Turnover of mitochondrial components of normal and essential fatty acid-deficient rats.
1. Essential fatty acid (EFA)-deficient and control rats were injected intraperitoneally with [(32)P]phosphate, l-[(35)S]methionine and [2-(14)C]acetate. The animals were killed at various time-intervals after injection and their liver mitochondria fractionated into soluble protein, insoluble protein, and lipid. 2. The (35)S was assayed in the protein fractions and (32)P and (14)C were assayed ...
متن کاملEffects of infusion of some prostaglandins in essential fatty acid-deficient and normal rats.
Infusion of 1 mg/kg per day of prostaglandin E(1) (PGE(1)) for 2 and 7 wk failed to correct the dermal signs of essential fatty acid (EFA) deficiency in rats despite the known conversion of EFA to certain prostaglandins. PGE(1) caused no significant changes in serum cholesterol, triglycerides, or phospholipids or in liver neutral lipids in EFA-deficient or normal rats. In normal rats epinephrin...
متن کاملThe influence of an essential fatty acid deficient-diet on the reproductive performance of female rats.
Several parameters of the reproductive function were studied in albino rats of the Wistar strain fed an essential fatty acid-deficient (EFAD) diet, a linoleic acid-sufficient (EFAS) diet or a commercial diet (CD). The frequency of irregular estrous cycles, with an increased incidence of prolonged diestrus, was significantly higher in EFAD and EFAS groups than in the CD group. There were no sign...
متن کاملIntestinal absorption of essential fatty acids under physiological and essential fatty acid-deficient conditions.
The adequate supply of essential fatty acids (EFA) to the body depends upon sufficient dietary intake and subsequent efficient intestinal absorption. Lipid malabsorption is not only a leading cause of EFA deficiency (EFAD), but also occurs secondarily to EFAD. Understanding the relationship between EFAD and lipid malabsorption may be helpful in the development and optimization of oral treatment...
متن کاملInhibition of sheep vesicular gland oxygenase by unsaturated fatty acids from skin of essential fatty acid deficient rats.
Unsaturated fatty acids present in the lipids of essential fatty acid (EFA)deficient rats were found to inhibit the oxygenase activity of sheep vesicular gland in an instantaneous, reversible manner. However, competitive inhibition by high levels of these acids cannot account fully for the reported loss of prostaglandin synthetic capacity of these EFA-deficient animals. A similar competitive in...
