Low density lipoprotein-activated lysolecithin acylation by human plasma lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase. Identity of lysolecithin acyltransferase and lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase.
There is in normal plasma an enzyme activity which converts labeled lysolecithin to lecithin by an energy-independent low density lipoprotein-activated pathway. Studies were undertaken to compare the identity of this enzyme with lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase. During purification of the enzyme by ultracentrifugation and by chromatography on high density lipoprotein affinity column, DEAE-S...
متن کاملLysolecithin metabolism by human platelets.
Human platelets incubated with 32p lysolecithin convert this compound to platelet lecithin and the water-soluble product glycerylphosphorylcholine. Lecithin synthesis from lysolecithin by intact platelets has a pH optimum of 9, whereas platelet homogenates show a pH optimum of 7.5 for the same reaction. Conversion of lysolecithin to platelet lecithin takes place by direct acylation of lysolecit...
متن کاملMechanism of bactericidal activity of lysolecithin and its biological implication.
Lysolecithin exhibited bactericidal effect on mycobacteria and staphylococci, but not on E. coli. The effect on staphylococci was manifested shortly after exposure, but that on mycobacteria was of the delayed type. The mycobactericidal activity was dependent on the fatty acid moiety of the chemical structure reflecting the cytotoxicity of the free form. The activity on staphylococci was not, ho...
متن کاملTransport of lysolecithin by albumin in human and rat plasma.
Lysolecithin comprises 9.6 and 21.5% of the phospholipids of the plasma of man and rat, respectively. Ultracentrifugal and gel filtration studies showed that the major portion of the lysolecithin is not found together with the other phospholipids in the plasma lipoproteins. By zone electrophoresis, gel filtration, and ammonium sulfate fractionation, it was found that lysolecithin was consistent...
متن کاملInhibition and potentiation of platelet function by lysolecithin.
The effects of lysolecithin (LPC) on aggregation, serotonin release, shape, and lysis of rabbit, pig, or human platelets in platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or Tyrode albumin solution were examined during prolonged incubation. LPC added to citrated or heparinized PRP from humans or rabbits at a final concentration above 100 muM caused instantaneous inhibition of platelet aggregation induced by adenos...
