During maturation, rat renal papillary microsomes suffer a rearrangement in their fatty acid phospholipid composition. The most significant changes in total phospholipids are the increase in their content of the 20:4 and a decrease in the levels of 14:0, 16:0, 18:1, 22:6 and 20:3 fatty acids. The changes in total phospholipid fatty acid content are a reflection of the variations in the individual phospholipid composition. During this period, microsomal cholesterol, phospholipid, and protein concentrations present no variations. Steady state fluorescence anisotropy obtained by using TMA-DPH (see text) as a fluorescence probe denoted higher values for 70- versus 10-day-old microsomes. Using DPH as a probe, steady state fluorescence anisotropy was determined in whole microsomes, as well as in total lipid and phospholipid vesicles, from both 10- and 70-day-old papillary cells. No differences were detected in phospholipid and total lipid vesicles between days 10 and 70. On the other hand, 10-day-old microsomes appeared to be less fluid than adult microsomes. The results indicate that these structural changes in kidney membranes during development might affect protein-lipid interaction and, therefore, the activity of many membrane enzymes.

The membranes of human spermatozoa contain an extremely high concentration of polyunsaturated fatty acids and are therefore susceptible to lipid peroxidation damage. The aim of this study was to retrospectively determine the association between the lipid peroxidation levels of washed spermatozoa, as indicated by thiobarbituric-acid-reactive substance concentration, and: (a) semen quality evaluated by basic routine, biochemical, cytological and quantitative ultramorphological analyses; (b) IVF fertilization rate. Semen samples from 45 male partners of couples who had been referred for IVF treatment due to a female infertility factor were evaluated for quality as well as for thiobarbituric-acid-reactive substance concentrations. The latter were found to have a negative correlation with total sperm count, semen volume, zinc/fructose ratio, and the integrity of sperm acrosome and axonema. It was suggested that lipid peroxidation has a deleterious effect on the ultramorphological status of the sperm cells and, thereby, on the male fertilization potential. The content of the seminal fluid, about 30% of which is produced by the prostate, may protect spermatozoa from this destructive process. A negative correlation was also found between thiobarbituric-acid-reactive substance concentrations and IVF fertilization rate. When the patients were subdivided into fertilizing (fertilization rate > 0%) and nonfertilizing (fertilization rate = 0%) subgroups (n = 33 and n = 12, respectively), the former exhibited significantly lower thiobarbituric-acid-reactive substance concentrations than the latter. A new IVF fertilization index based on the lipid peroxidation level was established. This index had a predictive power of 93% (94% sensitivity and 92% specificity). The clinical value of this index should be further verified.

Comparisons of the effects of temperature on the liver fatty acid binding proteins from hibernator and nonhibernator mammals.

Hibernating mammals rely heavily on lipid metabolism to supply energy during hibernation. We wondered if the fatty acid binding protein from a hibernator responded to temperature differently than that from a nonhibernator. We found that the Kd for oleate of the liver fatty acid binding protein (1.5 microM) isolated from ground squirrel (Spermophilus richardsonii) was temperature insensitive over 5-37 degrees C, while the rat liver fatty acid binding protein was affected with the Kd at 37 degrees C being about half (0.8 microM) that found at lower temperatures. This same trend was observed when comparing the specificity of various fatty acids of differing chain length and degree of unsaturation for the two proteins at 5 and 37 degrees C. At the lower temperature, ground squirrel protein bound long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, particularly linoleate and linolenate, at least as well as at the higher temperature and matched requirements for these fatty acids in the diet. The most common long-chain fatty acid, palmitate, was a more effective ligand for ground squirrel liver fatty acid binding protein at 5 degrees C than at 37 degrees C, with the opposite occurring in the eutherm. Rat protein was clearly not adapted to function optimally at temperatures lower than the animal's body temperature.

Structural heterogeneity of the binding sites of HSA for phenyl-groups and medium-chain fatty acids. Demonstration of equilibrium between different binding conformations.
Lund M, Bjerrum OJ, Bjerrum MJ.
Department of Chemistry, Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University, Frederiksberg, Denmark.
A new facet of the very heterogeneous albumin molecule is described. Chromatography at pH 6-9 of human serum albumin (HSA) on a phenyl-sepharose column separates it into two nonconvertible conformations that are, in turn, in equilibrium with its binding and nonbinding forms. The hydrophobic interaction of HSA with phenyl-sepharose depends on ionic strength, pH, and time of contact with the immobilized ligand. Binding as a function of pH shows a minimum at pH 6.5, and the binding profile at pH 7-9 fits the titration of a weak monoprotic acid with a pKa of 7.3. There was no observable difference in the CD spectra or the masses of the two forms. The equilibrium between the albumin forms was examined under defined conditions and cannot be explained by a simple two-state model. Thus rechromatography of the nonbinding fraction derived from a sample in which 50% of the protein was originally retained resulted only in 10-20% bound protein. Correspondingly only 70-80% of the binding form was retained. A model explaining the observations can be derived if two species, I and II, exist in the solution, both being in an equilibrium with a binding and a nonbinding form, but in which I is not in equilibrium with II. The rate of conversion between the binding and nonbinding conformations was determined to be faster than 15 s at room temperature.

Loss of hair changes the appearance of a person, and the identity of the person in social context to a certain extent.
Hair growth is a complex biological process, which has not yet been completely understood. A multitude of therapeutic measures, including drugs, surgery, and suppelements have been made available, and used. However, due to the diversity of the problems underlying hair loss, there is no single solution for all hair loss cases. Most of chemical drugs and hair transplantation surgeries are not free from varying degrees of undesirable side effects on health.
Hair Million is an alternative solution to hair loss problems. Albeit only anecdotally, it has demonstrated efficacy in
the improvement for age-related hair thinning and hair loss for a significant fraction of people who take it
as recommended. We do not know the mechanisms of action as to how Hair Million works to help stop hair loss, and promote hair growth. We only know by
anecdotal observations. There has been no clinical trials nor placebo controlled statistical analysis.
