Serum Albumin Washing Specifically Enhances Arachidonate Incorporation into Synaptosomal Phosphatidylinositols

Arachidonate incorporation into synaptosomal phospholipids was shown to be affected by factors including the procedure for preparation of the membrane fractions and preincubation of synaptosomes prior to assay of incorporation of arachidonate into both phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylinositol (PI). However, the inhibition toward incorporation into PIs, but not PCs, was fully reversed when the membranes were washed with bovine serum albumin. A twofold increase in arachidonate incorporation into PIs was also observed when freshly prepared synaptosomes were washed with serum albumin immediately before assay of incorporation activity. The inhibitory action is thought to be due to an increase in polyunsaturated fatty acids and/or their oxidation products which may then elicit a special effect on the acyltransferase responsible for transferring arachidonate into phosphatidylinositols. The differences in fatty acid uptake and response to serum albumin also suggest the presence of different acyltransferase for acyl transfer to PIs and PCs.     

Detergent Effects on the Phosphatidylinositol-Specific Phospholipase C in Rat Brain Synaptosomes

In the presence of Ca2+ (2.5 mM) and using [14C]arachidonoyl phosphatidylinositol (PI) membrane as substrate, phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) (EC 3.1.4.10) in rat brain synaptosomes was activated by deoxycholate but not taurocholate. Calcium stimulated enzymic hydrolysis by both detergents, but the stimulatory effect of taurocholate was less than that of deoxycholate. Peak stimulation for deoxycholate was observed at 1 mg/ml, whereas that for taurocholate was 4 mg/ml. When 1 mM EDTA was added to the taurocholate (4 mg/ml) and Ca2+ (3.5 mM) system, synaptosomal PI-PLC activity was greatly stimulated, to almost the same level as the deoxycholate + Ca2+ system. This system required the presence of all three factors, and EGTA could not effectively replace EDTA in the stimulatory action. The detergent-induced hydrolysis of synaptosomal PI by the deoxycholate + Ca2+ and the taurocholate + Ca2+ + EDTA systems was strongly inhibited by divalent metal ions such as Zn2+, Cu2+, Pb2+, and Fe2+, whereas Mg2+ and Ca2+ were ineffective. Nevertheless, only the deoxycholate + Ca2+ system was responsive to enzyme inhibition by membrane-perturbing agents such as lysophospholipids and free fatty acids. The specific requirement for EDTA in the taurocholate system may be due to the release of a pool of inhibitory divalent metal ions from the membranes.     

THE METABOLISM OF PALMITIC ACID IN THE PHOSPHOLIPIDS, NEUTRAL GLYCERIDES AND GALACTOLIPIDS OF MOUSE BRAIN

Abstract— Following intracerebral injection, [¹⁴C]palmitic acid was rapidly incorporated into a variety of brain lipids. After 12 hr, 78 per cent of the lipid radioactivity was in phospholipids, 15 per cent was in triacylglycerols, 1 per cent each was in free fatty acids and galactolipids, and the remainder was in other neutral glycerides. Over 65 per cent of the phospholipid radioactivity was found in the choline phosphoglycerides but this proportion decreased substantially with time. At later times, increasing portions of the radioactivity were present in the monounsaturated acyl groups and the alkenyl groups but no radioactivity was detected in cholesterol or polyunsaturated acyl groups. These results indicate that most of the extensive recycling of radioactivity took place without oxidative degradation of the palmitoyl groups. The relative rates of incorporation of radioactivity were compared at 12 hr after injection. The specific radioactivities of the serine, ethanolamine, and choline phosphoglycerides had ratios of 6:3:2 based on the palmitoyl group content and 1:2:4 based on their phosphorus content. The specific radioactivities of galactolipids with O -acyl groups were higher than the specific radioactivitiesof cerebrosides or cerebroside sulphates. A new solvent mixture for thin-layer chromatography of brain galactolipids was described (chloroform-acetone-methanol-water, 60:20:20:1, by vol.).     

用生物发光法对绿浓杆菌粘附因子的研究

A bioluminescence method was established for quantifying the adhesion of P. aeruginosa to polystyrene and the adherent components were investigated. The results indicated that the slime polysaccharide (SPS) is an important adherent factor of some slime strains of P. aeruginosa. The adhered amount of washed slime strains could be increased by pre-coating of polystyrene with SPS obtained from PA3. The activity of PA3SPS could be inhibited by anti-PA3SPS antiserum and blocked by N-acetylglucosamine.     

微管的冷稳定性与植物抗寒性关系的研究

利用间接免疫荧光的细胞化学技术对番茄、黄瓜、菠菜、甜菜及小麦等不同抗寒性植物微管的冷稳性进行了比较研究。结果指出,不抗寒的喜温性植物番茄和黄瓜的气孔保卫细胞的微管在0℃—1℃冷处理3小时即解聚;属于中等抗寒性植物的菠菜和甜菜幼苗经秋季低温锻炼后,其气孔保卫细胞的微管在0℃和—5℃低温处理3小时,均不发生解聚;具有较强抗寒性的冬小麦品种农大139幼苗在2—3℃低温锻炼期间,微管结构保持完整,经过15天低温锻炼的幼苗在-8℃冰冻处理3小时,微管也不受破坏。这些结果表明,微管的冷稳性与植物的抗寒性成正相关。
