To investigate the relationships between maternal, umbilical cord and piglet fatty acid status, multiparous sows (six per diet) were fed on diets containing supplements (30 g/kg) of either soyabean oil or tuna oil for the last 21 d of pregnancy. The proportions of most fatty acids differed between diets: in particular, the tuna-oil-containing diet supplied more 22:6n-3 and less 18:2n-6 fatty acids than the soyabean-oil-containing diet. Maternal plasma fatty acid concentrations (mg/l) were greater than those in umbilical plasma and 20:4n-6 and 22:6n-3 fatty acids were present in higher proportions (g/100 g fatty acids) in umbilical than maternal plasma. Feeding tuna oil increased the proportionate amounts (g/100 g fatty acids) of total n-3 fatty acids (particularly 22:6n-3) in umbilical cord, plasma and piglet tissues compared with feeding soyabean oil: in contrast, the proportion of 20:4n-6 was decreased by feeding tuna oil. Changes in piglet fatty acid proportions as a result of oil feeding were not influenced by piglet weight. While proportions of the long-chain n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids in piglet liver, spleen and reproductive tract (ovaries plus uterus of the female, testes of the male) correlated well with those of umbilical plasma, those in brain and retina were poorly correlated. Therefore umbilical plasma cannot be used to predict the fatty acid status of piglet brain.

A 2 × 2 design was employed to examine the effect of cellular growth state and medium serum concentration on potential indices of n − 6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) status in human skin fibroblasts. The cells were cultured either as nonmultiplying cell monolayers or as medium-density, log-phase multiplying cells. An interaction of cellular growth state and medium serum concentration influenced the accumulation of 20:3(n − 9), but not 22:3(n − 9), in the cellular phospholipids. The 20:3(n − 9)/20:4(n − 6) ratio was the most sensitive index of n − 6 PUFA status; however, the ratio was significantly affected by cellular growth state. The 22:3(n − 9)/22:4(n − 6) ratio appears to be an index of n − 6 PUFA status in fibroblasts that is not significantly affected by the growth state of cells.Key words: n − 9 polyunsaturated fatty acids, fibroblasts, cell culture.
