چکیده

The effects of short chain fatty acids on a colon carcinoma cell line, LIM1215, have been studied. Of the four short chain fatty acids tested only butyrate at 1 mmol/l and 10 mmol/l and acetate at 10 mmol/l had significant effects on this cell line. The addition of butyrate to growth medium affected the growth rate and the production of alkaline phosphatase, dipeptidyl peptidase IV and carcinoembryonic antigen. Butyrate at a final concentration of 1 mmol/l increased the doubling time of the cells from 26 hours to 72 hours and decreased the cloning efficiency of the cells from 1.1% to 0.054%. Alkaline phosphatase concentrations increased rapidly in cells cultured in 1 mmol/l butyrate reaching peak levels after four days with alkaline phosphatase concentrations increasing more than six-fold. Levels of dipeptidyl peptidase IV and carcinoembryonic antigen were also increased after culture in butyrate containing medium. The number of alkaline phosphatase containing and dipeptidyl peptidase IV containing cells increased markedly in butyrate containing cultures. In contrast the number of mucus containing cells decreased in cultures grown in medium containing butyrate. This differentiating effect of butyrate on colon carcinoma cells may be relevant to the presence of butyrate in the colonic contents and the relationship between short chain fatty acids and fibre intake.

Interleukin-8 stimulates the migration of human colonic epithelial cells in vitro.

The migration of colonic epithelial cells (restitution) is an important event in the repair of mucosal injuries. Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is a physiological initiator of the chemotactic migration of leucocytes. This study aimed to determine whether IL-8 had a similar effect on migration in an in vitro model of wounded colonic epithelium. Cell migration over 24 h was assessed in circular wounds made...

پاسخ متفاوت سلولهای قلبی به اسیدهای چرب اشباع و غیر اشباع

Introduction & Objective: The link between dietary fat and coronary heart disease has attracted much attention since the effect of long?chain fatty acids (LCFA) on gene transcription has been established, which in part, these effects can be explained by the regulation of gene transcription. In this study, the P19CL6 cardiac cell?line was targeted for the investigation of (i) the effects of long...

Metabolic Effects of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Chickens: A Review

Chicken has been used as a suitable model for lipid metabolism studies, because dietary modifications especially dietary fat type can change chicken body composition. Fats act as a condense source of energy and certain fatty acids such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are required for both animal and human health. The n-3 PUFAs, especially, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic ...

Modulation of angiogenesis-related proteins synthesis by sodium butyrate in colon cancer cell line HT29.

Sodium butyrate (NaB), a short-chain fatty acid naturally present in the human colon, is able to induce cell cycle arrest, differentiation and apoptosis in colon cancer cells. In addition to these effects, we investigated the effect of NaB on two angiogenesis-related proteins in a colon carcinoma cell line (HT29): vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), the most potent angiogenic factor, and...
