...Tore Curstedt; Henry L. Halliday; Christian P. Speer Surfactant deficiency was identified as the cause of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) as long ago as 1959. Trials of surfactant replacement in the 1960s were unsuccessful because the preparations used contained only phospholipids and they were...

... by lipoproteins in the developing fetus. Explants of fetal jejunum (14–20 weeks) were maintained in serum-free organ culture for 42 h with [ 14 C]-oleate. Esterified lipids extracted from the tissue showed an abundance of phospholipids (PL; 54–77%), while those harvested from the medium displayed a predominance...

...Dominique Haumont; Claudia Rössle; Anne Clercx; Marianne Spehl; Armand Biver; Myriam Richelle; Yvon A. Carpentier Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is characterized by an immature surfactant phospholipid pattern. We aimed to study the evolution of surfactant phospholipids over a 6-day...

...Veronica L. Kahane; Norma Sterin-Speziale We have examined the phospholipid content and metabolism in renal papilla, medulla and cortex in 10- to 70-day-old rats. No changes in papillary and medullary phospholipids with an increase in cortical phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were...

...John H. Shand; Raymond C. Noble The incorporation of [1- 14 C]-linoleic acid and [1- 14 C]-arachidonic acid into the lipids of ovine placental homogenate was studied. Both fatty acids were incorporated mainly into the phospholipid fraction with much lower levels being found in the diacylglycerols...

...Michal Palkovič; Nina Škottová; Anna Hoštacká In young rats reared with their mothers, a gradual increase of serum cholesterol, triglycerides, phospholipids and total lipids was found between the 7th and the 18th to 22nd postnatal day. Then the concentrations of lipids gradually decrease. Early...

...J.O. Rundell; J.G. Lecce The incorporation of radioprecursors into intestinal epithelial cell proteins and phospholipids was studied to assess the role of protein and phospholipid synthesis and/or turnover in the cessation of the absorption of macromolecules (closure). Radiophosphorus incorporation...

...J.H. Shand; R.C. Noble; J.H. Moore A ‘protected’ polyunsaturated fatty acid supplement was fed to ewes during the last 8 weeks of pregnancy. The effect of this dietary supplement on the essential fatty acid composition of the liver phospholipids and associated changes in the liver Δ9- and Δ6...

...Niklas Simberg; Jaakko Hartiala; Eino Hietanen The ability of the lungs to release fatty acids from circulating triglycerides or lipoproteins for its own phospholipid synthesis may be one of the factors which limit the rate of surfactant formation. Therefore, the development of the lipolytic...

...W. Karp; H. Sprecher; A. Robertson The biosynthesis of phospholipids in human placenta was studied by using either tissue slices or subcellular fractions. When radioactive glycerol was incubated with tissue slices the glycerol was incorporated primarily into triglycerides and choline...

...D. Ricquier; P. Hemon Gas-liquid chromatography analysis of triglyceride (TG) and phospholipid (PL) fatty acids was performed in several tissues of the rat during fetal and neonatal development and the effect of cretinism investigated. Liver and brown fat had a low TG content in the fetus, the TG...

... dispose of a lipolytic activity comparable to that of the adult animal. (3) The amount of FFA esterified to fetal triglycerides is relatively greater than the amount of FFA esterified to fetal phospholipids. This finding reflects a certain accumulation of fat during the last days of pregnancy. 16 9...
