  • THP-1 (generously provided by Dr P Guyre, Dartmouth Medical School), Jurkat (ATCC), and 293 cell lines were cultured in RPMI complete medium (CM), consisting of RPMI 1640 with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum, 0.1 ml of sodium pyruvate, 2.0 mmol/l of L-glutamine, 25 mmol/l of 1 M HEPES (N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N'-2-ethanesulfonic acid), 0.1 mmol/l of nonessential amino acids, 0.25 μg/ml of amphotericin, 50 μg/ml gentamicin (all from BioWhittaker, Walkersville, MD, USA) and 5 × 10 -5M 2-mercaptoethanol (Sigma, St Louis, MO, USA).

  • Pyruvate conversion into lactate was measured in 0.2 M Tris-HCl (pH 7.2) buffer in the presence of sodium pyruvate (0.

  • It appears likely that α-ketobutyrate is generated instead by the 'pyruvate' pathway in which citramalate is generated as the initial intermediate.

  • Growth medium: NaCl 118, KCl 2.4, creatine 5.7, glucose 5, sodium pyruvate 5, 100× MEM vitamins 10 ml/L, penicillin 100 U/ml, streptomycin 100 μg/ml, 50× MEM essential amino acids 20 ml/L, 100× MEM non-essential amino acids 10 ml/L, HEPES 20, pH 7.4 (with NaOH).

  • These same conclusions regarding energy expenditure were reached in experiments assessing enzymatic activities, and transcriptional changes in rat liver using Northern blots, where fish oil feeding: increased palmitoyl CoA mitochondrial and peroxisomal oxidation rate; increased Cpt1, Cpt2, Δ 3, Δ 2-enoyl CoA isomerase, and Ech1 expression and activity; and decreased expression and activity of FA synthase, malic enzyme, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and pyruvate kinase, compared to palm and/or safflower oil feeding [ 93 ] . Likewise, in rat white retroperitoneal adipose tissue, fish oil feeding also decreased Fasn expression [ 94 ] . Intriguingly, the hormone leptin, which also acts through SREBP-1 and PPARα, affected many transcripts similarly to LC-PUFA ( e.g. , leptin decreased Gpam and Apoa4 transcripts; and up regulated Ech1, mitochondrial Hmgcs2, and Cyp4a14 transcripts [ 95 ] .
