The hair levels of unsaturated fatty acids (oleic, linoleic, and linolenic) indicators of the lipid metabolic balance.

The lipid metabolism was evaluated using a new method for assay of the hair contents in unsaturated fatty acids. Determinations in various hair segments and in the blood serum were performed before and after a hypolipemic diet and drug therapy in hypercholesterolemic patients in comparison with a control group. The correlation factors between the levels of the oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids in the serum and those in the hair were +0.967, +0.987 and +0.992, respectively. The method provides information on the therapy influence on the lipid metabolism variations within several weeks or months.

Commercial double-indicator-dilution densitometer using heavy water: evaluation in oleic-acid pulmonary edema.

We evaluated a commercially available, double-indicator-dilution densitometric system for the estimation of pulmonary extravascular water volume in oleic acid-induced pulmonary edema. Indocyanine green and heavy water were used as the nondiffusible and diffusible tracers, respectively. Pulmonary extravascular water volume, measured with this system, was 67% of the gravimetric value (r = 0.91), which was consistent with values obtained from the radioisotope methods. The measured volume was not influenced by changes in cardiac index over a range of 1 to 4 L.min.m2. This system is less invasive than the thermal-dye technique and has potential for repeated clinical measurements of pulmonary extravascular lung water and cardiac output.

Effects of linoleic and oleic acid anilides on prostacyclin synthesis and fibrinolytic profile of human endothelial cells in culture: relevance to the toxic oil syndrome.

We evaluated the effects of fatty-acid anilides (FAA) on prostacyclin (PGI2) synthesis and on the fibrinolytic properties of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Preincubation of endothelial cells with oleic- and linoleic-anilides (OAA and LAA, respectively) resulted in a time- and concentration-dependent inhibition of ionophore A23187- and thrombin-induced PGI2 synthesis. However, no significant effects of FAA on arachidonic acid-induced PGI2 synthesis were found, except with 1000 microM LAA which inhibited cyclooxygenase activity after 24 h. In general terms, OAA showed similar inhibitory effects on PGI2 production as did LAA, but with a shifted time course, since the production of PGI2 at 24 h for OAA was similar to that observed for LAA at 2 h. The release of labeled arachidonic acid from cell membranes was significantly reduced (75-85%), after 24 h, with both FAA. The effect of 100 microM LAA on thrombin-induced PGI2 production was rapid (within 15 min) and irreversible after 60 min. The recovery of PGI2 synthesis after LAA treatment was blocked by cycloheximide, suggesting a decrease of phospholipase(s) activity or cessation of enzyme synthesis. Moreover, this reduced PGI2 synthesis was not associated with [3H]adenine release. Our data indicate that FAA induce a significant impairment of stimulated PGI2 synthesis and arachidonic acid release in endothelial cells, acting primarily as inhibitors of phospholipase(s) rather than of cyclooxygenase. Finally, both LAA and OAA induce an anti-fibrinolytic activity in these cells where major changes are observed in the plasminogen activator inhibitor and the urine-type plasminogen activator.

Influence of positive end-expiratory pressure ventilation on peripheral tissue perfusion evaluated by measurements of tissue gases and pH. An experimental study in pigs with oleic acid lung injury. .

UNLABELLED: Measurements of subcutaneous oxygen tension (PscO(2)), subcutaneous carbon dioxide tension (PscCO(2)) and subcutaneous pH (pHsc) were used for evaluation of peripheral oxygenation in pigs subjected to oleic acid-induced lung injury during ventilation with increasing levels of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Lung injury resulted in a decrease of arterial oxygen tension (PaO(2)) from 93 to 37 mm Hg (p<0.01) with maintained cardiac output. PscO(2) decreased from 45 to 17 mm Hg (p<0.01) and pHsc from 7.47 to 7.39 (p<0.05), and PscCO(2) increased from 46 to 59 mm Hg (p<0.05). Increase of PEEP level between 5 and 20 cm H(2)O resulted in a continuous increase of PaO(2) from 45 to 145 mm Hg and a decrease of cardiac output from 4.1 to 2.0 liters/min (p<0.01). PscO(2) increased up to a PEEP level of 15 cm H(2)O, reaching 26 mm Hg. Further increase of PEEP level up to 20 cm H(2)O resulted in an increase of PscCO(2) from 65 to 71 mm Hg (p<0.05) and a decrease of pHsc from 7.31 to 7.29 (p<0.05). IN CONCLUSION: measurements of tissue gases and pH can be used to evaluate optimum peripheral tissue oxygenation during titration of PEEP level. Whether these measurements can be used as the only indicator to guide therapy in an individual case remains to be studied.

An oleate desaturase and a suppressor loci direct high oleic acid content of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) oil in the Pervenets mutant.

All the [HOAC] lines derived from the Pervenets mutant carry a specific RFLP (oleHOS) revealed by an oleate desaturase cDNA used as a probe. The [LO] (linoleic) genotypes do not carry oleHOS, but another allele: oleLOR. We studied [HOAC] heredity in two segregating populations. In an F2 population, the [HOAC] trait co-segregated with oleHOS. In a recombinant inbred line F6 population, all [HOAC] RI lines carried oleHOS. The RI lines carrying oleHOS were either [LO] or [HOAC]. The absence of [HOAC] RI lines with oleLOR eliminated the occurrence of a recombination event between the locus carrying oleHOS and the locus carrying Pervenets allele. The [HOAC] trait is due to 2 independent loci: the locus carrying oleHOS allele and another locus. One allele at this other locus may suppress the effect of oleHOS allele on the [HOAC] trait. The existence of this suppressor allele has only been suggested for sunflower.
