1-Palmitoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphocholine and 3-palmitoyl-sn-glycerol-1-phosphocholine have been found to be equipotent in the stimulation of membrane-bound glycosyltransferases in microsomes
of rat intestinal villus cells. This indicates that the stimulatory effect of lysophosphatidylcholine is not stereospecific,
but that it may be related to a specific detergent property dependent upon the peculiar balance of hydrophilic and hydrophobic
components in the molecule. 相似文献

Resolution of individual molecular species of human platelet 1,2-diradyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholines and 1,2-diradyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamines by reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) allowed a thorough analysis of
those phospholipids labeled with [3H]arachidonic acid. Approximately 54% and 16% of the total incorporated radiolabel was found in choline glycerophospholipids
and ethanolamine glycerophospholipids, respectively, with ca. 90% of this being found in the 1,2-diacyl molecular species.
Eighty percent of [3H]-arachidonic acid incorporated into 1-acyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine in resting platelets was equally distributed between 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonoyl and 2-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, while 70% of the radiolabel in 1-acyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine was found in 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine. Thrombin stimulation (5 U/ml for 5 min) resulted in deacylation of all 1-acyl-2-[3H]arachidonoyl molecular species of 1-acyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and 1-acyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-ethanolamine. There was also a slight increase in 1-O-alkyl-2-[3H]arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and a significant increase in 1-O-alk-1′-enyl-2-[3H]arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine molecular species of over 300%. Thus, HPLC methodology indicates that arachidonoyl-containing
molecular species of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine are the major source of arachidonic acid in thrombin-stimulated
human platelets, while certain ether phospholipid molecular species become enriched in arachidonate. 相似文献

The acylation of lysophospholipids by rat liver acyltransferases was studied. A comparison between ester and ether lysophospholipids as substrates revealed large differences in substrate properties. For instance, oleic acid from oleoyl-CoA and arachidonic acid from arachidonoyl-CoA were not incorporated into 1-O-octadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine under experimental conditions that allowed an optimal transfer of oleic acid and arachidonic acid to 1-O-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine. However, we observed an acyl-CoA-independent transfer of arachidonic acid from 1-O-stearoyl-2-O-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoinositol to 1-O-octadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine. 相似文献

The differences in distribution of geometric isomers of unsaturated PC hydroperoxides generated by free radical oxidation
were compared, as corresponding hydroxy analogs, in heterogeneous liposomes and in a homogeneous methanol solution by using
HPLC with UV detection due to the presence of conjugated dienes. Identification of fractionated peak components was carried
out by GC-MS. When the oxidation of 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, PC(16∶0/18∶2), was initiated in liposomes by a hydrophilic azo radical initiator, and in a methanol
solution by a hydrophobic azo radical initiator, there was no significant difference in the relative percentages of 1-palmitoyl-2-(9-hydroxy-trans-10,trans-12-octadecadienoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (9-t,t-OH PC) and 1-palmitoyl-2-(13-hydroxy-trans-9,trans-11-octadecadienoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (13-t,t-OH PC) between the PC oxidized in liposomes and in the methanol solution. For the oxidation of 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, PC(16∶0/20∶4), the relative percentage of 1-palmitoyl-2-(5-hydroxy-trans-6,cis-8,11,14-eicosatetraenoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (5-OH PC) was significantly higher (P<0.01) than that of 1-palmitoyl-2-(15-hydroxy-cis-5,8,11,trans-13-eicosatetraenoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (15-OH PC) in liposomes. For the homogeneous methanol solution of PC(16∶0/20∶4), the relative percentage
of 5-OH PC was close to that of 15-OH PC. For the PC(16∶0/20∶4) oxidized in bulk with added pentamethylchromanol, the individual
amount of 15-OH PC, 1-palmitoyl-2-(11-hydroxy-cis-5,8trans-12,cis-14-eicosatetraenoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (11-OH PC), 1-palmitoyl-2-(12-hydroxy-cis-5,8,trans-10,cis-14-eicosatetraenoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (12-OH PC), 1-palmitoyl-2-(8-hydroxy-cis-5,trans-9,cis-11,14-eicosatetraenoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (8-OH PC), 1-palmitoyl-2-(9-hydroxy-cis-5,trans-7,cis-11,14-eicosatetraenoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (9-OH PC), and 5-OH PC were close to each other compared to the corresponding values in liposomes
and in methanol solution. The results obtained by gel permeation chromatography of the PC liposomes containing hydrophilic
2,2′-azobis-2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH) suggest that the AAPH added to the liposomes of PC(16∶0/20∶4) was partitioned
into the water phase and out of the hydrophobic region of the fatty acyl moieties of the PC. These results confirm that the
distance that exists in the bis-allylic carbons of the unsaturated fatty acyl moieties of PC from the interface between the
hydrophilic region of PC and the water phases played an important role in influencing hydrogen abstraction to form a symmetrical
distribution of hydroperoxide isomers in both the heterogeneous liposomes and the homogeneous methanol solution. 相似文献

1-0-Hexadecyl-2-0-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (platelet-activating factor) at 10−10-10−9 M induced slow contraction of isolated guinea-pig ilcal muscles and the contraction persisted for a long time. At a higher
concentration of 10−7 M, this phospholipid induced more rapid, but not greater, contraction. At higher concentrations (10−6-10−5 M), this phospholipid induced a biphasic response: rapid contraction followed by relaxation. At high concentrations, this
compound inhibited acetylcholine-induced contractions. The stimulatory effect of this phospholipid was ca. 300 times that
of 1-palmitoyl-2-0-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, while its inhibitory potency on induced contraction was similar to those of 1-palmitoyl-2-0-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and its lyso derivative. It was suggested that the differences in effects on contraction of different
concentrations of 1-0-hexadecyl- and 1-palmitoyl-2-0-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine were due to the dual effects of these compounds on the ileum: a strong stimulatory effect and a
moderate inhibitory effect on contraction. 相似文献

In mammalian systems, platelet-activating factor, 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, (PAF) is rapidly inactivated by a deacetylation/reacylation system that produces 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine which is highly enriched in arachidonic acid. There is some evidence that n−3 fatty acids may have
an impact on this system in humans but the nature of this impact is unclear. In rainbow trout, n−3 fatty acids are known to
be essential dietary components which are derived through the food chain. Substantial quantities of n−3 fatty acids are found
in trout membrane phospholipids. We show here that in sharp contrast to mammalian cells, trout cells acylate lyso platelet-activating
factor, alkyl-GPC, 1-O-alkyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, (lyso-PAF) with a high degree of specificity for n−3 fatty acids. When [3H]lysoPAF was incubated with these cells, only three molecular species of alkylacylglycerophosphocholine were produced, and
92% contained n−3 fatty acids. Since isolated membranes yielded similar results, it appears that the acylation proceedsvia a coenzyme A-independent transacylase as found in mammalian systems. 相似文献

The product of the ozonolysis of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine in ethanol-containing solvent was analyzed by chemiluminescence detection-HPLC with on-line electrospray
MS, and characterized on the basis of NMR spectroscopy and MS in high-resolution fast atom bombardment mode. The reaction
yielded a large amount of a novel ethoxyhydroperoxide compound [1-palmitoyl-2-(9-ethoxy-9-hydroperoxynonanoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine]. In addition to a structural analysis, we speculate on the reaction pathway and discuss the possibility
of ethoxyhydroperoxide as a potentially reactive ozonized lipid in food and biological materials. 相似文献

Ether lipid content and fatty acid distribution in rabbit polymorphonuclear neutrophil phospholipids
This study was undertaken to determine if rabbit neutrophils contain sufficient ether-linked precursor for the synthesis of
1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (platelet activatin factor) by a deacylation-reacylation pathway. The phospholipids from rabbit
peritoneal polymorphonuclear neutrophils were purified and quantitated, and the choline-containing and ethanolamine-containing
phosphoglycerides were analyzed for ether lipid content. Choline-containing phosphoglycerides (37%), ethanolamine-containing
phosphoglycerides (30%), and sphingomyelin (28%) were the predominant phospholipid classes, with smaller amounts of phosphatidylserine
(5%) and phosphatidylinositol (<1%). The choline-linked fraction contained high amounts of 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-(46%) and 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (54%), with a trace of the 1-O-alk-1′-enyl-2-acyl species. The ethanolamine-linked fraction contained high amounts of 1-O-alk-1′-enyl-2-acyl-(63%) and 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (34%), and a low quantity of the 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl species (3%). The predominant 1-O-alkyl ether chains found in thesn-1 position of the choline-linked fraction were 16∶0 (35%), 18∶0 (14%), 18∶1 (26%), 20∶0 (16%), and 22∶0 (9%). The major 1-O-alk-1′-enyl ether chains found in thesn-1 position of the ethanolamine-linked fraction were 14∶0 (13%), 16∶0 (44%), 18∶0 (27%), 18∶1 (12%) and 18∶2 (3%). The major
acyl groups in thesn-1 position of 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine were 16∶0, 18∶0 and 18∶1. The most abundant acyl group in thesn-2 position of all classes of choline- and ethanolamine-linked phosphoglycerides was 18⩺2. Although this work does not define
the biosynthetic pathway for platelet activating factor, it does show that there is ample precursor present to support its
synthesis by a deacylation-reacylation pathway. 相似文献

In vivo intestinal perfusion was used to follow the absorption of three different choline glycerophospholipids (CGP) in guinea
pig. These included 1-[3H]palmitoyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (diacyl-GPC), 1-[3H]-O-hexadecyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (alkylacyl-GPC) and 1,2-di-O-hexadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-[3H]-choline (dialkyl-GPC). About 80% of diacyl-GPC was absorbed within 4 hr, compared to 60% of alkylacyl-GPC and 30% of dialkyl-GPC.
The radioactivity disappearing from the perfusion fluid was recovered in intestinal lipids, mostly triacylglycerol, free fatty
acid and CGP from diacyl-GPC, CGP from alkylacyl-GPC and dialkyl-GPC. These results indicated that the nonhydrolyzable substrate
dialkyl-GPC was much less absorbed, whereas diacyl-GPC, which released over 80% of [3H]palmitic acid in the perfusion fluid, displayed the highest absorption rate. The intermediate picture observed for alkylacyl-GPC
suggested the possible involvement of a phospholipase A2, which was detected in the entire intestinal tract. This enzyme was further found to concentrate in villus cells, where it
is localized in the brush border membrane, as shown using two different subcellular fractionation procedures. These data suggest
a possible role of this new enzyme in the digestion of alimentary phospholipids. 相似文献

The potential for the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine by the bile canalicular membrane of the liver cell was assessed by
measuring the activity of a number of phospholipid synthesizing enzymes in isolated bile canalicular membrane fractions from
rat liver. The activity of these various enzymes was compared to that present in noncanalicular liver cell plasma membranes
and in microsomes. The CDP-choline: 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol-cholinephosphotransferase was virtually absent from the bile canalicular membranes but the specific activities of
S-adenosyl-L-methionine:phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase and acyl-CoA:1-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoryl-choline acyltransferase were 11–15% of those found in the microsomes. The bile canalicular membranes
also contained detectable acyl-CoA:sn-glycero-3-phosphate acyltransferase activity and the ability to potentiate the Ca++-stimulated exchange of bases between different phospholipids. These findings indicate that the bile canalicular membranes
have a very limited capacity for the formation of phosphatidylcholine under the assay conditions employed.

An adsorption process of magnetite nanoparticles functionalized with aminated chitosan (Fe3O4-AChit) showing application potential in nanomedicine into cell membrane models was studied. The cell membrane models were formed using a Langmuir technique from three selected phospholipids with different polar head-groups as well as length and carbon saturation of alkyl chains. The research presented in this work reveals the existence of membrane model composition-dependent regulation of phospholipid-nanoparticle interactions. The influence of the positively charged Fe3O4-AChit nanoparticles on a Langmuir film stability, phase state, and textures is much greater in the case of these formed by negatively charged 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-rac-(1-glycerol) (DPPG) than those created by zwitterionic 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DSPC) and 2-oleoyl-1-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC). The adsorption kinetics recorded during penetration experiments show that this effect is caused by the strongest adsorption of the investigated nanoparticles into the DPPG monolayer driven very likely by the electrostatic attraction. The differences in the adsorption strength of the Fe3O4-AChit nanoparticles into the Langmuir films formed by the phosphatidylcholines were also observed. The nanoparticles adsorbed more easily into more loosely packed POPC monolayer. 相似文献

Acetyl-CoA:1-alkyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (lyso-PAF) ultrasonic disruption in the presence of 25% glycerol from rat spleen microsomes. About
26% of the enzymatic activity was recovered in the 225,000×g supernatant by this treatment, although the specific activity
was slightly decreased compared with the original microsomes. The solubilized enzyme was remarkably susceptible to various
kinds of metal ions. Sulfhydryl reagents such as p-chloromercuribenzoate and N-ethyl-maleimide significantly inhibited the
enzyme reaction, suggesting that the enzyme is an SH enzyme. Based on the sedimentation pattern in sucrose density centrifugation,
the isoelectric point, the kinetic characteristics and the sensitivity to tryptic digestion of microsomes, it appears that
acetyl-CoA:lyso-PAF acetyltransferase does not differ from the acetyltransferase responsible for the transfer of acetate from
acetyl-CoA to 1-acyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine. 相似文献

In this study, the 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine content of human platelets was determined. The distribution of arachidonate among the 1,2-diacyl,
1-O-alkyl-2-acyl, and 1-O-alk-l′-enyl-2-acyl classes of choline- and ethanolamine-containing phosphoglycerides was also assessed. The major platelet
phospholipids were choline-containing phosphoglycerides (38%), ethanolamine-containing phosphoglycerides (25%) and sphingomyelin
(18%), with smaller amounts of phosphatidylserine (11%) and phosphatidylinositol (4%). In addition to the diacyl class, the
choline-linked fraction was found to contain both 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl (10%) and 1-O-alk-l′-enyl-2-acyl (9%) species. The ethanolamine-linked fraction, on the other hand, had an elevated level of the 1-O-alk-l′-enyl-2-acyl (60%) species and a small amount of the 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl component (4%). The major fatty acyl residues found in all classes of the choline and ethanolamine phospholipids
were 16∶0, 18∶0, (Δ9), 18∶2(n−6) and 20∶4(n−6). The 1-O-alk-l and 1-O-alk-l′-enyl fraction of the ethanolamine-linked phospholipids also contained substantial amounts of 22∶4(n−6), 22∶5(n−3)
and 22∶6(n−3) acyl chains. Arachidonate comprised 44% of the acyl residues in thesn-2 position of 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine. Corresponding values for the diacyl and 1-O-alk-l′-enyl-2-acyl species were 23% and 25%, respectively, based on all 20∶4(n−6) being linked to thesn-2 position of all classes. In the ethanolamine-linked phosphoglycerides, arachidonate constituted 60%, 20% and 68% of the
acyl groups in thesn-2 position of the 1,2-diacyl, 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl and 1-O-alk-l′-enyl-2-acyl classes, respectively. The content of 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine appears sufficient to support the synthesis of platelet activating factor by a deacylation-reacylation
pathway in platelets. Our findings also demonstrate that human platelets contain a significant amount of 1-O-alkyl-2-arachidonyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine that could possibly serve as a precursor of both platelet activating factor and bioactive arachidonate
metabolites. 相似文献

Described is a reaction sequence for the total synthesis of lyso platelet activating factor (lysoPAF; 1-O-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) and its enantiomer. The procedure is versatile and yields optically pure isomers of defined chain
length. The synthesis is equally suited for the preparation of lysoPAF analogues and its enantiomers with unsaturation in
the long aliphatic chain. First,rac-1(3)-O-alkylglycerol is prepared by alkylation ofrac-isopropylideneglycerol with alkyl methanesulfonate followed by acid-catalyzed removal of the ketal group. The primary hydroxy
group of alkylglycerol is then protected by tritylation, the secondary hydroxy group is acylated, and the protective trityl
group is removed under mild acidic conditions with boric acid on silicic acid, essentially without acyl migration. Condensation
of the diradylglycerol with bromoethyl dichlorophosphate in diethyl ether, hydrolysis of the resulting chloride, and nucleophilic
displacement of the bromine with trimethylamine givesrac-1-O-alkyl-2-acylglycero-3-phosphocholine in good overall yield. The racemic alkylacylglycerophosphocholine is finally treated
with snake venom phospholipase A2 (Ophiophagus hannah) which affords 1-O-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (lysoPAF) of natural configuration in optically pure form. The “unnatural” 3-O-alkyl-2-O-acyl-sn-glycerol-1-phosphocholine enantiomer, which is not susceptible to phospholipase A2 cleavage, gives 3-O-alkyl-sn-glycero-1-phosphocholine upon deacylation with methanolic sodium hydroxide. Homogeneity and structure of the intermediates
and final products were ascertained by carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy on monomeric solutions. 相似文献

A comparative approach has been used to investigate the molecular species composition of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and its
age variation throughout several developmental stages of chick and duck embryo brains. The brain PC consist of 15 major molecular
species which do not undergo appreciable variation in their relative abundance either during embryonic development or between
equivalent stages of maturation in the 2 avian species. In fact, a highly invariable molecular architecture of PC is shown
in the developing organ. Molecular species containing saturated or monounsaturated fatty acids were dominant in all stages
of development of the avian embryo brain. Among these molecular species, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine accounted for 75–80% of the total PC. 相似文献

Using the spectrofluorimetric method described by Wittenaueret al. [Wittenauer, L.A., Shirai, K., Jackson, R.L., and Johnson, J.D. (1984)Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 118, 894–901] for phospholipase A2 (PLA2) measurement, we have detected a phospholipase activity in Ailsa Craig and in mutantrin tomatoes at their normal harvest time (mature green stage). This activity in Ailsa Craig tomatoes increased at the beginning
of fruit ripening (green-orange stage) and then decreased slowly. The decrease in activity, however, was greater when ripening
occurred after tomato picking at normal harvest time than when ripening occurred on tomato plants. This phospholipase activity
was always higher inrin tomatoes than in normal ones. Thin-layer chromatography of compounds obtained after incubation of tomato extract demonstrated
a decrease in the substrate 1-acyl-2-{6[(7-nitro-2,1,3, benzoxadiazol-4-yl)amino]-caproyl}-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (C6-NBD-PC), and an increase in one product (NBD-aminohexanoic acid), but failed to detect the second product (1-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine). We, therefore, developed a new one-step method for separation and quantification of a mixture
of phospholipids and other lipids, using straight-phase-high-performance liquid chromatography with light-scattering detection.
This method detected another fatty acid-releasing activity in enzyme extract from green-orange tomatoes. This lipolytic enzyme
(or family of enzymes) slowly produced free fatty acids when 1-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine was added as substrate. The production of fatty acids was stoichiometric and more rapid when 1-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphate and 1-oleoyl-sn-glycerol were used as substrates. On the other hand, the same tomato extract was unable to hydrolyze 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphate and 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycerol. Crude tomato extract exhibited lipid acyl hydrolase activity according to the definition of Galliard [Galliard,
T. (1979), inAdvances in the Biochemistry and Physiology of Plant Lipids (Appelqvist, L.A., and Liljenberg, C. eds.), pp. 121–132, Elsevier, Amsterdam]. But in order to demonstrate whether tomato
extract contains PLA2 activity and/or lysophospholipase activity, further work on purified tomato extract will be necessary. 相似文献

The existence of ether-linked phospholipids, including 1-O-alk-1′-enyl-2-acyl and 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholines and ethanolamines in bonitoEuthynnus pelamis (Linnaeus) white muscle, was investigated by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Chemical ionization
(iso-butane) mass spectrometry of trimethylsilyl ethers derived from the corresponding ether-linked glycerophospholipids proved
effective not only for determining molecular weights but also for structural identification based on the ions [M−R]+, [M−RO]+ and [M+1]+. 1-O-Alk-1′-enyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and ethanolamine accounted for 3.0–6.0% and 3.6–7.6% of the total glycerophospholipids, respectively.
1-O-Alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and ethanolamine were also determined for one fish and accounted for 1.4% and 0.6% of the total
glycerophospholipids, respectively. The predominant long chains in thesn-1 position of the glycerol moieties were 16∶0, 18∶0 and 18∶1 in the case of the alkenylacyl and alkylacyl components. Fatty
acid distribution of individual glycerophospholipids was also determined. 相似文献

A radioimmunoassay (RIA) for measurement of platelet-activating factor (PAF) was developed. At a final antiserum dilution
of 1∶640, the lowest detection limit of PAF was 0.1 pmol (50 pg). The standard curve obtained was suitable for measurement
of PAF in amounts ranging from 0.1 pmol to 30 pmol. The antiserum showed high specificity. Cross-reaction for lysoPAF, lysophosphatidylcholine
and long-chain phosphati-dylcholines was very low (less than 0.025%). 1-Palmitoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine cross-reacted slightly (6.25%). PAF exogenously added to macrophage suspensions was quantitatively
determined by RIA after solvent extraction and high-performance liquid chromatographic separation. RIA was also used to estimate
PAF formation after stimulation of rabbit alveolar macrophages in suspension with calcium ionophore A23187. 相似文献

The specificity of rabbit antibodies produced by injection of 1-O-(15'-carboxypentadecyl)-2-N,N-dimethylcar-bamoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine bovine serum albumin (BSA) conjugates was examined by a thin-layer chromatography (TLC)/immunostaining
method. Phosphatidylcholine (PC), lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC), lyso platelet-activating factor (lysoPAF), phosphatidylethanolamine
(PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), phosphatidylserine (PS), sphingomyelin (SM), phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidic acid
(PA) and cardiolipin (CL) were not immunostained. Among several synthetic PAF-related compounds, the antibodies only bound
to PAF agonists which have the activity to induce washed rabbit platelet aggregation. The results suggest that the binding
sites of the antibodies on the PAF molecule are the acetyl group at thesn-2 position and the choline moiety at thesn-3 position of glycerol, both of which are essential for exerting the biological function of PAF and for binding to the PAF
receptors located on cellular membranes.

Vitamin E deficiency was found to stimulate FMLP (N-formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine)-induced biosynthesis of PAF
(1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) in polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN) from rat peritoneum. In three separate experiments each,
the amounts of PAF synthesized during 6min and 12 min incubation of PMN cells from control, vitamin E-supplemented, and vitamin
E-deficient rats were 129–240, 131–227 and 248–354 pmol/106 cells, respectively. The activity of the acetyl-transferase, which transfers the acetyl moiety of [3H]acetyl-CoA to 2-lysoPAF (1-O-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) to form [3H]PAF, was higher in PMN homogenates from vitamin E-deficient rats (2.28±0.07 nmol/min/mg protein) than in those from E-supplemented
rats (1.06±0.10 nmol/min/mg protein). However, there was no difference between the two groups in the activity of acetylhydrolase
(4.26±0.71 and 4.26±0.06 nmol/min/mg protein, respectively), measured as degradation of [3H]PAF to [3H]lysoPAF.In vitro addition of α-tocopherol did not inhibit the increased activity of acetyl-transferase in vitamin E-deficient rats, in-dicating
that the enzyme in vitamin E-supplemented rats was not directly inhibited by α-tocopherol. The acetyltransferases of the two
groups showed similar Km values for acetyl-CoA, but different Vmax values (225 μM and 6.4 nmol/min/mg protein in vitamin E-deficient
rats, and 216 μM and 3.6 nmol/min/mg protein in vitamin E-supplemented rats), suggesting that the enzyme was not activated
but increased in amount in vitamin E deficiency. 相似文献
