberated fatty aldehydes and alkyl glyceryl ethers demonstrated a chain length composition quite distinct from that of the fatty acids in the comparable 1(3)-position of the diacyl phosphatides. [1-14C]-Acetate was administered intraperitoneally to 17-day-old rats. With the exception of the polyunsaturated fatty acids, isotope was readily incorporated into the individual side chains of the 1- and 2-positions of the glycerol moiety. Time studies revealed no readily discernible precursor-product relationships among the linkages in question. Therefore, although the long chain precursors for the alkenyl and alkyl ethers may be related by biosynthetic interconversion, the isotope data are suggestive of independent pathways of biosynthesis for the alkenyl ether, alkyl ether, and ester linkages. 相似文献

Metabolism of triacylglycerol (TAG) in developing brain has been examined. TAG is a relatively minor fraction of brain lipid in both suckling and adult rats and cannot be accounted for as entrapped blood. When glycerol tri[1-14C]oleate and [2-3H]glycerol trioleate were simultaneously injected intracerebrally into suckling rats, both labels appeared in diacylglycerol and the major phospholipids; acyl chain label was incorporated more extensively at early time points, with choline phosphoglycerides being most actively labeled. With [1-14C]fatty acids and [2-3H] glycerol administration, the specific activity of TAG was much greater than that of the more abundant phospholipids. Although direct acyl exchange between TAG and phospholipids was not demonstrated, relationships of TAG to selective mechanisms of phosphoglyceride synthesis were indicated.Abbreviations used TAG

Metabolism of the ethanolamine phosphoglycerides of mouse brain myelin and microsomes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
L A Horrocks 《Journal of neurochemistry》1969,16(1):13-18
Abstract— Three groups of six mice each were killed 1, 4 and 7 days after an intracerebral injection of [1,2-14C]ethanolamine. The specific radioactivities of the acid-labile ethanolamine phosphoglycerides (ethanolamine plasmalogens) and of the acid-stable ethanolamine phosphoglycerides (diacyl and alkyl acyl glycerophosphoryletholamines) from myelin and microsomal fractions were determined. All of these brain ethanolamine phosphoglycerides turn over rapidly with an apparent half-life of less than 3 days. The biosynthesis of alkenyl acyl glycerophosphorylethanolamines from diacyl glycerophosphorylethanolamines in mouse brain myelin or microsomes is unlikely. 相似文献

The biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in monocyte-like leukemia U937 cells was monitored by adding [3H]choline, [14C]ethanolamine or [14C]glycerol to the culture media; incorporation into phospholipid (PL) increased with time. The effect of unsaturated fatty acids (UFA) on PC and PE synthesis was investigated by pretreating U937 cells for 72h with 10 μM 18:1 (n –9), 18:2 (n –6), 18:3 (n –3), 20:4 (n –6) and 20:5 (n –3). The UFA caused no alteration in cell growth, as evidenced by light microscopy and the incorporation of [3H]thymidine and [3H]leucine. Total cellular uptake of radioactive precursors remained unaffected by all the treatments. Pretreatment with 20:5 resulted in approximately 25 per cent reduction in the incorporation of [3H]choline into PL, while no significant effect was detected with the other UFAs. 18:3, 20:4 and 20:5 depressed the incorporation of [14C]ethanolamine into PL by 34 per cent, 28 per cent and 49 per cent respectively. However, there was no redistribution of label with any of the treatments. 18:3, 20:4 and 20:5 also antagonized the stimulatory effect of endotoxin (LPS) on PC and PE synthesis. In addition, the incorporation from [14C]glycerol into PC and PE was reduced by 18:3, 20:4 and 20:5. Although the PL composition of the cells remained essentially unaffected, our study shows that chronic treatment of U937 cells with n –3 PUFA (20:5) depressed PC and PE synthesis, and 18:3 and 20:4 also caused inhibition of PE synthesis. 相似文献

[3H]Palmitic acid and [14C]arachidonic acid were injected together into the cerebral ventricle of 4-month and 24-month-old rats. At different time intervals from the injection, the distribution of these fatty acids in the lipids from different brain areas was examined. The fatty acids were rapidly incorporated into the lipids through different mechanisms. The time-specific activity relationship indicate that the utilization of the fatty acid differs according to the different areas and aging decreases the utilization of both the fatty acids. The decline of arachidonic acid incorporation into phospholipids is particularly evident, indicating that aging affects mainly the utilization of polyunsaturated fatty acids. 相似文献

The methylation steps in the biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine by castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) endosperm have been studied by pulse-chase labeling. Endosperm halves were incubated with [methyl-14C]S-adenosyl-l-methionine, [2-14C]ethanolamine, [14C]ethanolamine phosphate, or [14C]serine phosphate. The kinetics of appearance were followed in the free, phospho-, and phosphatidyl-bases. The initial methylation utilized ethanolamine as a substrate to form methylethanolamine, which was then converted to dimethylethanolamine, choline, and phosphomethylethanolamine. Subsequent methylations occurred at the phospho-base and, to a lesser extent, the phosphatidyl-base levels, after which the radioactivity either remained constant or decreased in these compounds and accumulated in phosphatidylcholine. Although the precursors tested did support the synthesis of choline, the kinetics of the labeling make them unlikely to be the major sources of free choline to be utilized for the nucleotide pathway. A model with two pools of choline is proposed, and the implications of these results for the pathways leading to phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis are discussed. 相似文献

1-O-[1'-14C]Hexadecyl ethanediol was administered intracerebrally to myelinating rat brain, and incorporation of radioactivity into brain lipids was followed over a 48-h period: (1) O-Hexadecyl ethanediol was metabolized primarily through oxidative ether bond cleavage, and much of the label was recovered in phospholipid acyl groups. (2) Substantial amounts of radioactivity were also found in choline and ethanolamine phospholipids having an O-hexadecyloxyethyl glycerol backbone. This means that alkyl ethanediol was used in glycerol ether biosynthesis as are long-chain primary alcohols. (3) Acidic hydrolysis of the ethanolamine glycerophosphatide fraction yielded also labeled hexadecanol which may indicate desaturation of 1-O-hexadecyloxyethyl 2-acyl glycerophosphoryl ethanolamine to the plasmalogen analogue. (4) Small amounts of the substrate were oxidized to O-hexadecyl glycolic acid and incorporated into the phospholipids. The substrate did not serve as precursor of O-hexadecyl ethanediol phosphorylcholine or phosphorylethanolamine in the brain. 相似文献

The lipids of Caldariella acidophila, an extreme thermophile member of the new archaebacteria group, are macrocyclic tetraethers. They are made up of two glycerol molecules (or one glycerol and one nonitol) bridged through ether linkages by two C4016,16′-biphytanyl chains. To elucidate the biosynthesis of the glycerol moiety of these tetraethers and the mechanism of glycerol ether assembly, labelled [U-14C, 1(3)-3H]glycerol and [U-14C, 2-3H]glycerol, were fed to C. acidophila. Both precursors were selectively incorporated with high efficiency, and without any change in the 3H/14C ratio, in the glycerol moiety of tetraethers. These results suggest that the ether forming step in the biosynthesis of tetraether lipids of C. acidophila, occurs without any loss of hydrogen from any of the glycerol carbons which in turn could be directly alkylated by geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate. The incorporation of radioactivity in the isoprenoid chains and into nonitol is also analysed. 相似文献

We examined the effect of etomoxir treatment on de novo cardiolipin (CL) biosynthesis in H9c2 cardiac myoblast cells. Etomoxir treatment did not affect the activities of the CL biosynthetic and remodeling enzymes but caused a reduction in [1-14C]palmitic acid or [1-14C]oleic acid incorporation into CL. The mechanism was a decrease in fatty acid flux through the de novo pathway of CL biosynthesis via a redirection of lipid synthesis toward 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol utilizing reactions mediated by a 35% increase (P < 0.05) in membrane phosphatidate phosphohydrolase activity. In contrast, etomoxir treatment increased [1,3-3H]glycerol incorporation into CL. The mechanism was a 33% increase (P < 0.05) in glycerol kinase activity, which produced an increased glycerol flux through the de novo pathway of CL biosynthesis. Etomoxir treatment inhibited 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol acyltransferase activity by 81% (P < 0.05), thereby channeling both glycerol and fatty acid away from 1,2,3-triacyl-sn-glycerol utilization toward phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis. In contrast, etomoxir inhibited myo-[3H]inositol incorporation into phosphatidylinositol and the mechanism was an inhibition in inositol uptake. Etomoxir did not affect [3H]serine uptake but resulted in an increased formation of phosphatidylethanolamine derived from phosphatidylserine. The results indicate that etomoxir treatment has diverse effects on de novo glycerolipid biosynthesis from various metabolic precursors. In addition, etomoxir mediates a distinct and differential metabolic channeling of glycerol and fatty acid precursors into CL. 相似文献

Abstract— Partially purified myelin from the brains of 17-day-old rats was separated into 4 subfractions on a three-step sucrose gradient by virtue of heterogeneity in density and particle size. Precursor-product relationships between different membrane fractions were investigated by determining the specific radioactivity of individual lipids in each subcellular fraction 15 min after intracranial injection of an appropriate precursor. Rats were injected with [2-3H]glycerol. myelin subfractions prepared, and individual lipids separated by TLC. For choline and ethanolamine phospholipids, specific radioactivity was highest in the densest fraction (D), intermediate in the next densest fraction (C), and lowest in the lighter fractions (B and A). Similar results were observed for cerebroside and sulphatide when [3H]galactose was the precursor. These data are consistent with (but do not prove) a precursor-product relationship for individual lipids from the densest to the lightest subfraction. Another experimental design involving time staggered injections of [3H] and [14C] precursors was developed which enables a more definitive result with regard to precursor-product relationships to be obtained. A precursor-product relationship between a given lipid in a dense myelin membrane fraction, and the same lipid in a lighter subfraction, would be indicated by a change in isotope ratio. If there is no precursor-product relationship. Ihe isotope ratio should be constant. Such experiments were done with [3H] and [14C]glycerol. The data indicated that phosphatidyl ethanolamine and its plasmalogen analog were added first to the densest subfraction and then in turn to the lighter subfractions. In contrast, phosphatidyl choline and its plasmalogen analog were added “simultaneously” (i.e. with delays of much less than 15min) to each of the subfractions. Similar experiments with [3H] and [14C]galactose showed that cerebroside, sulphatide and galactosyl diglyceride also entered the subfractions simultaneously rather than in sequential order. Thus the assembly of the myelin sheath involves an obligate order of addition of certain lipids. while other lipids are probably added in a random order. 相似文献

[1-14C]-Acetate incorporation into total and polar lipids was studied in the growing pollen tubes of Crotalaria juncea. Ungerminated pollen had phosphatidyl inositol, phosphatidyl serine, phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl glycerol, monogalactosyl diglyceride, digalactosyl diglyceride, sulpholipid and steryl glycosides. In the growing pollen tubes considerable [1-14C]-acetate incorporation was observed into the individual polar lipids. The exogenous carbon source significantly influenced lipid biosynthesis. Boric acid (20mg/l.) promoted both pollen tube growth and acetate incorporation into phospholipids. In comparison to 5′-adenosine monophosphate, cyclic-3′,5′-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) promoted tube growth and also enhanced phospho-and glycolipid biosynthesis. The regulation of membrane component biosynthesis by cAMP is suggested. 相似文献

TURNOVER OF PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINE IN MICROSOMES AND MYELIN IN BRAINS OF YOUNG AND ADULT RATS 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
We have tested the hypothesis that the turnover of phosphatidylcholine in subcellular fractions of rat brain is a function of the age at which this lipid is deposited. Rats, 60 days of age, were injected intracranially with [2-3H]glycerol and either [methyl-14C]choline (to label the base moiety) or [U-14C]glucose (to label acyl moieties). Littermates were killed up to 90 days after injection and brain microsomes and myelin isolated. Lipids were extracted and the phosphatidylcholine was isolated by 2-dimensional TLC and hydrolyzed to its constituent moieties. The 3H in the glycerol backbone and 14C in the choline or acyl residues was quantitated. The microsomal and myelin 3H/14C ratios decreased with time with either set of precursors, indicating that labeled choline and acyl moieties were reutilized more efficiently than the glycerol backbone. The various precursors exhibited first order decay curves with half-lives for the glycerol backbone of 6 and 11 days for the microsomal and myelin fractions respectively. These results contrast with those previously obtained with identical experimental procedures when 17-day-old animals were injected. In that study, although much of the phosphatidylcholine turned over rapidly as for the older animals, by 2 weeks after injection most of the remaining phosphatidylcholine was turning over more slowly with a half-life of 13 and 25 days for microsomes and myelin respectively (Miller et al., 1977). The base and acyl moieties also had a corresponding shorter half-life in older animals relative to the slow turnover phase in younger rats. 相似文献
