USA Vol. 77, No. 3, pp. 1551-1555, March 1980 Cell Biology Control of differentiation of a mammary cell line by lipids (domes/tumor promoters/fatty acids/lysolecithins) RENATO DULBECCO*, MAURO BOLOGNAt, AND MICHAEL UNGER The Salk Institute, 10010 N. Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla, California 92037 Contributed by Renato Dulbecco, December 17, 1979 ABSTRACT A rat mammary cell line (LA7) undergoes profound effect on cultured cells of various types (13, 14). These spontaneous differentiation into domes due to production of effects include stimulation of growth (15), suppression of several specific inducers by the cells. Some of these inducers may be kinds of differentiation and induction of some other lipids, and we show that lipids regulate this differentiation as (16-24), both inducers and inhibitors. One inhibitor is the tumor pro- kinds of differentiation (25-27). TPA also induces a phenotype moter tetradecanoyl-13 phorbol 12-acetate. The inducers are similar to that of transformed cells (28-30), with a reduced saturated fatty acids of two groups: butyric acid and acids with contact inhibition of growth (31), increased production of chain lengths from C13 to C16, especially myristic acid (C14). plasminogen activator (32-35), increased phospholipid turnover Other inducers are myristoyl and palmitoyl lysolecithins, (36-38), decrease of LETS protein (39), and induction of myristic acid methyl ester, and two cationic detergents with a polyamine synthesis (40). TPA may alter the function of the cell tetradecenyl chain. We propose that the lipids with a C14-CI6 plasma membrane, as its alkyl chain affect differentiation by recognizing specific re- suggested by ability to inhibit the ceptors through their alkyl chains and that the effects obtained binding of epidermal growth factor to its receptors at the cell depend on the head groups.

  • (L. 1758): on the Origin of Fatty Acids in Prepupae B
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN About lipid metabolism in Hermetia illucens (L. 1758): on the origin of fatty acids in prepupae B. Hoc1, M. Genva2, M.‑L. Fauconnier2, G. Lognay1, F. Francis1 & R. Caparros Megido1* Although increasingly targeted in animal nutrition, black soldier fy larvae or prepupae (BSF, Hermetia illucens L. 1758) require the characterization and modulation of their fatty acid profle to become fully integrated within the feed sector. This improvement will only be possible by the understanding of underlaying biochemical pathways of fatty acid synthesis in BSF. In this study, we hypothesized a labelling of de novo synthesized fatty acids in BSF by the incorporation of deuterated water (D2O) in their feed. Three batches of ffty larvae were reared on two diets with diferent polyunsaturated fatty acid profles moistened with 40% of H2O or D2O: chicken feed or 40% of chicken feed and 60% of fax cake. Although the occurrence of D2O in insect feed increased the larval development time and decreased prepupal weight, it was possible to track the biosynthesis of fatty acids through deuterium labelling. Some fatty acids (decanoic, lauric or myristic acid) were exclusively present in their deuterated form while others (palmitic, palmitoleic or oleic acid) were found in two forms (deuterated or not) indicating that BSF can partially produce these fatty acids via biosynthesis pathways and not only by bioaccumulation from the diet. These results suggest the importance of carbohydrates as a source of acetyl‑CoA in the constitution of the BSF fatty acid profle but also the potential importance of specifc enzymes (e.g.

The thermal characteristics and microstructure of the novel CPCM were analyzed using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). The thermal conductivities of CA–MA/EG CPCM were surveyed. The thermal stability of the CA–MA/EG was analyzed using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and thermal cycle tests. The results showed that the optimal mass content of CA–MA in CPCM was approximately 92.4% and the CA–MA was uniformly distributed in the vesicular structure of EG; the CA–MA/EG CPCM had an appropriate phase change temperature (Tm: 19.78 ◦C, Tf: 18.85 ◦C), high latent heat (Hm: 137.3 J/g, Hf: 139.9 J/g), and excellent thermostability and thermal reliability.

A mixture of eight fatty acids (linoleic, palmitic, stearic, myristic, elaidic, lauric, oleic, and palmitoleic acids) at similar concentrations identified in human amniotic fluid produces anxiolytic-like effects comparable to diazepam in Wistar rats. However, individual effects of each fatty acid remain unexplored. In Wistar rats, we evaluated the separate action of each fatty acidat the corresponding concentrations previously found in human amniotic fluid on anxiety-like behaviour. Individual effects were compared with vehicle, an artificial mixture of the same eight fatty acids, and a reference anxiolytic drug (diazepam, 2 mg/kg).
