The lipid composition of muscle cells during development. 1977

R Boland, and T Chyn, and D Roufa, and E Reyes, and A Martonosi

Developmental changes in the phospholipid, cholesterol, and fatty acid composition of chicken pectoralis muscle cells were analyzed during development in vivo and in tissue culture. The phospholipid composition of muscle cells showed only minor changes during in vivo or in vitro development but there were significant alterations in fatty acid composition. During in vivo development between the 12th and 22nd days the concentration of palmitate and arachidonate decreased with increase in linoleate. In cultured muscle cells the fatty acid composition changes with surprising plasticity depending on the fatty acid supply. Compensatory changes were observed in the chain length and unsaturation of several fatty acids, aimed presumably at maintaining the physical properties of the lipid phase relatively constant.

D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008081 Liposomes Artificial, single or multilaminar vesicles (made from lecithins or other lipids) that are used for the delivery of a variety of biological molecules or molecular complexes to cells, for example, drug delivery and gene transfer. They are also used to study membranes and membrane proteins.

D009132 Muscles Contractile tissue that produces movement in animals. Muscle Tissue,Muscle,Muscle Tissues,Tissue, Muscle,Tissues, Muscle
D010743 Phospholipids Lipids containing one or more phosphate groups, particularly those derived from either glycerol (phosphoglycerides see GLYCEROPHOSPHOLIPIDS) or sphingosine (SPHINGOLIPIDS). They are polar lipids that are of great importance for the structure and function of cell membranes and are the most abundant of membrane lipids, although not stored in large amounts in the system. Phosphatides,Phospholipid
D010750 Phosphoproteins Phosphoprotein
D002642 Chick Embryo The developmental entity of a fertilized chicken egg (ZYGOTE). The developmental process begins about 24 h before the egg is laid at the BLASTODISC, a small whitish spot on the surface of the EGG YOLK. After 21 days of incubation, the embryo is fully developed before hatching. Embryo, Chick,Chick Embryos,Embryos, Chick
D003470 Culture Media Any liquid or solid preparation made specifically for the growth, storage, or transport of microorganisms or other types of cells. The variety of media that exist allow for the culturing of specific microorganisms and cell types, such as differential media, selective media, test media, and defined media. Solid media consist of liquid media that have been solidified with an agent such as AGAR or GELATIN. Media, Culture
D005227 Fatty Acids Organic, monobasic acids derived from hydrocarbons by the equivalent of oxidation of a methyl group to an alcohol, aldehyde, and then acid. Fatty acids are saturated and unsaturated (FATTY ACIDS, UNSATURATED).

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
