| Abstract | OBJECTIVE: To determine whether DHA suppresses oxidative stress induced endothelial cell calcium influx by altering lipid composition and TRPC1 distribution in membrane rafts. METHODS: Endothelial cells (EC) were pretreated with DHA or stearic acid, then incubated for another 3h with media containing H(2)O(2). Membrane lipid rafts were isolated using the discontinuous sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation method. Intracellular calcium was detected with laser scanning confocal microscope. TRPC1 protein in membrane fractions was detected by immunoblotting. Membrane fatty acids compositions were analyzed by gas chromatography; raft cholesterol level was assayed by an Amplex Red Cholesterol Assay kit, and DAG concentration was quantified by a DAG kinase assay. RESULTS: DHA significantly reduced oxidative stress induced calcium influx; pretreated with DHA the n-3 PUFAs were significantly increased in raft fractions, as well as saturated myristic acid, palmitic acid content of membrane rafts in EC; while the stearic acid, monounsaturated oleic acid and cis-oleic acid were decreased. Incubation with DHA also significantly reduced the amount of SM and cholesterol levels in the raft. Interestingly, we fractioned plasma membrane subcellular compartments and discovered that certain amounts of TRPC1 existed in detergent-resistant plasma membrane fractions of EC. After DHA treatment, TRPC1 was partly displaced from lipid raft to detergent-soluble membrane fractions. CONCLUSIONS: DHA significantly reduces oxidative stress induced endothelial calcium influx, this effect might be associated with, at least in part, altered raft lipid environment, and suppresses TRPC1-mediated calcium signaling pathway by partially displacing TRPC1 from membrane caveolar lipid rafts. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
