Resumo
Lipid composition was studied in liver and brain of normal (+/+), heterozygote (ob/+) and obese (ob/ob) mice. It was found that this genetic defect is expressed differently in the lipid composition of these organs. Cholesterol is increased in liver but strongly decreased in brain of obese animals. Phosphatide fatty acid composition is modified in liver and not in brain. In contrast, phospholipids and total ganglioside sialic acid are affected similarly in both organs. Although clinically normal, heterozygote (ob/+) mice already show an abnormal lipid composition in liver and brain. The potential importance of these results is presented.
