Transport of the fatty acids composing the phosphatidylcholines and sphingomyelins of the low- and very high-density lipoproteins in the blood plasma in myocardial hypertrophy

A comparative analysis of the fatty acid composition of phosphatidylcholines (PC) and sphingomyelins (SP) of lipoproteins (LP) of low and very low density was performed in the blood plasma of Eskimos (indigenous population of the Chukot Peninsula) in myocardial hypertrophy and in the control group a...

Summary:A comparative analysis of the fatty acid composition of phosphatidylcholines (PC) and sphingomyelins (SP) of lipoproteins (LP) of low and very low density was performed in the blood plasma of Eskimos (indigenous population of the Chukot Peninsula) in myocardial hypertrophy and in the control group as well as in the control group of Muscovites. Some characteristic features of the fatty acid composition of low density LP PC and SP were revealed in Eskimos in myocardial hypertrophy. The role of changes in the transport of fatty acids of low density LP PC and SP of the blood plasma in the myocyte membrane liquidity as well as in the synthesis of biologically active prostacyclin revealed in myocardial hypertrophy was discussed.
