Abstract:
Summary Incorporation of fatty acids into phospholipids has been investigated using samples of rat live tissue homogenate, Krebs-Ringer-phosphate buffer (pH = 7A) containing 0.3% albumin, farry acid mixture and glycerol. The addition of sepiapterin, 7,8-dihydrobiopterin and 5.6.7.8-tetrahydrobiopterin (5 and 30 pmol g wet weight) to incubation medium induced a decrease of saturated (stearic acid) and an increase of polyunsaturated (arachidonic acid) fatty acids incorporation into phospholipids. Cholesterol content decreased, but phospholiplid content did not change in samples containing sepiapterin, 7,8-dihydrobiopterin and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin. No changes of fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids as well as of the content of cholesterol and phospholipids were observed in samples after the addition of xanthopterin (4 and 20 nmol/g wet weight) to incubation medium for phospholipid biosynthesis in vitro. The observations made by incubation with 7,8-dihydrobiopterin, 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin and sepiapterin where in opposite to those made earlier employing neopterin and using the same incubation procedure.

Abstract:
Summary Incorporation of fatty acids into phospholipids has been investigated using samples of rat liver tissue homogenate, Krebs-Ringer-phosphate buffer (pH = 7.4) containing 0.3% albumin, fatty acid mixture and glyceroL The addition of L-kynurenine (4 nmol/g wet weight), D-eryhro-neopterin (5 and 30 pmol/g wet weight) and noradrenaline (4 nmol/g wet weight) to incubation medium induced an increase of saturated (palmitic acid) and decrease of poly-unsaturated (linoleic and arachidonic acid) fatty acids incorporation into phospholipids. The increase of saturated fatty acids incorporation into phospholipids was more pronounced after addition of neopterin and noradrenaline to the incubation medium while the decrease of linoleic and arachidonic acid synthesis was stimulated most with kynurenine. Moreover, kynurenine stimulated whereas neopterin depressed the oleic acid incorporation into phospholipids. These changes of fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids were followed by increase of cholesterol content in samples containing kynurenine, neopterin or noradrenalin. In contrast, phospholipid content decreased in samples containing kynurenine or noradrenalin, hut was not altered by supplementation of neopterin. Since the addition of kynurenine and neopterin to incubation medium for isolated fog heart resulted in an increased noradrenaline and decreased pyridoxal-5-phosphate content in the tissue, we also added pyridoxal-5-phosphate (4 nmol/g wet weight) to incubation medium for phospholipid biosynthesis. No change of the fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids as welI as the content of phospholipids and cholesterol in samples was observed.

Abstract:
The content and fatty acyl composition of phospholipids were examined in pressure-overload hypertrophied hearts. Cardiac hypertrophy was induced in rats by abdominal aortic constriction. Twenty-one days postconstriction the content of myocardial phosphatidylcholine (PC), sphingomyelin, and phosphatidylinositol (PI) was significantly elevated by 10, 10, and 20%, respectively. The essential fatty acid, linoleic acid, was markedly reduced in PC, phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), PI, and cardiolipin (CL) of hypertrophied hearts. The associated changes in fatty acyl composition were specific for the individual phospholipid class as evidenced by a significant elevation of palmitic acid in PC, docosahexaenoic acid in PE and oleic acid in CL. Alterations in fatty acyl composition of phospholipids were associated with no change in the composition of cardiac triglycerides, cardiac free fatty acids or serum lipids. The fatty acyl composition of phospholipids was also altered in pressure-overload hypertrophied hearts of cats, as evidenced by a reduction of linoleic acid and an elevation of arachidonic acid in total phospholipids. These findings demonstrate that changes in phospholipid metabolism occur in the pressure-overloaded mammalian heart. Such alterations may contribute to altered membrane function in the hypertrophied myocardium.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT plsX (acyl-acyl carrier protein [ACP]:phosphate acyltransferase), plsY (yneS) (acyl-phosphate:glycerol-phosphate acyltransferase), and plsC (yhdO) (acyl-ACP:1-acylglycerol-phosphate acyltransferase) function in phosphatidic acid formation, the precursor to membrane phospholipids. The physiological functions of these genes was inferred from their in vitro biochemical activities, and this study investigated their roles in gram-positive phospholipid metabolism through the analysis of conditional knockout strains in the Bacillus subtilis model system. The depletion of PlsX led to the cessation of both fatty acid synthesis and phospholipid synthesis. The inactivation of PlsY also blocked phospholipid synthesis, but fatty acid formation continued due to the appearance of acylphosphate intermediates and fatty acids arising from their hydrolysis. Phospholipid synthesis ceased following PlsC depletion, but fatty acid synthesis continued at a high rate, leading to the accumulation of fatty acids arising from the dephosphorylation of 1-acylglycerol-3-P followed by the deacylation of monoacylglycerol. Analysis of glycerol 3-P acylation in B. subtilis membranes showed that PlsY was an acylphosphate-specific acyltransferase, whereas PlsC used only acyl-ACP as an acyl donor. PlsX was found in the soluble fraction of disrupted cells but was associated with the cell membrane in intact organisms. These data establish that PlsX is a key enzyme that coordinates the production of fatty acids and membrane phospholipids in B. subtilis.

Abstract:
The fatty acid compositions of the neutral lipid and phospholipid fractions of rat lymph node lymphocytes were characterized. Stimulation of rat lymphocytes with the T-cell mitogen concanavalin A resulted in significant changes in the fatty acid composition of both neutral lipids and phospholipids (a decrease in the proportions of stearic, linoleic and arachidonic acids and an increase in the proportion of oleic acid). Membrane fluidity was measured using nitroxide spin-label e.s.r., and increased during culture with concanavalin A. Culturing the lymphocytes in the absence of mitogen did not affect fatty acid composition or membrane fluidity. The uptake and fate of palmitic, oleic, linoleic and arachidonic acids were studied in detail; there was a time-dependent incorporation of each fatty acid into all lipid classes but each fatty acid had a characteristic fate. Palmitic and arachidonic acids were incorporated principally into phospholipids whereas oleic and linoleic acids were incorporated in similar proportions into phospholipids and triacylglycerols. Oleic acid was incorporated mainly into phosphatidylcholine, palmitic and linoleic acids were incorporated equally into phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine, and arachidonic acid was incorporated mainly into phosphatidylethanolamine. Supplementation of the culture medium with particular fatty acids (myristic, palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic, alpha-linolenic, arachidonic, eicosapentaenoic or docosahexaenoic acid) led to enrichment of that fatty acid in both neutral lipids and phospholipids. This generated lymphocytes with phospholipids differing in saturated/unsaturated fatty acid ratio, degree of polyunsaturation, index of unsaturation and n - 6/n - 3 ratio. This method allowed the introduction into lymphocyte phospholipids of fatty acids not normally present (e.g. alpha-linolenic) or usually present in low proportions (eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic). These three n - 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids replaced arachidonic acid in lymphocyte phospholipids. Fatty acid incorporation led to an alteration in lymphocyte membrane fluidity: palmitic and stearic acids decreased fluidity whereas the unsaturated fatty acids increased fluidity. It is proposed that the changes in lymphocyte phospholipid fatty acid composition and membrane fluidity brought about by culture in the presence of polyunsaturated fatty acids are responsible for the inhibition of lymphocyte functions caused by these fatty acids.

Abstract Incorporation of fatty acids into phospholipids has been investigated using samples of rat liver tissue homogenate, Krebs-Ringer-phosphate buffer (pH=7.4) containing 0.3% albumin, fatty acid mixture and glycerol. The addition of anthranilic acid (2.2 and 4 nmol/g wet weight), kynurenic acid (4 and 40 nmol/ g wet weight), xanthurenic acid (4 and 40 nmol/g wet weight), picolinic acid (0.2 and 2 nmol/g wet weight) induced an increase of saturated and a decrease of polyunsaturated fatty acids incorporation into phospholipids as well as an eleyation of choksterol concentration in samples used for phospholipid biosynthesis in vitro. These changes were similar to those observed after addition of kynurenine and neopterin to the same test system, An inverse relationship has been observed after addition of nicotinic acid to samples used for phospholipid biosynthesis in vitro. Nicrotinic acid induced .1 decrease of saturated and an increase of unsaturated fatty acids incorporation into phospholipids as well as decrease of cholesterol concentration in samples, These changes were similar to those observed after addition of 3-hydroxykynurenine, 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid, quinolinic, acid, 5,6],8-tetrahydrobiopterin and its precursors to the same test system used rex phospholipid biosynthesis in vitro. In parallel anthranilic acid, kynurenic acid, xanthurenic acid and picolinic acid decrease while nicotinic acid increases membrane fluidity in the studied concentrations.

Abstract:
Bio-based production of fatty acids and fatty acid-derived products can enable sustainable substitution of petroleum-derived fuels and chemicals. However, developing new microbial cell factories for producing high levels of fatty acids requires extensive engineering of lipid metabolism, a complex and tightly regulated metabolic network. Here we generated a Saccharomyces cerevisiae platform strain with a simplified lipid metabolism network with high-level production of free fatty acids (FFAs) due to redirected fatty acid metabolism and reduced feedback regulation. Deletion of the main fatty acid activation genes (the first step in β-oxidation), main storage lipid formation genes, and phosphatidate phosphatase genes resulted in a constrained lipid metabolic network in which fatty acid flux was directed to a large extent toward phospholipids. This resulted in simultaneous increases of phospholipids by up to 2.8-fold and of FFAs by up to 40-fold compared with wild-type levels. Further deletion of phospholipase genes PLB1 and PLB2 resulted in a 46% decrease in FFA levels and 105% increase in phospholipid levels, suggesting that phospholipid hydrolysis plays an important role in FFA production when phospholipid levels are increased. The multiple deletion mutant generated allowed for a study of fatty acid dynamics in lipid metabolism and represents a platform strain with interesting properties that provide insight into the future development of lipid-related cell factories.

Abstract:
Previous studies using phospholipid mixed vesicles have demonstrated that several types of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzymes exhibit different selectivity for fatty acids at the sn-2 position, for the type of chemical bond at the sn-1 position or for the phosphobase moiety at the sn-3 position of phospholipids. In the present study, we have utilized natural mammalian membranes from U937 monocytes to determine whether two purified 14 kDa PLA2 isoenzymes (Type I, Type II) and a partially purified 110 kDa PLA2 exhibit substrate selectivity for certain fatty acids or phospholipids. In these studies, arachidonic acid (AA) release from membranes was measured under conditions where the remodelling of AA mediated by CoA-independent transacylase (CoA-IT) activity has been eliminated. In agreement with the mixed-vesicle models, AA was the major unsaturated fatty acid hydrolysed from membranes by the 110 kDa PLA2, suggesting that this PLA2 is selective in releasing AA from natural membranes. By contrast, Type I and Type II PLA2s were less selective in releasing AA from phospholipids and released a variety of unsaturated fatty acids at molar ratios that were proportional to the ratios of these fatty acids in U937 microsomal membranes. Examination of AA release from phospholipid classes indicated that all three enzymes released AA from the major AA-containing phospholipid classes (phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, and phosphatidylinositol) of U937 membranes. The 110 kDa PLA2 released AA from phospholipid subclasses in ratios that were proportional to the AA content within phospholipid classes and subclasses of U937 membranes. These data suggested that the 110 kDa PLA2 shows no preference either for the sn-1 linkage or for the sn-3 phosphobase moiety of phospholipids. By contrast, Type I and Type II PLA2s preferentially released AA from ethanolamine-containing phospholipids and appeared to prefer the 1-acyl-linked subclass. Taken together, these data indicate that the 110 kDa PLA2 selectively releases AA from U937 membranes, whereas Type I and Type II PLA2 release a variety of unsaturated fatty acids. Furthermore, the 110 kDa PLA2 releases the same molar ratios of AA from all major phospholipid subclasses, whereas Type I and Type II PLA2s show some specificity for phosphatidylethanolamine when these enzymes are incubated with a complex mammalian membrane substrate.

Abstract:
Previous estimates have placed the energy requirements of total phospholipid metabolism in mammalian brain at 2% or less of total ATP consumption. This low estimate was consistent with the very long half-lives (up to days) reported for fatty acids esterified within phospholipids. However, using an approach featuring analysis of brain acyl-CoA, which takes into account dilution of the precursor acyl-CoA pool by recycling of fatty acids, we reported that half-lives of fatty acids in phospholipids are some 100 times shorter (min–h) than previously thought. Based on these new estimates of short half-lives, palmitic acid and arachidonic acid were used as prototype fatty acids to calculate energy consumption by fatty acid recycling at the sn-1 and sn-2 positions of brain phospholipids. We calculated that the energy requirements for reacylation of fatty acids into lysophospholipids are 5% of net brain ATP consumption. We also calculated ATP requirements for maintaining asymmetry of the aminophospholipids, phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine across brain membrane bilayers. This asymmetry is maintained by a translocase at a stoichiometry of 1 mol of ATP per mol of phospholipid transferred in either direction across the membrane. The energy cost of maintaining membrane bilayer asymmetry of aminophospholipids at steady-state was calculated to be 8% of total ATP consumed. Taken together, deacylation–reacylation and maintenance of membrane asymmetry of phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine require about 13% of ATP consumed by brain as a whole. This is a lower limit for energy consumption by processes involving phospholipids, as other processes, including phosphorylation of polyphosphoinositides and de novo phospholipid biosynthesis, were not considered.

Abstract:
Abstract Impairment of lipid metabolism due to excess metabolite accumulation induced by pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P-5-P)-deficiency and/or stimulated immune system has been studied and interpreted. Decreased amounts of phospholipids as well as deviations in phospholipid classes and fatty acid composition of phospholipids have been demonstrated due to kynurenine accumulation in the blood of P-5-P-deficient cardiovascular patients and white rats as well as in cardiovascular patients with activated immune system identified by an increased neopterin concentration in the blood (dilated cardiomyopathy). The addition of P-5-P to the incubation medium for phospholipid biosynthesis in vitro did not change fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids, whereas it normalised fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids in liver homogenates received from P-5-P-deficient rats: The addition of kynurenine, neopterin and noradrenalin (accumulated m isolated heart tissue after addition of kynurenine and neopterin to incubation medium for isolated heart) to incubation medium for phospholipid biosynthesis in vitro induced an increase of saturated and a decrease of polyunsaturated fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids. These changes in fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids were followed by increased cholesterol concentrations in samples and an increased cholesterol/phospholipid ratio. Our results suggest that these changes in lipids are characteristic for decreased membrane fluidity, depressed cell cycle and lowered possibility of phospholipids to keep cholesterol in solution. P-5-P-deficiency is also accompanied with excess accumulation of homocysteine in the blood. The addition of L-homocysteine to the incubation medium for phospholipid biosynthesis in vitro was followed by inverse changes in fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids when compared with kynurenine, neopterin and noradrenalin. L-homocysteine induced a decrease of saturated and an increase of polyunsaturated fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids. The cholesterol concentration decreased in samples and the cholesterol/ phospholipid ratio decreased, too . These findings suggest that changes in lipids induced by L-homocysteine are characteristic for increased membrane fluidity and stimulated cell cycle. In this study, we have observed a similar effect to L-homocysteine effect when L-homocysteine, L-tryptophan and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin were added to the incubation medium for phospholipid biosynthesis in vitro. The comparison of our results with data from the literature allows to suggest that excess metabolite accumulation due to activated formation and inactivated catabolism of it plays a significant role in quantitative and qualitative changes of lipids, especially phospholipids, and therefore participates in the regulation of membrane fluidity, cell cycle of normal and malignant cells as well as in keeping cholesterol in the state of solution.

Abstract:
Pre-treatment with polyunsaturated fatty acids or bioactive lipid mediators has been shown to reduce neuronal injury in rodent models of focal ischaemia, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this neuroprotection are unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether systemic administration of alpha linolenic acid (ALA) leads to changes in the profile of mouse brain phospholipid and bioactive lipid mediators in both mouse brain and plasma within the previously determined neuroprotection time window. Mass spectrometry (MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) allowed us to detect and identify 47 phospholipids in mouse cerebral cortex, including several phospholipid species not previously reported in brain lipidomic studies. These included a phosphatidylethanolamine species with m/z 720 that has been associated with retinal stem cells. No widespread changes in cerebral cortex phospholipid composition were observed following intravenous ALA. Several significant changes in lipid mediators (P<0.05 with two-way ANOVA and post hoc Dunnett's t test) were detected in ALA-treated animals compared to untreated and vehicle-injected animals. Many of the affected lipid mediators are ligands for prostanoid receptors which have been demonstrated to play a role in the development of brain injury following cerebral ischaemia, implying that changes in bioactive lipid mediators or modulation of prostanoid receptors may occur following ALA pre-treatment in mice. This study illustrates the potential of advanced lipidomic analysis as a novel tool for neurochemists.

Full text
Abstract:
Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation is the chief site of eukaryotic energy transduction, accounting for up to 90% of cellular oxygen consumption. During the process, protons pumped out across the mitochondrial inner membrane return down their electrochemical gradient to synthesise ATP, a universal energy intermediate. Protons may also passively leak back in, by-passing ATP synthesis. This proton leak is an important physiological process, accounting for up to 25-30% of the standard metabolic rate of an animal such as the rat. Three major determinants of metabolic rate - body mass, thyroid hormones, and phylogeny, all correlate with mitochondiral proton leak, and also with mitochondrial phospholipid fatty acid composition. It is hypothesised that the mitochondrial inner membrane's phospholipid fatty acid composition may play a role in determining its proton permeability, though the mechanism of this is unknown. In the current investigation, novel and modified methods were used to isolate mitochondiral inner membrane phospholipids from 8 species of animal of different metabolic rate, and reconstitute them into liposomes without the use of detergents. The fatty acid composition and proton permeability of these liposomes was determined. The results suggest that only 5% of mitochondrial proton leak is through the bulk phospholipid bilayer portion of the inner membrane. Further, they indicate that the fatty acid composition of a pure phospholipid bilayer does not affect its proton permeability. Thus, if phospholipid fatty acid composition does play a role in determining the proton permeability of the mitochondrial inner membrane, any effects must be mediated through the other components of the inner membrane, such as the proteins. The results have implications for the basis of standard metabolic rate, and also for the biophysical understanding of proton leak mechanisms in pure phospholipid bilayers.

Abstract:
This study was designed to determine the distribution of fatty acids and cholesterol in total tumor and mammary tissues. Fatty acid profiles of phospholipid fractions from tumors and mammary glands were also determined. Fatty acids and cholesterols were analyzed by gas liquid chromatography. Methodology was developed for phospholipid separation by high performance liquid chromatography.Tumors derived from mammary glands in Strain A/ST mice were found to contain two to three times the amount of cholesterol compared to normal mammary glands. Mammary glands from safflower fed mice contained significantly higher percentages of linoleic acid. Linoleic acid content in stearicacid (SA-1) fed mice was sharply reduced. linoleic acid in mammary glands of animals fed a high fat Stearic acid (SA-4) , corn oil and stock diet fed animals displayed similar fatty acid profiles. Fatty acid analysis of tumors excised from mice fed the experimental diets showed similar patterns in comparison to normal mammary glands. The similar distributions were in the 18 carbon fatty acids. Distributions of phospholipid fatty acids in tumors and mammary glands were similar. Mammary gland phospholipids displayed increased percentages of short chain (14 carbons and under) fatty acids. Results of these studies demonstrate an increased availability of diet rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Abstract:
This work expands the knowledge on phospholipid metabolism in the kinetoplastid parasites: T. brucei, T. cruzi, Leishmania spp. that cause neglected tropical diseases and the related non-human pathogenic Crithidia fasiculata. As a close relative of parasitic kinetoplasts, specifically Leishmania, it is hypothesised that Crithidia fasiculata possesses a similar lipid biosynthetic capability and therefore represent an attractive model organism. Database mining the Crithidia genome revealed the ability to biosynthesise all of the main phospholipid species. Utilising various lipidomic techniques, a high level of an ω-6 18:3 fatty acid was observed, alongside an uncommon Δ19:0 fatty acid that was later identified to be exclusive attributed to PE species. Sphingolipid metabolism was shown to resemble that of Leishmania and T. cruzi, given the exclusive production of inositol-phosphoceramide species and no sphingomyelin species being observed. Using labelled precursors, Crithidia were seen to uptake and incorporate extracellular inositol into both phosphatidylinositol and inositol-phosphoceramide species. Crithidia were also shown to utilise both the Kennedy pathway and methylation of phosphatidylethanolamine to form phosphatidylcholine. The phospholipidome of T. cruzi revealed several phosphatidylserine species for the first time, suggesting a functional phosphatidylserine synthase. Current knowledge of T.cruzi sphingolipid biosynthesis was also confirmed as only inositol xxxi phosphoceramide species were observed. The identification and subsequent characterisation of novel phosphonolipid species are reported for the first time. Utilising lipidomic methodologies and labelled precursors, the relative contribution of the intracellular inositol pools within bloodstream and procyclic T. brucei towards PI biosynthesis was examined. This highlighted that the synthesis/turnover rates for specific phosphatidylinositol and inositol-phosphoceramide species are unequal. Efforts to optimise media conditions highlighted that under reduced levels of serum/glucose/inositol, bloodstream T. brucei unexpectedly adjusts its inositol metabolism. The procyclic parasite exemplifies this fact, as under inositol/glucose deficient media conditions they appear to have adapted to utilising glucogenesis and inositol de-novo synthesis. This work highlights that these parasites are rapidly dividing, their unique features of lipid metabolism may be exploitable for drug discovery purposes.

Tandis qu'une déficience en DHA a été montrée être liée à l'émergence de maladies cérébrales (i.e. maladie d'Alzheimer ou maladie de Parkinson), des études ont également montré qu'un apport alimentaire en AGPI oméga-3 pouvait empêcher ou atténuer les perturbations neurologiques liées au vieillissement ou aux maladies neurodégénératives. Il est alors primordial de transporter efficacement le DHA au cerveau. Le laboratoire français a synthétisé auparavant une forme stabilisée de la lysophosphatidylcholine-DHA, qui est le vecteur principal d'apport de DHA au cerveau, de structure 1-acétyl,2-docosahexaénoyl-glycérophosphocholine, brevetée et nommée AceDoPC®. L'injection d'AceDoPC ou de DHA après un accident vasculaire cérébral ischémique provoqué expérimentalement a montré que ces deux molécules étaient neuroprotectrices. Ces effets sont supposés être dus en partie à la conversion du DHA en métabolites oxygénés. Notre étude vise à examiner les effets du DHA et de ses métabolites dérivés, estérifiés ou non dans des phospholipides structurés sur un modèle de neurogenèse in vitro en conditions physiologiques ou pathologiques. Le premier objectif de ce travail a été de synthétiser le phospholipide structuré contenant du DHA, l’AceDoPC®, la protectine DX (métabolite oxygéné du DHA), et un nouveau phospholipide structuré contenant la protectine: 1-acétyl,2-protectine DX-glycérophosphocholine (AceDoxyPC). Le second objectif était d’étudier les effets du DHA, de l'AceDoPC et de la PDX sur la neurogenèse en utilisant un modèle in vitro de neurogenèse, constitué de cultures de cellules souches progénitrices neurales (NSPCs) dérivées de cerveaux de souris adultes, dans des conditions physiologiques ou pathologiques (ischémiques ici). Enfin, le troisième objectif de cette thèse a été d'identifier les mécanismes impliqués dans la réponse des cellules aux conditions ischémiques. La synthèse du phospholipide structuré AceDoxyPC a été réalisée avec succès par une double lipoxygénation enzymatique de l'AceDoPC, et l'identification du produit a été possible grâce à l'utilisation de techniques avancées de chromatographie liquide couplée à la spectrométrie de masse (LC/ESI/MS). De futures études sur ce transporteur de molécule neuroprotectrice potentielle doivent être réalisées prochainement. Les cellules incubées en présence d’AceDoPC présentent une augmentation de neurogenèse comparativement à celles cultivées avec addition de DHA non estérifié ou du véhicule contrôle, notamment sous conditions pathologiques. Les études préliminaires des mécanismes potentiellement impliqués dans la neuroprotection indiquent que les effets neuroprotecteurs et régénératifs de l'AceDoPC pourraient être en partie dus à des effets anti-oxidants
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3) is an essential omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA). It is specifically enriched in the brain and the retina and it is required for visual acuity, proper brain development and cerebral functions. While DHA deficiency in the brain was shown to be linked to the emergence of cerebral diseases (i.e. Alzheimer’s disease or Parkinson’s disease), studies showed that a dietary intake of omega-3 PUFA could prevent or attenuate neurologic disturbances linked with ageing or neurodegenerative diseases. In this context, it is primary to deliver DHA efficiently to the brain. Targeting the brain with DHA might offer great promise in developing new therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases. The French host laboratory previously synthesized a stabilized form of lysophosphatidylcholine-DHA, which is main vector of DHA transportation to the brain, of structure 1-acetyl,2-docoshexaenoyl-glycerophosphocholine, patented and named AceDoPC®. Injection of AceDoPC or DHA after experimental ischemic stroke showed that both molecules also had neuroprotective effects. These potential neuroprotective effects are expected to be due, in part, to DHA conversion into oxygenated metabolites. This study aims to investigate the beneficial effects of DHA and its derived metabolites either unesterified or esterified within structured phospholipids on a model of neurogenesis in vitro under physiological or pathological conditions. The first objective of this work was then to synthesize the DHA-containing structured phospholipid AceDoPC®, DHA oxygenated derivative protectin DX (PDX) and a novel structured phospholipid of protectin: 1-acetyl,2-protectinDX-glycerophosphocholine (AceDoxyPC). The second objective was to investigate the effects of DHA, AceDoPC and PDX on neurogenesis using an in vitro model of neurogenesis, namely cultures of neural stem progenitor cells (NSPCs) derived from the adult mouse brain under physiological or pathological conditions (ischemic conditions). Following this, the third objective of this work was to identify the mechanisms involved in such response to stress induced under pathological conditions. Synthesis of the novel structured phospholipid AceDoxyPC was successfully performed by double enzymatic lipoxygenation of AceDoPC and identification of the product was possible using advanced techniques of liquid chromatography (LC)/electrospray ionization (/ESI)/mass spectrometry (/MS). Future studies on this potential neuroprotective molecule transporter are to be investigated in the near future. Neurogenesis study of cell cultures with AceDoPC showed enhanced neurogenesis compared to addition of unesterified DHA or vehicle control, especially under pathological conditions. Preliminary studies of the potential mechanisms involved in neuroprotection hinted that AceDoPC neuroprotective and regenerative effects might be due in part to its anti-oxidative effects

Abstract:
Platelets from patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (IIa HLP), a condition associated with high prevalence of atherosclerosis and of its thrombotic complications, are known to be hyperresponsive to aggregating stimuli and to synthesize increased amounts of thromboxane A2. In order to search if these functional alterations can depend on a different platelet lipid composition, we studied 12 young patients ( aged 20 to 34 years) affected by Ila HLP and 12 suitable controls with similar dietary habits. Lipids were extracted from washed platelets with a chloroform/methanol (2/1) mixture. After silicic acid chromatography and thin-layer chromatography different lipid fractions were eluted and fatty acid methylesters were prepared by acid transmethanolysis. The esters were extracted with hexane and analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography. Different fatty acids were identified on the basis of retention time with respect to standard methylester mixtures and silver nitrate thin-layer chromatography. Cholesterol and lipid phosphorus were assayed by colorimetric methods. Both cholesterol and phospholipid content of platelets were higher in patients than in controls with a significant increase of cholesterol/ phospholipid molar ratio (p<0.05). The percentage content of the phospholipid fractions was not different from that of controls. On the contrary the proportion of saturated fatty acids esterified in the different phospholipid fractions was significantly increased (minimum p<0.05). In addition thromboxane A2 production by platelets from patients with Ila HLP was higher than in controls (<0.001). Our results indicate that lipid composition of platelets from patients with Ila HLP is altered and may be responsible for the enhanced platelet activity described in these patients.

Abstract:
We have previously shown that the main source of arachidonate in thrombin-stimulated human platelets is 1-acyl-2-arachidonoyl (AA) glycerophosphocholine (GPC) and release of 3H-AA from this phospholipid also was correlated with increased 3H-AA in ether phospholipid. This ATP independent transfer of 3H-AA from 1,2 diacyl GPC to ether phospholipid (transacylation) also occurs in resting cells. Human platelets in 1/10 volume of plasma (ACD anticoagulant, pH 6.5) were radiolabelled with 3H-AA for 60 min at 37°C and then exogenous 3H-AA was removed by gel filtration into Tyrode's buffer, pH 7.4, 0.2% albumin. These radiolabelled cells were incubated in the absence of exogenous 3H-AA for four hours followed by Bligh and Dyer extraction and thin layer chromatography purification of phospholipids. 3H-AA in 1,2 diacyl GPC was found to decrease by over 20% and increase substantially in 1-0-alkyl-2-acyl GPC and 1-0-alk-1'-enyl-2-acyl glycerophospho ethanolamine (GPE), In this same time interval the mass of AA released by thrombin (5 U/ml, 10 min, 37°C, no stirring)in the presence of BIT 775C and measured by GLC, stayed the same (30 nmoles/109 cells), however, the specific activity decreased. Using reverse phase HPLC to resolve diradylglycerobenzoate derivatives of phospholipids: acylation, deacylation, and transacylation were observed for individual AA-containing molecular species of phospholipid, including those with an unsaturated fatty acid at sn-1. In particular the radiolabellinq of the 1-unsaturate-2-arachidonoyl GPC correlated with the specific activity of the 3H-AA released by stimulation with thrombin. Furthermore, 1-arachidonoyl-2-3H-arachidonoyl GPC was completely deacylated while 50 % of its mass remained. This contrasted with 16:0, and 18:0-2-arachidonoyl GPC in which the specific activity remained the same before and after deacylation. We conclude that deacylation of AA-containing molecular species of 1,2 diacyl GPC in stimulated cells includes molecular species which are also a source of arachidonic acid for transacylation reactions.

Abstract:
The effect of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids on hemostasis has elicited much interest. We studied indians from the Orinoco river shore, whose main animal protein intake derives from river fishes with a high confceqt of 22:6n-3 (0.2g/100g)r We determined in 50 indians plasma phospholipid fatty acids (FApl) by gas/liq chromatography and bleeding time by Symplate I divice (BT), in 15 were analyzed platelet count, aggregation with collagen and ADP, platelet factor 3 availability (PF3), platelet phospolipid fatty acids (FApt) and plasma vWFAg.RA from human milk was also determined. Subjets from the city of Caracas served as control. Data on BT, FAlp and FApt are shown in table (X±SD).FA Composition of milk showed that indians have 3 times more 22: 6n-3 than controls. Platelet studies shewed normal number and morphology. Percent platelet aggregation with collagen (4ug/ml) was below 50% in 4 of indians, 2 of them with a BT within the control range. Maximum slope of aggregation with ADP (4uM) was diminished in 2 cases. Diference in PF3 was not significant, VWFAg range from 50 to 100% and control from 53 to 127%. In conclusion we have found a population that shows an increased plasma and platelet 22:6n-3 and a prolonged BT most likely of dietary origen. Mechanism by wich n-3 FA modifies BT needs fur ther investigation.

Abstract:
Twenty-one subjects with type Ila hyperlipoproteinemia, receiving dietary treatment were given Synvinolin (MK-733), a HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, 40 mg or Cholestyramin (Questran) 24 g daily for a period of 12 weeks.Serum lipids, platelet cholesterol, phospholipids and fatty acid composition and platelet function were measured before and after the intake of the two drugs.Both drugs reduced serum total cholesterol with approximately 50%. No significant changes were observed in platelet lipid concentrations or in the primary bleeding time. Collagen induced aggregation and thromboxane (TXA2) production were reduced, whereas thrombin induced aggregation and TXA2 production were unaffected. This study shows that both a cholesterol synthetase inhibitor and Cholestyramin reduce the total serum cholesterol concentration and also reduce platelet aggregation and thromboxane synthesis without changing the platelet cholesterol content or the cholesterol/phospholipid ratio. The effect on serum lipids and platelet function may indicate a beneficial effect of both drugs on arterial disease in patients with hypercholesterolemia.

Abstract:
In the coastal areas of Northern Norway the intake of fish is by tradition high whereas in the inland area it is low. We have examined the mortality of CHD in the period 1975-84 in a coastal community (C) and an inland community (I). In addition we have examined 30 healthy male subjects aged 30-year, selected by random in the two communities. The examination included a dietary survey based on registration and weighing of all dietary items for one week, blood pressure, serum lipids, primary bleeding time, platelet aggregation induced by collagen and fatty acid composition of platelet total phospholipids.The age-adjusted mortality of CHD was significantly higher for age groups 30-70 year in C whereas the opposite was found above 70 years of age. The mean intake of fish per day was 134 g (0.9 g eicosapentaenoic acid-EPA) in C and 53 g (0.25 g EPA) in I. Serum triglycerides was higher in C (p<0.05) whereas totalcholesterol was similar. The primary bleeding time was not different in the two areas. Significantly lower concentrations of collagen was needed to induce 30 and 60% aggregation in platelet rich plasma in C than in I. No significant differences in the content of eicosapentaenoicacid (EPA) was observed in platelet total phospholipid fatty acids. This study has not confirmed that a high intake of fish as a singledietary variant, is associated with a low mortality of CHD. The lack of changes in plasma lipids, platelet fatty acid composition between representative groups from the two populationsindicate that other factors mask the possible beneficial effects of a high fish diet. Furthermore, the daily intake of large amounts of lean fish give only a very moderate increase in dietary intake of EPA.
