Fatty acid composition of diacyl, alkylacyl, and alkenylacyl phospholipids of control and arachidonate-depleted rat polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
Phospholipid fatty acid composition and phospholipid subclass distribution of control and arachidonate-depleted rat polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) were compared. The 20:4-depleted PMN contained significantly higher amounts of 16:1, 18:1 and 20:3 (delta 5,8,11) and lower amounts of 18:2 and 20:4...

description | Phospholipid fatty acid composition and phospholipid subclass distribution of control and arachidonate-depleted rat polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) were compared. The 20:4-depleted PMN contained significantly higher amounts of 16:1, 18:1 and 20:3 (delta 5,8,11) and lower amounts of 18:2 and 20:4 than the phospholipids from control cells. Choline-containing glycerophospholipids (CGP) were the major phospholipids of both control and 20:4-depleted cells representing 34% and 37% of the total phospholipids, respectively. Significant amounts of ethanolamine-containing glycerophospholipids (EGP) (29% and 30%) and sphingolipids (20% and 18%) were also present in both cell types. Serine-containing glycerophospholipids (SGP) together with inositol-containing glycerophospholipids (IGP) constituted 16% and 13% of the phospholipids in control and 20:4-depleted cells, respectively. CGP from control cells had significantly higher amounts of 16:0 and 18:2 and lower amounts of 18:0 and 20:4 than EGP, whereas CGP from 20:4-depleted cells has higher amounts of 16:0 and 16:1 and lower amounts of 20:3 than EGP. Analysis of the subclass composition of CGP and EGP revealed that both control and 20:4-depleted cells contained significantly large amounts of alkylacyl-GPC and alkenylacyl-GPE. Small amounts of alkylacyl-GPE and alkenylacyl-GPC were also observed. The predominant fatty acyl residues found in the 1,2-diacyl-GPC, alkylacyl-GPC of control cells were 16:0, 18:0, 18:1, 18:2, and 20:4, while those of 20:4-depleted cells were 16:0, 16:1, 18:0, 18:1, and 20:3. More than 60% of CGP-bound 20:4 of control cells and about 70% of the CGP-bound 20:3 of 20:4-depleted cells were found in their alkylacyl species.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) |
