Popis: | Quantitative determinations have been made on the cerebrosides isolated from aortas of cholesterol-fed and normal rabbits, and mature and young pigeons. The fatty acid distributions of these cerebrosides were determined. Cerebroside concentration was higher in pigeons than in rabbits and higher in the animals expected to have atherosclerosis. Comparing supposedly atherosclerotic animals to normal animals, the atherosclerotic animals generally had more unsaturated fatty acids and more 18:0 and 18:1 as compared to 16:0 and 16:1. These trends are consistent with fatty acid data from human aorta. Pigeon data were more similar to human data than were the rabbit data. |
