Identification of the pathway of alpha-oxidation of cerebronic acid in peroxisomes.

Cerebronic acid (2-hydroxytetracosanoic acid), an alpha-hydroxy very long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) and a component of cerebrosides and sulfatides, is unique to nervous tissues. Studies were carried out to identify the pathway and the subcellular site involved in the oxidation of cerebronic acid. The results from these studies revealed that cerebronic acid was catabolized by alpha-oxidation to CO2 and tricosanoic acid (23:0). Studies with subcellular fractions indicated that cerebronic acid was alpha-oxidized in fractions having particulate bound catalase and enzyme systems for the beta-oxidation of VLCFA (e.g., lignoceric acid), suggesting peroxisomes as the subcellular organelle responsible for alpha-oxidation of cerebronic acid. Etomoxir, an inhibitor of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation, had no effect on cerebronic acid alpha-oxidation. Further, cerebronic acid oxidation was found to be dependent on the presence of NAD+ but not FAD, NADPH, ATP, Mg2+, or CoASH. Intraorganellar localization studies indicated that the enzyme system for the alpha-oxidation of cerebronic acid was associated with the peroxisomal limiting membranes. Studies on cultured fibroblasts from normal subjects and patients with peroxisomal disorders indicated an impairment of alpha-oxidation of cerebronic acid in cell lines that lack peroxisomes [e.g., Zellweger syndrome (ZS)]. On the other hand, alpha-oxidation of cerebronic acid was found to be normal in cell lines from X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, adult Refsum disease, and rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata. Our results clearly demonstrate that alpha-oxidation of alpha-hydroxy VLCFA (cerebronic acid) is a peroxisomal function and that this oxidation is impaired in ZS. Furthermore, this alpha-oxidation enzyme system is distinct from the one for the alpha-oxidation of beta-carbon branched-chain fatty acids (e.g., phytanic acid).

Comparison of silver-ion high-performance liquid chromatographic quantification of free and methylated conjugated linoleic acids.

Silver-ion high-performance liquid chromatography was used to fractionate a mixture of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers (as the free fatty acids, CLAFFA) in commercial CLA mixtures and biological samples. Due to the unchanged retention mechanism, it was assumed that the elution order of the isomers remained the same as that of methyl esters separated on the same column. The most abundant isomers, cis/trans 10, 12-18:2 and cis/trans 9,11-18:2, were separated better as free acids on a single column than in the methyl ester form. Quantification of the CLA standard was used as the reference profile to evaluate different methylation methods commonly used to prepare CLA methyl esters for quantitation. Acid-and base-catalyzed derivatization methods resulted in CLA intraisomerization and losses in total conjugated dienes content. Acid (HCl and BF3) methylations significantly elevated the level of trans,trans isomers and significantly reduced the cis/trans isomers. Base methylation, tetramethylguanidine/methanol, resulted in loss of trans,trans isomers, and a substantial loss of total underivatized conjugated dienes. Other catalysts such as the trimethylsilyldiazomethane produced additional peaks of unidentified artifacts. The analysis of CLAFFA appears to provide more accurate quantification of CLA isomers in commercial and biological samples.

Cancer models utilize massive doses of carcinogen so that investigations of anticarcinogenic effects require equally large doses. Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA), predominately consumed in dairy products, are thought to be anticarcinogenic. Our objective was to naturally produce a CLA-enhanced butter for use in biomedical studies with animal models. To do this, we fed cows a low forage diet supplemented with sun-flower oil. This resulted in increases in content of CLA of milk fat, but the markedly elevated concentrations were transient and declined over a 3-wk period. By collecting milk fat over the first few days on the diet (d 7 to 10) and selecting cows with the greatest CLA concentrations, we were able to produce a butter in which CLA content was enhanced sevenfold over control butter (41 vs. 5 mg/g of fatty acids) and the cis-9, trans-11 isomer predominated (91%). Thus, butter produced by this method can be used to investigate the preventive role of CLA in natural foods with biomedical models of different types of cancer. Furthermore, the butter allows examination of the other beneficial health effects of CLA reported with animal models.

Milk identification of different species: 13C-NMR spectroscopy of triacylglycerols from cows and buffaloes' milks.

Triacylglycerols from cows and buffaloes' milk fat were investigated by 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. By the addition of pure triacylglycerols standards, we identified the resonances of both milk fats, and the peaks were used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of acyl groups. Multivariate analysis treatment of triacylglycerols distribution and composition parameters enabled us to identify milk. This study shows that NMR can safely be used to quantitate milk fatty acid content, providing unique information for milk identification of different animal species.

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.
