  • Title: Very long-chain fatty acids in neutral lipids and glycerophospholipids of adrenoleukodystrophy-cultured skin fibroblasts.

    Journal: J Neurol Sci; 1985 Dec; 71(2-3):301-6. PubMed ID: 4087027.
    Abstract:
    Three major lipid fractions, i.e., cholesterol ester, triacylglycerol and glycerophospholipids, were investigated cultured fibroblasts to clarify whether very long-chain fatty acids were accumulated or not. Abnormally accumulated very long-chain fatty acids were confirmed in all three lipid fractions. Our results support our previous report that there may be a generalized abnormal metabolism of very long-chain fatty acids in adrenoleukodystrophy.
