Article Synopsis
  • A new method is introduced to extract mitochondrial proteolipids using a chloroform-methanol-water mixture, which separates the proteolipids from phospholipids.
  • The purified mitochondrial proteolipids are stable complexes of phospholipids and low molecular weight proteins, which are sensitive to acidic conditions.
  • Analysis shows that the phospholipid/protein ratio is about 6, and the composition of the extracted proteolipids matches that of mitochondrial phospholipids, revealing unique nonbilayer structures in reconstituted liposomes.

The lipid composition of fluorescent vibrios, V. eltor and nonagglutinating vibrios has been studied. In the fraction of polar lipids phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol and cardiolipin and in the fraction of neutral lipids monoglycerides, free fatty acids, diglycerides, triglycerides, sterol esters have been identified.

The authors examined the ratios of blood free polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), such as 20:3n6, 20:4n6, 20:5n3, and 22:6n3, which are substrates and inhibitors of synthesis of thromboxane A2 and prostacyclins that regulate both normal blood fluidity, and platelet adhesion and primary thrombogenesis. The object of the study was plasma from healthy subjects and 4 groups of patients with cardiovascular diseases: 1) large myocardial infarction; 2) resting and exercise-induced angina pectoris; 3) large myocardial infarction; and 4) recurrent myocardial infarction. The levels of plasma free PUFA were measured by gas chromatography.

The pattern of nonesterified fatty acid consumption was assessed on the basis of the arteriovenous difference during the atrial stimulation test in patients with neurocirculatory dystonia and coronary heart disease. NEFA extraction coefficients were shown to be basically different in these two groups of patients, possible evidence of disturbed lipid metabolism in coronary disease.
