Popis: | Most studies aimed at exploring the molecular and cellular properties of plasma membranes in neural tissues make use of cell lines. However, cell membrane lipid composition of cell lines is notably different from that of brain tissues where they presumably derive from. Using septal-derived SN56 cells and hippocampal-derived HT22 cells, we demonstrated that cell lines exhibit lower contents of saturated (18:0) and long polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA; 20:4 n − 6 and especially 22:6 n − 3), as well as higher monounsaturated fatty acid contents (mainly 18:1 n − 9), compared to mouse brain. Also, cell lines exhibited higher contents of sterol esters and lower contents of cholesterol and phospholipids, especially phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylserine. We have also evaluated the effects of different ( n − 3/ n − 6) PUFA enrichments on fatty acid and phospholipid contents in these cell lines. Our results show that enrichment of culture medium with 22:6 n − 3 and 20:4 n − 6 in a 70/30 proportion during 48 h, using fat-free bovine serum albumin as vehicle, successfully readjusted fatty acid profiles in cell line-polar lipids to values found in natural nerve cells. Interestingly, no differences in cell survival were observed upon enrichment. The generalization of these methodologies would allow a more feasible adaptation of cellular models to the study of in vivo nerve physiology. |
