Tissue sterol composition was determined in an 18-year-old male with sitosterolemia with xanthomatosis who died suddenly and whose coronary and aortic vessels showed extensive atherosclerosis and, for comparison, in an 18-year-old male with minimal atherosclerosis who died accidently. Sterols in the control tissues (plasma, erythrocytes, cardiac muscle, lung, liver, aorta, and brain) contained ...
Several studies have shown that differences in lipid composition and in the lipid biosynthetic pathway affect the aluminium (Al) tolerance of plants, but little is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying these differences. Phospholipids create a negative charge at the surface of the plasma membrane and enhance Al sensitivity as a result of the accumulation of positively charged Al(3+) i...
Eighty to ninety percent of vegetative cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae DCL 740 incubated in KCl-acetate medium form asci, the majority of which are four-spored. Ascospores are visible in asci after about 24 hr, and spore formation is complete after about 48 hr. The dry weight of the cells increases by about 75% during 48 hr of incubation, while the lipid content of the cells increases by a fa...
Chagas' disease, the leading cause of heart failure in Latin America, is caused by the kinetoplastid protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi. The sterols of T. cruzi resemble those of fungi, both in composition and in biosynthesis. Azole inhibitors of sterol 14alpha-demethylase (CYP51) successfully treat fungal infections in humans, and efforts to adapt the success of antifungal azoles posaconazole and rav...
Six samples of human coprolites, some more than 2,000 years old, were analyzed for fecal steroid composition. Despite this very lengthy period of storage, the fecal steroids of coprolites were remarkably similar to those of stool samples collected today. The sterol nucleus was clearly rather stable under the dry environmental conditions of the Nevada Caves. The steroid content (microgram/g drie...
The objective of the present study was to assess the intake of naturally occurring plant sterols and β-carotene via the overall diet of Belgian pre-school children and adults. Two different Belgian food consumption databases were used: (1) one with consumption data of pre-school children (2·5-6·5 years old) and (2) one with consumption data of adults ( ≥ 15 years old). These consumption data we...
Involvement of sterols in membrane structural properties has been extensively studied in model systems but rarely assessed in natural membranes and never investigated for the plant plasma membrane (PM). Here, we address the question of the role of phytosterols in the organization of the plant PM. The sterol composition of tobacco BY-2 cell PM was determined by gas chromatography. The cyclic oli...
Esterification of free cholesterol was investigated after incubation at 37 degrees C of plasma from immature and adult rats of both sexes kept on stock, fat-free, or cholesterol-supplemented diets. According to measurements of the decrease in free cholesterol, plasma from the fat-deficient rats showed the highest cholesterol-esterifying activity. Esterification was higher in the mature female r...
