Effect of dietary fat on hepatic metabolism of 14C-oleic acid and very low density lipoprotein triglyceride in the gerbil.

In order to compare in vitro and in vivo aspects of lipid metabolism and lipoprotein secretion associated with the hyperlipemia of saturated fat feeding, gerbils were fed a diet containing 15% coconut oil or safflower oil for 6 weeks. In vitro incorporation of fatty acid was determined by measuring 14C-oleic acid incorporation into hepatic lipis in liver fasting gerbils following Triton WR1339 injection. The plasma lipoprotein profile was assessed by agarose electrophoresis. Coconut oil produced a hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia associated with the appearance of very low density migrating lipoprotein, not seen with the safflower oil. Coconut oil also increased the hepatic triglyceride content, enhanced 14C-oleic acid incorporation into total lipid, and favored fatty acid incorporation into triglyceride; safflower oil facilitated esterification of oleic acid into phospholipid. Triton blockade of gerbils fed safflower oil resulted in twice the triglyceride secretion rate of those fed coconut oil. Our interpretation of the data is that dietary polyunsaturated fat favors incorporation of fatty acids into phospholipid, enhances both triglyceride secretion and the plasma transport and clearance of triglyceride and cholesterol and that the hyperlipemia of coconut oil feeding reflects a reduced metabolic clearnace of circulating lipid associated with that dietary fat.

The effect of oleic acid on the secretion of thyrotrophin and growth hormone by cultured rat anterior pituitary cells.

Elevation of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) in vivo is associated with abnormal control of TSH. To determine whether TSH secretion is directly inhibited by NEFA, as has been reported for GH, cultured rat anterior pituitary cells were exposed for 20 h to oleic acid in medium containing 7.7 x 10(-5) mol/l bovine serum albumin (BSA). In a molar ratio with albumin of 1.2 (total oleic acid 9 x 10(-5) mol/l), or greater, oleic acid inhibited basal GH secretion (maximum inhibition to 40% of control) while basal TSH was less affected, a ratio of 3 (2.3 x 10(-4) mol/l oleic acid) or greater causing a smaller degree of inhibition (maximum inhibition to 80% of control). In the presence of 10(-9) mol/l growth hormone-releasing hormone or 10(-8) mol/l TRH, inhibition was achieved at a ratio of 12 (9 x 10(-4) mol/l oleic acid) or greater. Basal TSH was less sensitive to inhibition by thyroxine (T4) in the presence of oleic acid/albumin at a ratio of 6 or greater, and inhibition by oleic acid was less than additive with T4 at a ratio of 6 or greater. Responses to tri-iodothyronine (T3) were unaffected at a ratio of 6 (4.6 x 10(-4) mol/l oleic acid), but a ratio of 12 inhibited the effects of both T3 and T4 on TSH.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Development of an experimental model of an acute respiratory failure by intratracheal sea water infusion: a comparison with a conventional oleic acid induction.

An experimental model of acute respiratory failure (ARF) was successfully developed in dogs by endotracheal sea water infusion. Serial changes in blood gases and hemodynamics, and histological changes in the lungs after use of this method were compared with those of the conventional model induced by oleic acid, and the following results were observed. Blood gases deteriorated more rapidly after sea water than after oleic acid, while the changes caused by oleic acid progressed with time, and those caused by sea water did not. Not only systemic but also pulmonary hemodynamics were adversely influenced by oleic acid, but not by sea water. Extravascular lung water was observed to increase significantly in both groups. The increase was linear after oleic acid treatment, however, while with the sea water method it leveled off to a plateau. There was no significant difference between the histological changes in lungs of the two models. Our model will provide many advantages over the conventional one using oleic acid, and will be useful for studying the pathophysiology of ARF and its therapeutic strategies, such as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and/or carbon dioxide removal.

Incorporation into liver microsomal lipids of linoleic and stearic acids and of their respective products of delta 6 and delta 9 desaturation, gamma-linolenic and oleic acids: effect of age and of blackcurrant seed oil.

The incorporation of [1-14C]linoleic and [1-14C]stearic acid and of their delta 6 and delta 9 desaturation products (gamma-linolenic and oleic acids, respectively) into different classes of lipids was studied in liver microsomes of rats in function of the diet (blackcurrant seed oil diet, containing gamma-linolenic acid, versus control diet) and in function of age (3, 6 and 9 months). After delta 6 desaturation, total radioactivity was distributed between phospholipids, especially phosphatidylcholine, and neutral lipids. The desaturation product, gamma-linolenic acid, was totally recovered in the phospholipid fraction. Blackcurrant seed oil, which decreased the rate of delta 6 desaturation in 6- and 9-month-old rats, also decreased the incorporation of radioactivity in total phospholipids, especially in phosphatidylcholine. At 6 months of age, after delta 9 desaturation, the majority of radioactivity was recovered in neutral lipids principally as oleic acid, the desaturation product. The precursor, stearic acid, was highly incorporated into phospholipids, especially in rats on a diet of blackcurrant seed oil.

Oleic acid rich diet protects against the oxidative modification of high density lipoprotein.

Oxidative modifications of lipoproteins could contribute to the development of atherosclerosis, but the influence of dietary fats on high density lipoprotein (HDL) oxidative modification is unknown. This study was designed to determine whether a diet rich in oleic acid could modulate the oxidative modification of HDL3. Twenty two healthy men were randomly placed on a 32-wk crossover study of an oleic acid rich diet supplied by a variant of sunflower oil vs a linoleic acid rich diet provided by conventional sunflower oil. Plasma HDL3 obtained after the diet rich in oleic acid showed a significantly higher oleic acid content in the phospholipid than lipoprotein isolated after the linoleic acid rich diet. HDL3 isolated after the oleic acid rich diet had lower values of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) than HDL3 obtained after the linoleic acid rich diet both for native (mean +/- SE; 0.24 +/- 0.02 vs 0.42 +/- 0.08 nmol MDA/mg protein; p < 0.01) and copper oxidized HDL3 (0.75 +/- 0.06 vs 0.95 +/- 0.07 nmol MDA/mg protein; p < 0.01). Indeed, TBARS for native HDL3 were negatively correlated with the oleic acid to linoleic acid ratio and positively with the percentage of linoleic acid in their phospholipids. Interestingly, HDL3 after both diets had similar antioxidant vitamins A and E content. HDL3 overall composition and fluidity were similar after the two diets. Moreover, HDL3 obtained after both diets produced identical [3H] free cholesterol efflux from human monocyte-derived macrophages (29%) and fibroblasts (26%). In conclusion, HDL3 rich in oleic acid was less easily oxidized regardless of the content of antioxidants such as vitamins A and E. Therefore, dietary monounsaturated fatty acid prevent the oxidative modification of lipoproteins.

[omega]-Hydroxylation of Oleic Acid in Vicia sativa Microsomes (Inhibition by Substrate Analogs and Inactivation by Terminal Acetylenes).

Oleic acid (18:1) is hydroxylated exclusively on the terminal methyl by a microsomal cytochrome P-450-dependent system ([omega]-OAH) from clofibrate-induced Vicia sativa L. (var minor) seedlings (F. Pinot, J.-P. Salaun, H. Bosch, A. Lesot, C. Mioskowski, F. Durst [1992] Biochem Biophys Res Commun 184: 183-193). This reaction was inactivated by two terminal acetylenes: (Z)-9-octadecen-17-ynoic acid (17-ODCYA) and the corresponding epoxide, (Z)-9,10-epoxyoctadecan-17-ynoic acid (17-EODCYA). Inactivation was mechanism-based, with an apparent binding constant of 21 and 32 [mu]M and half-lives of 16 and 19 min for 17-ODCYA and 17-EODCYA, respectively. We have investigated the participation of one or more [omega]-hydroxylase isoforms in the oxidation of fatty acids in this plant system. Lauric acid (12:0) is [omega]-hydroxylated by the cytochrome P-450 [omega]-hydroxylase [omega]-LAH (J.-P. Salaun, A. Simon, F. Durst [1986] Lipids 21: 776-779). Half-lives of [omega]-OAH and [omega]-LAH in the presence of 40 [mu]M 17-ODCYA were 23 and 41 min, respectively. Inhibition of oleic acid [omega]-hydroxylation was competitive with linoleic acid (18:2), but noncompetitive with lauric acid (12:0). In contrast, oleic acid did not inhibit [omega]-hydroxylation of lauric acid. Furthermore, 1-pentadecyltriazole inhibited [omega]-hydroxylation of oleic acid but not of lauric acid. These results suggest that distinct monooxygenases catalyze [omega]-hydroxylation of medium- and long-chain fatty acids in V. sativa microsomes.

Identification of genes regulated by oleic acid in Jurkat cells by suppressive subtractive hybridization analysis.

In this study, the effect of oleic acid (50 microM) on gene expression of Jurkat cells (human T lymphocytes cell line) was examined using the suppressive subtractive hybridization approach. This technique allowed us to identify genes with higher or lower expression after cell treatment with oleic acid as compared to untreated cells. Oleic acid upregulated the expression of the translation elongation factor alpha 1 and ATP synthase 8 and downregulated gp96 (human tumor rejection antigen gp96), heat-shock protein 60 and subtilisin-like protein 4. These results suggest that oleic acid, at plasma physiological concentration, can regulate the expression of important genes to maintain the machinery that ensures cell functioning.

Ileal uptake of oleic acid: evidence for adaptive response to high fat feeding.

When I-14C oleic acid at 120 micron Eq/hr was infused into the duodenum in normal rats in a micellar solution with mono-olein (60 mu moles/hr) in 15 mM taurocholate over 6 hr uptake was nearly complete (97%). However, when this same solution was infused into the mid small bowel in control animals uptake was incomplete (88.9 +/- 2.6%, mean +/- SEM, P < 0.01). After 4 weeks on a high fat diet, containing 45% vegetable oil by weight, oleic acid uptake increased to 98.1 +/- 0.1% (P < 0.01 compared to controls). The improved uptake of oleic acid was associated with increased dry weight of mucosa in the proximal half of the ileum from 109 +/- 8.8/20 cm in controls to 135.6 +/- 7.3 mg/20 cm in high fat diet fed rats (P < 0.05), while protein increased from 107.4 +/- 6.5 to 124.9 +/- 4.8 mg/20 cm (P < 0.05). There was no increase in DNA expressed as mg/g wet weight of mucosa or in number of cells per villus. Lipid content of the mucosa and degree of esterification of absorbed oleic also were unaltered. These results indicate that the mucosa of the proximal ileum responds to high fat feeding by hypertrophy (increased mass and protein, with no change in DNA content or cell number) and that this change is associated with more complete uptake of oleic acid reaching this part of the small bowel.

The stimulation and binding of CTP: phosphorylcholine cytidylyltransferase by phosphatidylcholine-oleic acid vesicles.

The activity of the low molecular weight form of cytidylyltransferase from fetal lung cytosol and adult liver cytosol was stimulated more by phosphatidylcholine-oleic acid (1:1 molar ratio) vesicles than by phosphatidylglycerol vesicles. Phosphatidylcholine alone did not stimulate the activity, while oleic acid alone produced only slight stimulation. Vesicles prepared from phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol-cholesterol (2:1) and phosphatidylglycerol-phosphatidylcholine (1:1) all stimulated the activity to the same extent. Phosphatidylcholine-oleic acid vesicles (molar ratio 2:1) produced less stimulation than 1:1 vesicles. Phosphatidylcholine-palmitic acid vesicles (2:1) were about 50% as active as the corresponding phosphatidylcholine-oleic acid vesicles. All vesicles were in the size range of small unilamellar vesicles as judged by Sephacryl S-1000 chromatography. Stimulation also occurred when phosphatidylcholine vesicles and oleic acid were added separately to the assay. The stimulation by phospholipid vesicles was correlated with the ability of the vesicles to bind cytidylyltransferase, determined by sucrose density centrifugation of the enzyme-vesicles mixtures. We conclude that the stimulation of soluble cytidylyltransferase occurs through binding of the enzyme to anionic membrane surfaces. Suitable anionic membranes can be prepared either from anionic phospholipids, or by the addition of anionic lipids (unesterified fatty acids or phosphatidylglycerol) to phosphatidylcholine.

Oxydation of oleic acid to (E)-10-hydroperoxy-8-octadecenoic and (E)-10-hydroxy-8-octadecenoic acids by Pseudomonas sp. 42A2.

Biotransformation of oleic acid with Pseudomonas sp. 42A2 has been found to produce(E)-10-hydroxy-8-octadecenoic acid (2a), (E)-10-hydroperoxy-8-octadecenoic acid (3a), and (E)-7,10-dihydroxy-8-octadecenoic acid (4a). Structures of the metabolites were fully characterized by infrared and 1H and 13C NMR spectra of the acids, by fast atom bombardment (FAB) and electron impact (EI) and chemical ionization (CI) mass spectrometry of the corresponding methyl esters. This is the first time that the two former compounds of trans stereochemistry have been described to have originated from a Pseudomonas sp. cell culture. Time course of products accumulation showed that biotransformation started with bacterial growth, the amount of products 2a (5.58 g/l) and 4a (2.63 g/l) being optimum after 24 h of incubation while hydroperoxide 3a (1.15 g/l) reached its maximum after 16 h of the biotransformation process. Experiments conducted to ascertain whether the conversion enzyme(s) was cell-bound or extracellular, showed that the enzyme(s) is cell bound, located in the periplasmic space and has lipoxygenase activity.

Oleic acid blocks EGF-induced [Ca2+]i release without altering cellular metabolism in fibroblast EGFR T17.

EGFR-T17 cells were pretreated with oleic acid and 5-10 minutes later stimulated with EGF, to study if early ionic signals are instrumental in inducing metabolic cellular response. Oleic acid blocks EGF-induced [Ca2+]i rise and Ca2+ influx without altering 2-deoxyglucose and 2-aminobutiryc acid uptake nor acute, nor chronically. Oleic acid it is shown, in the first minutes favors the entrance of both molecules to modify the physico-chemical membrane state. On the other hand, oleic acid is unable to block protein synthesis. The results suggest that EGF-induced Ins(1,4,5)P3/Ca2+ pathway does not seem to be decisive in the control of cellular metabolic activity.

Rapid flip-flop of oleic acid across the plasma membrane of adipocytes.

Nonesterified long-chain fatty acids may enter cells by free diffusion or by membrane protein transporters. A requirement for proteins to transport fatty acids across the plasma membrane would imply low partitioning of fatty acids into the membrane lipids, and/or a slower rate of diffusion (flip-flop) through the lipid domains compared to the rates of intracellular metabolism of fatty acids. We used both vesicles of the plasma membrane of adipocytes and intact adipocytes to study transmembrane fluxes of externally added oleic acid at concentrations below its solubility limit at pH 7.4. Binding of oleic acid to the plasma membrane was determined by measuring the fluorescent fatty acid-binding protein ADIFAB added to the external medium. Changes in internal pH caused by flip-flop and metabolism were measured by trapping a fluorescent pH indicator in the cells. The metabolic end products of oleic acid were evaluated over the time interval required for the return of intracellular pH to its initial value. The primary findings were that (i) oleic acid rapidly binds with high avidity in the lipid domains of the plasma membrane with an apparent partition coefficient similar to that of protein-free phospholipid bilayers; (ii) oleic acid rapidly crosses the plasma membrane by the flip-flop mechanism (both events occur within 5 s); and (iii) the kinetics of esterification of oleic acid closely follow the time dependence of the recovery of intracellular pH. Any postulated transport mechanism for facilitating translocation of fatty acid across the plasma membrane of adipocytes, including a protein transporter, would have to compete with the highly effective flip-flop mechanism.

Pathophysiological patterns of resolution from acute oleic acid lung injury in the dog.

Lungs of mongrel dogs with permanent tracheostomies and implanted systemic pulmonary arterial catheters were injured by intravenous infusion of oleic acid (0.09 mg/kg). Injury resulted in extensive, multifocal, and nonrandomly distributed lung damage. Awake dogs were studied during a control period and 1, 4, and 7 days following injection of oleic acid. Standard gas exchange measurements, the inert gas elimination technique, and subsegmental bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) were used. Five oleic acid dogs and two saline control dogs were killed after each study period for morphological evaluation. Control dogs did not develop significant gas exchange abnormalities but did have localized inflammatory reactions at the lavage site. The oleic acid dogs developed significant shunt at day 1 with resolution of shunt by day 7. The multifocal sites of oleic acid injury were virtually identical in appearance at a given time interval; they consisted of alveolar cell necrosis with varying amounts of hemorrhagic inflammatory exudation at day 1 followed by a proliferative reparative reaction resulting in substantial restoration of alveolar structure at day 7. BAL showed a suppurative inflammatory response with hemorrhage on day 1 and an increased number of macrophages by day 7. The oleic acid model of acute diffuse lung injury demonstrates several pathophysiological alterations that could be compared with pathomorphological changes during the acute injury phase and during the subsequent reparative phase.

Variations in serum cholesteryl ester transfer and phospholipid transfer activities in healthy women and men consuming diets enriched in lauric, palmitic or oleic acids.

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) and phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) activities were measured in sera from 32 normolipidemic women and men consuming diets enriched in lauric, palmitic, or oleic acids. Serum CETP activity, measured as the rate of radiolabeled cholesteryl esters transferred from HDL toward serum apo B-containing lipoproteins, was higher with the palmitic acid diet (25.1+/-2.5%) than with the lauric acid (23.7+/-2.4%) and the oleic acid (24.0+/-2.7%) diets (P = 0.0028 and 0.0283, respectively). CETP mass concentrations, as measured with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were increased after the lauric acid diet (2.57+/-0.63 mg/l) and the palmitic acid diet (2.49+/-0.64 mg/l) as compared with the oleic acid diet (2.34+/-0.45 mg/l) (P = 0.0035 and 0.0249, respectively). In contrast with CETP, serum PLTP activity, as measured as the rate of radiolabeled phosphatidylcholine transferred from liposomes toward serum HDL, was significantly higher with the lauric acid diet (23.5+/2.6%) than with the palmitic acid diet (22.5+/-2.5%) (P = 0.0013), while no significant differences were noted when comparing the saturated diets versus the oleic acid diet (23.0+/-2.3%). No significant alterations in the mean apparent diameter of LDL, and in the relative proportions of individual HDL subpopulations were observed from one dietary period to another. Nevertheless, lipid transfer activities correlated significantly with the relative abundance of HDL2b, HDL2a, HDL3b, and HDL3c, with opposite tendencies being observed for cholesteryl ester transfer and phospholipid transfer activities. In general, serum CETP activity correlated negatively with HDL cholesterol, but positively with triglyceride concentrations after the dietary interventions, and the relations with serum lipids were just the opposite for PLTP activity. In addition, CETP and PLTP activities correlated negatively when subjects consumed the standardized diets (P < 0.05 in all cases), but not when subjects consumed their habitual diet. It is concluded that serum lipid transfer activities in normolipidemic subjects can be significantly affected by the fatty acid content of the diet, with differential effects on CETP and PLTP activities.

Oleic Acid and Its Positional Isomer, cis-Vaccinic Acid, in the Appendix of Sauromatum guttatum during Anthesis.

The fatty acid profiles of various organs of the thermogenic inflorescence of Sauromatum guttatum and of the sporophylls of thermogenic male cones of two cycad species (Encephalartos ferox and Dioon edule var edule and var angustifolium) were determined by gas chromatography. During anthesis, palmitate (16:0), oleate [18:1 (9)], cis-vaccinate [18:1 (11)], and linoleate [18:2 (9, 12)] were the most abundant fatty acids in the Sauromatum appendix. cis-Vaccinic acid, a positional isomer of oleic acid, was identified by comparing its retention time on a gas chromatography column and its mass spectrum to an authentic compound. The percentage of oleic acid from total fatty acids dropped from about 9 in the morning 3 d before heat production to 6 in the morning 2 d before heat production. At this time, the percentage of cis-vaccinic acid increased from 3 to 11%, and then remained at this level until the inflorescence dried and died. Palmitoleic acid [16:1 (9)], the common precursor of cis-vaccinic acid, is a minor component of total fatty acids. In six other organs of the Sauromatum inflorescence including thermogenic organs, such as male flowers and lower spadix, palmitate, oleate, and linoleate were prevalent but cis-vaccinate was not. The thermogenic male cones of the two cycad species were rich in palmitic, oleic, and linolenic acids. The level of cis-vaccinic acid in these organs was less than 0.5%.

Distribution and excretion of orally administered oleic acid anilide in the rat.

Oleic acid anilide [aniline-14C(U)] was administered by gastric tube to male rats in a single dose (10 mg/kg body weight). After intervals of 3, 6, 24 or 120 h the excretion of radioactivity and the distribution in different organs were studied. The radioactivity was eliminated rapidly through the urine and faeces containing 62% and 38%, respectively, after 24 h. At this time the excretion was almost complete. No radioactivity could be found in the expired air. The absorbed oleic anilide was easily deacylated as evidenced by the excretion of N-acetyl-p-aminophenol conjugate as the main urinary metabolite representing 60-70% of the urinary radioactivity. The radioactivity in faeces was due to the unchanged substance. Twenty-four hours after administration only 0.7% of the dose remained in the total organism with the highest concentrations in the red blood cells, spleen and forestomach. Even after 5 daily doses, an accumulation of radioactivity could not be found.

Does the site of intestinal delivery of oleic acid alter the ileal brake response?

Previous work has demonstrated that high doses of oleic acid can activate the ileal brake but the importance of site of delivery has yet to be investigated. The objective of this study was to use modified release capsules to release oleic acid in different regions of the intestine. When tested by in vitro dissolution in pH 6.8 phosphate buffer, one batch released the contents almost immediately, another after around 30 min and the last batch after around 60-70 min. The effect of oleic acid release site on the ileal brake was assessed by the measurement of transit time of radiolabelled non disintegrating tablets by gamma scintigraphy. The results demonstrated that the transit of tablets could be slowed down by oleic acid and therefore it appears the ileal brake can be activated along the entirety of the small intestine.

Oleic acid dose-related edema in isolated canine lung perfused at constant pressure.

Fatty acid embolism of the lung results in pulmonary edema. Isolated lung lobes ventilated and blood perfused at constant pressure were treated with 1 (n = 6) or 45 microliter/kg body wt (n = 6 oleic acid or saline (n = 7). Lobe weight increase linearly over 1-3 h following oleic with regression slopes indicating a more rapid rate of weight gain at the higher oleic acid dosage. Total lobe weight gain was greater in the 45 than in the 1 microliter/kg group (0.60 +/- 0.10 vs. 0.31 +/- 0.07 g/g initial lobe wt) and greater in the acid-treated lobes than in the controls (0.13 +/- 0.05 g/g initial lobe wt). Pulmonary vascular resistance increased 79% after 45 microliter/kg oleic acid but appeared unchanged following 1 microliter/kg oleic acid or saline. The decrease in arterial O2 partial pressure was greater in the 45 microliter/kg group than in the controls, 47 vs 22 Torr. High vascular pressures and increased flow velocities in patent vessels are not essential for oleic acid-associated edema, since weight increased at constant pressure perfusion. Weight gain related to oleic acid dosage suggests that oleic acid increases permeability by affecting the vascular endothelium either directly or through biochemical intermediates endogenous to the lung or blood.
