Abstract:
:The fatty acid (FA) compositions of liver and skeletal muscle structural lipids, overall phospholipids and phosphatidylcholine, and triglycerides (TG) were determined in the hereditary hypertriglyceridemic (HTG) rat, a nonobese animal model of the insulin resistance syndrome. Four groups of HTG rats and four groups of control animals were fed equal-energy diets for two weeks: basal (B), high-sucrose (HS), or fish oil-supplemented basal (BFO) or high-sucrose (HSFO) diets. In the liver of HTG rats, a decrease of n-6 long-chain polyunsaturated FA (PUFA), especially in 20:4n-6, in comparison with controls was found. Moreover, a concomitant accumulation of 18:2n-6 in structural lipids was observed. These differences were more pronounced in liver than in skeletal muscle. HS feeding raised the proportion of 18:1n-9 and decreased 18:2n-6 in lipid fractions. In both tissues and in both strains, the amounts of long-chain n-3 PUFA, as well as the level of total C20-22 PUFA, went up after fish oil feeding. However, the effects were somewhat less pronounced in the HTG rats. The increase in n-3 PUFA occurred mainly at the expense of reduced levels of 18:2n-6 in structural lipids and of 18:1n-9 in triglycerides. These changes were associated, in companion studies reported in this volume, with improved insulin action in HTG rats. In conclusion, the FA composition in lipid subclasses of HTG rats differs significantly from the controls mainly in liver structural lipids, suggesting the impairment of PUFA desaturation. Dietary change effected a similar modulation of FA profile across both strains, with fish oil increasing the levels of long-chain PUFA toward control values in the NTG rats. The HTG rat thus provides an interesting animal model for the study of impaired fatty acid metabolism.
