1. Rats were given diets containing (% dietary energy): 46 arachis oil (AO), 36 partially-hydrogenated arachis oil (HAO) + 10 AO, 36 partially-hydrogenated marine oil (HMO) + 10 AO, or 46 of a combination of rape-seed oils high and low in erucic acid (RSO + LERSO).2. In the liver microsomes the content of arachidonic acid (20:4ω6) was reduced inthe groups given HAO + AO and HMO + AO.3. The rates of Δ6-desaturation of linoleic acid into γ-linolenic acid (18:3ω6) and of Δ5-desaturation of dihomo-γ-linolenic acid into arachidonic acid were studied in vitro at two substrate levels: a high substrate level reflecting maximal microsomal desaturase activity in rat liver and a low substrate level reflecting desaturase activity under physiological conditions.4. Dietary HAO, rich in 18:1 isomers, suppressed the Δ6-desaturase activity butnot the Δ5-desaturase activity. Dietary HMO, rich in 18:1, 20:1 and 22:1 isomers, reduced both Δ6- and Δ5-desaturase activities.

Camptothecin Analogues

Background: E2 (Camptothecin - 20 (S) - O- glycine - deoxycholic acid), and G2 (Camptothecin - 20 (S) - O - acetate - deoxycholic acid) are two novel bile acid-derived camptothecin analogues by introducing deoxycholic acid in 20-position of CPT(camptothecin) with greater anticancer activity and lower systematic toxicity in vivo. Objective: We aimed to investigate the metabolism of E2 and G2 by Rat Liver Microsomes (RLM). Methods: Phase Ⅰ and Phase Ⅱ metabolism of E2 and G2 in rat liver microsomes were performed respectively, and the mixed incubation of phase I and phase Ⅱ metabolism of E2 and G2 was also processed. Metabolites were identified by liquid chromatographic/mass spectrometry. Results: The results showed that phase I metabolism was the major biotransformation route for both E2 and G2. The isoenzyme involved in their metabolism had some difference. The intrinsic clearance of G2 was 174.7mL/min. mg protein, more than three times of that of E2 (51.3 mL/min . mg protein), indicating a greater metabolism stability of E2. 10 metabolites of E2 and 14 metabolites of G2 were detected, including phase I metabolites (mainly via hydroxylations and hydrolysis) and their further glucuronidation products. Conclusion: These findings suggested that E2 and G2 have similar biotransformation pathways except some difference in the hydrolysis ability of the ester bond and amino bond from the parent compounds, which may result in the diversity of their metabolism stability and responsible CYPs(Cytochrome P450 proteins).
