Transcriptional regulation of milk lipid synthesis by exogenous C16:0 and C18 fatty acids in bovine mammary epithelial cells

摘要

The objective of this study was to examine the effects of removing one fatty acid from a combination of long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) on milk lipogenesis in bovine mammary epithelial cells. The incubation concentration of LCFA was determined, and 100 mu mol L-1 of C16:0, 5 mu mol L-1 of C18:0, 100 mu mol L-1 of cis-9 C18:1, 25 mu mol L-1 of n-6 C18:2, and 1.2 mu mol L-1 of n-3 C18:3 were used in the study. Treatments were C16:0, C18:0, C18:1, C18:2, and C18:3 combinations as control; control absent of C16:0 as A-C16:0; control absent of C18:0 as A-C18:0; control absent of C18:1 as A-C18:1; control absent of C18:2 as A-C18:2; control absent of C18:3 as A-C18:3. Results showed that compared with control, fatty acid synthetase expression was reduced by A-C18:0 and A-C18:1. Palmitic acid decreased expression of lipoprotein lipase. Compared with control, the expression of stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase-1 and cluster of differentiation 36 was reduced by all treatments. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-a expression was downregulated by A-C16:0, A-C18:0, A-C18:1, and A-C18:2. Sterol regulatory element binding factor-1 was decreased when treated with A-C18:0, A-C18:1, and A-C18:2. Cells lack of 18-carbon fatty acid synthesized lower amount of intracellular triglyceride compared with control.
