Herbal choline as an alternative to choline chloride in the diet of nursery piglets

Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2023
The objective of this work was to evaluate the replacement of choline chloride supplementation by herbal choline in the diet of nursery piglets. The experimental design was randomized complete blocks (initial weight and sex) with 80 piglets, in five ...

The PQ-loop protein Any1 segregates Drs2 and Neo1 functions required for viability and plasma membrane phospholipid asymmetry

Journal of Lipid Research, 2019
Membrane asymmetry is a key organizational feature of the plasma membrane. Type IV P-type ATPases (P4-ATPases) are phospholipid flippases that establish membrane asymmetry by translocating phospholipids, such as phosphatidylserine (PS) and ...

Use of immobilized phospholipase A1-catalyzed acidolysis for the production of structured phosphatidylcholine with an elevated conjugated linoleic acid content

Grasas y Aceites, 2012
Structured phosphatidylcholine (SPC) was successfully produced via immobilized phospholipase A1 (PLA1) – catalyzed acidolysis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) with conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).

Astrocytes are mainly responsible for the polyunsaturated fatty acid enrichment in blood–brain barrier endothelial cells in vitro

Journal of Lipid Research, 1998
To determine the respective roles of endothelial cells from brain capillaries and astrocytes in the conversion of circulating 18:2n–6 and 18:3n–3 into 20:4n–6 and 22:6n–3, respectively, a coculture of the two cell types mimicking the in vivo blood–brain ...

Anti-inflammatory Effects of Phosphatidylcholine [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2007
We recently showed that mucus from patients with ulcerative colitis, a chronic inflammatory disorder of the colon, is characterized by a low level of phosphatidylcholine (PC) while clinical studies reveal that therapeutic addition of PC using slow release preparations is beneficial. The positive role of PC in this disease is still elusive.

Phosphatidylcholine protects against the hepatotoxicity of acrylamide via maintaining metabolic homeostasis of glutathione and glycerophospholipid

Food Science and Human Wellness
Acrylamide is classified as a Class 2A carcinogen and mainly metabolized to produce hepatotoxicity. Phosphatidylcholine is thought to protect the liver from damage, but the protective role of phosphatidylcholine on acrylamide-exposed metabolic disorders ...

Insufficient glucose supply is linked to hypothermia upon cold exposure in high-fat diet-fed mice lacking PEMT[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2015
Mice that lack phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (Pemt−/− mice) are protected from high-fat (HF) diet-induced obesity. HF-fed Pemt−/− mice show higher oxygen consumption and heat production, indicating that more energy might be utilized for ...

Quantitation of cholesterol crystallization from supersaturated model bile1

Journal of Lipid Research, 2002
Cholesterol crystallization is an essential step in gallstone formation. Although spectrophotometry and nephelometry have been used for quantitation of crystallization, potential effects of crystal size and shape have not been evaluated.
