Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of trans-fatty acids (TFA) on liver and serum TAG regulation in mice fed diets containing different proportions of n-3, n-6 and n-9 unsaturated fatty acids (UFA) from olive (O), maize (C) or rapeseed (R) oils partially substituted or not with TFA (Ot, Ct and Rt, respectively). Male CF1 mice were fed (30 d) one of these diets. The effects of the partial substitution (1 %, w/w) of different UFA with TFA on the activity and expression of hepatic enzymes involved in lipogenesis and fatty acids oxidation were evaluated, as well as their transcription factor expressions. Some of the mechanisms involved in the serum TAG regulation, hepatic VLDL rich in TAG (VLDL-TAG) secretion rate and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity were assessed. In liver, TFA induced an increase in TAG content in the Ot and Rt groups, and this effect was associated with an imbalance between lipogenesis and β-oxidation. In the Ot group, exacerbated lipogenesis may be one of the mechanisms responsible for the liver steatosis induced by TFA, whereas in Rt it has been related to a decreased β-oxidation, compared with their respective controls. The enhanced hepatic VLDL-TAG secretion in the Ot and Rt groups was compensated with a differential removal of TAG by LPL enzyme in extrahepatic tissues, leading to unchanged serum TAG levels. In brief, the effects of low levels of TFA on liver and serum TAG regulation in mice depend on the dietary proportions of n-3, n-6 and n-9 UFA.

Abstract
Effects of dietary fat on dairy cows are reviewed. Dietary fat did not affect gain in BW or body condition score after peak lactation but tended to increase BW loss during early lactation and body fat deposition in growing cattle. Dietary fat decreased de novo fatty acid synthesis in adipose tissue. Basal FFA release from adipose tissue in vitro and beta-adrenergic lipolytic responses were increased by protected polyunsaturated fatty acids. Dietary fat increased body fat in growing pigs and decreased BW loss in lactating sows. Dietary fat decreased de novo fatty acid synthesis and basal glycerol release in adipose tissue and tended to increase simultaneously beta-adrenergic lipolytic responses to increased membrane fluidity. Dietary fat increased body fat in rats. Polyunsaturated fatty acids were sometimes less efficient than saturated ones in increasing body fat. Lipoprotein lipase activity in adipose tissue generally decreased. Hepatic fatty acid synthesis was decreased sharply by polyunsaturated fatty acids, and adipose tissue response was less important. beta-Adrenergic-stimulated lipolysis decreased, and fatty acid esterification increased, particularly from saturated fatty acids. A trend toward insulin resistance, which was more marked with saturated fatty acids, occurred in adipose tissue.

Abstract
The influence of the linoleic acid levels of diets containing partially hydrogenated marine oils (HMO) rich in isomeric 16:1, 18:1, 20:1 and 22:1 fatty acids on the fatty acid profiles of lipids from rat liver, heart and adipose tissue was examined. Five groups of rats were fed diets containing 20 wt % fat--16% HMO + 4% vegetable oils. In these diets, the linoleic acid contents varied between 1.9% and 14.5% of the dietary fatty acids, whereas the contents of trans fatty acids were 33% in all groups. A sixth group was fed a partially hydrogenated soybean oil (HSOY) diet containing 8% linoleic acid plus 32% trans fatty acids, mainly 18:1, and a seventh group, 20% palm oil (PALM), with 10% linoleic acid and no trans fatty acids. As the level of linoleic acid in the HMO diets increased from 1.9% to 8.2%, the contents of (n-6) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in the phospholipids increased correspondingly. At this dietary level of linoleic acid, a plateau in (n-6) PUFA was reached that was not affected by further increase in dietary 18:2 (n-6) up to 14.5%. Compared with the HSOY- or PALM-fed rats, the plateau values of 20:4(n-6) were considerably lower and the contents of 18:2(n-6) higher in liver phosphatidylcholines (PC) and heart PC. Heart phosphatidylethanolamines (PE) on the contrary, had elevated contents of 20:4(n-6), but decreased 22:5(n-6) compared with the PALM group.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Evidence is presented that, as in cardiomyocytes, vascular endothelial cells use fatty acids, in addition to glucose, as a respiratory fuel. Attention is focused on the cardiac interstitium, lined by vascular cells and cardiomyocytes, which may be enriched with metabolic products from these cells. Also, certain proteins are present in the interstitial fluid (Qi) such as plasma proteins and fatty acid binding protein (FABP). However, the concentration of FABP is so low in Qi that albumin is more important to shuttle long chain fatty acids in the interstitial fluid between cardiomyocytes and the vascular compartment. Under hypoxic conditions (hypo)xanthine, lactate and fatty acids may be expected to accumulate in the interstitium, as well as proteins from adjacent cells, such as xanthine oxidase from endothelial cells. This enzyme, acting upon the elevated level of (hypo)xanthine, giving rise to O2-., may be involved in the damage of the ischaemic heart. The significance of the interstitium in ischaemia and in fibrosis following long standing cardiac lipidosis is briefly discussed, as well as the possible mechanisms involved in fatty acid transport in the heart.

Abstract
In rats receiving a fat diet (75% Altromin R and 25% olive oil) ad libitum for 15 hours, an orally administered dose of 500 mg/kg L-carnitine produces: an increase in serum carnitine and acetyl-carnitine levels; a decrease in serum triglyceride (TG) and free fatty acid (FFA) levels; a normalization of the heart and liver carnitine pattern; a reduction of myocardial neutral lipase (NL) activity, without affecting lipoprotein lipase (LPL) of the heart. Under these experimentally-induced conditions, L-carnitine stimulates the excretion of acyl groups as acyl-carnitines with the urine. Acylcarnitines are practically absent from the urine of control animals.

Abstract
Rat hearts were perfused for long periods in the presence of 14C-labeled amino acids. From these hearts, postheparin-effluent and a tissue homogenate containing lipoprotein lipase and neutral lipase, respectively, were derived. Lipolytic activity and 14C-labeled protein in both preparations were characterized by affinity chromatography, immunoprecipitation and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Lipase activity and 14C-labeled protein co-eluted from heparin-Sepharose 4B at 1.2 M NaCl and were inhibited and precipitated by preincubation with anti-lipoprotein lipase gamma-globulins. Gel electrophoresis of both preparations showed the presence of 14C-labeled protein with a molecular weight of 35 000. These data strongly suggest similarity between lipoprotein lipase and neutral lipase and their possible precursor-product relationship and indicate that during perfusion continuous synthesis, secretion and vascular binding of lipase molecules occur. Cycloheximide perfusion induced a dramatic decrease of lipoprotein lipase and neutral lipase activity, indicating a half-life of less than 90 min for both enzymes. Tunicamycin present during perfusion also induced a drop in lipoprotein lipase and tissue neutral lipase activity, indicating that glycosylation is necessary for secretion of lipoprotein lipase. Long-term perfusion of rat hearts in the presence of norepinephrine, glucagon or tyrosine leads to reciprocal alterations in lipoprotein lipase and neutral lipase activities, i.e., lipoprotein lipase activity increased and neutral lipase activity decreased, whereas total lipase activity (lipoprotein lipase + neutral lipase) remained unaltered. During perfusion in the presence of insulin, no net change in lipase activities was observed. Also, insulin did not affect the glucagon-induced inverse effects on either lipase activity. The reciprocal changes in lipase activities occurring during norepinephrine perfusion were hampered by colchicine and propranolol, pointing towards beta-receptor and microtubular mediation of tissue lipase processing and endothelial binding. Our data suggest that the tissue flux and vascular binding of lipase protein may be important sites of hormonal regulation of lipoprotein lipase homeostasis.

Abstract
The effects of feeding saturated and eucaloric unsaturated fat-rich diets on lipemia and insulinemia in female Brown Norway rats have been compared. The relative hyperlipemia in the unsaturated fat group at 8 a.m. has declined at 10 a.m., whereas the saturated fat group at 8 a.m. gives lower values than at 10 a.m. It suggests that saturated fat feeding requires a longer absorption period. The insulin levels in the unsaturated fat groups are higher at 8 a.m. than at 10 a.m., whereas insulin levels in the saturated fat group are higher at 10 a.m. than at 8 a.m. It also suggests retarded resorption of food in the saturated fat group. The relative hyperlipemia at 10 a.m. in the saturated fat group applies to triacylglycerol, free cholesterol, free fatty acids and particularly phosphatidylcholine. It was almost 50% higher than phosphatidylcholine in the unsaturated fat group and coincided with the accumulation of an apolipoprotein E-rich high density lipoprotein.

Abstract
The metabolism of [14-14C]erucic acid and [U-14C]palmitic acid has been investigated in adipocytes isolated from rat epididymal fat. The rate of acylation of [14C]erucic acid in cellular lipids and oxidation to CO2 and acid-soluble activity was ca. 1/3 of the rate with [14C]palmitic acid as substrate. A maximal incorporation of fatty acids in triacylglycerol was found at a fatty acid concentration of 0.8 mM in the medium, both with [14C]erucic acid and [14C]palmitic acid as substrate. Glucose added to the medium increased the esterification and decreased the oxidation of both fatty acids. No significant chain-shortening of [14C]erucic acid to shorter monoenes was identified in the fat cells. Increasing concentrations of unlabeled palmitic acid in the incubation medium markedly inhibited the esterification of [14C]erucic acid, whereas unlabeled erucic acid had little effect on the rate of esterification of [14C]palmitic acid.

Abstract
The rate of glycerol release from isolated, perfused rat hearts was used as an index for endogenous lipolysis. Pharmacological and metabolic interventions were performed in order to obtain information about the intracellular site of action and regulation of tissue triglyceride (TG) hydrolysis in heart. It proved that endogenous lipolysis probably is of lysosomal origin. The activity of tissue lipolysis is dependent on the amount of stored TG and on the contractile status of the heart and is subject to feedback inhibition by production of fatty acids. Evidence is presented that Ca2+ plays an important role in the regulation and hormonal modification of lipolysis since all mechanisms inducing alterations in Ca2+ homeostasis influence myocardial lipolysis. Our experimental data and current knowledge are discussed in the light of a new hypothesis which relates intracellular Ca2+ and the rate of fatty acid utilization to the activity (activities) of tissue lipase(s). It is proposed that inhibition of endogenous lipolysis may be the main mechanism of action of antiarrhythmic agents (lidocaine, quinidine, phenothiazines).

Abstract
1. The effects of dietary modification, including starvation, and of corticotropin injection on the activities of acyl-CoA synthetase, glycerol phosphate acyltransferase, dihydroxyacetone phosphate acyltransferase, phosphatidate phosphohydrolase, diacylglycerol acyltransferase and lipoprotein lipase were measured in adipose tissue. 2. Lipoprotein lipase activities in heart were increased and those in adipose tissue were decreased when rats were fed on diets enriched with corn oil or beef tallow rather than with sucrose or starch. The lipoprotein lipase activity was lower in the adipose tissue of rats fed on the sucrose rather than on the starch diet. 3. Rats fed on the beef tallow diet had slightly higher activities of the total glycerol phosphate acyltransferase in adipose tissue than did rats fed on the sucrose or starch diet. The diacylglycerol acyltransferase and the mitochondrial glycerol phosphate acyltransferase activities were higher for the rats fed on the tallow diet than for those fed on the corn-oil diet. 4. Starvation significantly decreased the activities of lipoprotein lipase (after 24 and 48 h), acyl-CoA synthetase (after 24 h) and of the mitochondrial glycerol phosphate acyltransferase and the N-ethylmaleimide-insensitive dihydroxyacetone phosphate acyltransferase (after 48 h) in adipose tissue. The activities of the microsomal glycerol phosphate acyltransferase, diacylglycerol acyltransferase and the soluble phosphatidate phosphohydrolase were not significantly changed after 24 or 48 h of starvation. 5. The activities of lipoprotein lipase and phosphatidate phosphohydrolase in adipose tissue were decreased 15 min after corticotropin was injected into rats during November to December. No statistically significant differences were found when these experiments were performed during March to September. These differences may be related to the seasonal variation in acute lipolytic responses. 6. These results are discussed in relation to the control of triacylglycerol synthesis and lipoprotein metabolism.

Abstract
The effect of acute fat feeding on the response of two fractions of lipoprotein lipase in heart was explored. In rats, previously fasted, lipoprotein lipase activity released into the perfusate by heparin increased approximately 50% 4 h after fat feeding. The lipase activity remaining in the heart tissue after heparin perfusion showed no significant difference. When rats maintained ad libitum were intubated with glucose 2 h before the fat dose, a relatively larger increase (5-10-fold) in the heparin-releasable lipase activity was observed. The capacity of these hearts to hydrolyze 14C-labeled chylomicrons was also increased 4-5-fold over the controls. Fat ingestion has been reported to elevated plasma corticosteroid levels in rats. When adrenalectomized rats were fed fat, no significant changes in the heparin-releasable lipase activity were observed Hydrocortisone and corticotropin treatment increased the heparin-releasable lipase activity to the same degree as observed with fat feeding. These data suggest that the increase in heart lipoprotein lipase activity following fat feeding is mediated via corticosteroids.

Abstract
Chylomicrons were isolated from the urine of rats after a surgical procedure in which the cysterna chyli was connected with the right ureter. The fatty acids of the chylomicrons served as a respiratory substrate for rat heart and not for rat small intestine during in vitro vascular perfusions. The reason for the absence of chylomicron utilization in small intestine was found to be the virtual absence of lipoprotein lipase from this organ. Both heart and small intestine oxidized oleate complexed to albumin. Increasing the molar ratio of fatty acid to albumin from 3 to 6 did not affect the rate of fatty acid oxidation in heart, but increased fatty acid oxidation in small intestine.
