Popis: The phospholipid composition of mitochondria, microsomes and plasma membranes from liver and MC-29 hepatoma from White Leghorn chickens has been investigated. It was established that all mitochondria and microsome phospholipid fractions obtained from MC-29 hepatoma are increased strongly compared to those from liver. The sphingomyelin augmentation was particularly great. In hepatoma plasma membranes only the sphingomyelin quantity was increased. Sphingomyelin- and phosphatidylcholine-exchange activities were observed in avian liver for the first time. These two activities were increased in MC-29 hepatoma cells. Three phospholipid-exchange proteins have been established in chicken liver 105000 × g supernatant. One of them specifically transports phosphatidylcholine, the second one is non-specific for phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin, and the third one is specific only for sphingomyelin. In hepatoma cells only a non-specific phosphatidylcholine- and sphingomyelin-exchange protein was found.
