  • Title: Altered lipid composition of adipose tissue in human muscular dystrophy.
    Author: Banerjee AK, Goyle S.
    Journal: Biochem Med; 1983 Oct; 30(2):246-52. PubMed ID: 6651791.
    Abstract:
    Lipids of subcutaneous adipose tissue from normal and dystrophic human samples were investigated with particular reference to the fatty acid composition of neutral lipids and phospholipids. The free fatty acid pattern did not show much change. Triglyceride, which together with cholesterol composed most of the neutral lipid fraction, showed significant changes in fatty acid composition by gas-liquid chromatography (GLC). There was a decrease in the total phospholipids. Analysis of the levels of individual phospholipids, however, showed an increase in sphingomyelin and ethanolamine phosphoglyceride contents. Fatty acid composition of the different phospholipid classes analyzed by GLC showed significant changes.
