Abstract

Oleic acid (18:1n-9, OA), docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3, DHA), or eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5n-3, EPA) was added to HepG2 cells at a concentration of 1 mM in a 5:1 or 2:1 molar complex with bovine serum albumin (BSA), and this was incubated for 3 hours. The incorporation of 3H-glycerol into cellular and medium triglyceride (TG), and the mass of TG were measured. The effects of these fatty acids on the secretion of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) apolipoprotein B (apo B) were estimated from the incorporation of 3H-leucine into the medium apo B in comparison to cells incubated with fatty acid-poor albumin. The secretion of human albumin by the cells was also estimated by immunochemical precipitation of the labeled albumin. In addition, the intracellular levels of apo B messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) were measured by the dot-blot hybridization technique. Relative to control cells incubated with BSA, OA (complexed to BSA at a 5:1 molar ratio) stimulated TG synthesis and secretion sevenfold. Compared to OA, EPA was 24% less effective for both processes, whereas DHA inhibited only the secretion of TG (-43%). The secretion of VLDL apo B was not affected by OA, but was decreased 31% by EPA and 54% by DHA. When the molar ratio of fatty acid complexed to albumin was changed to 2:1, similar results were obtained with respect to TG production. The levels of apo B mRNA relative to actin mRNA were not significantly altered by any of the fatty acids.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
