Abstract

Incorporation of thia fatty acids and their effects on the fatty acid composition in phospholipids has been investigated in 7800 C1 hepatoma cells and cultured hepatocytes. 3-Thia fatty acids of chain lengths from dodecyl-to hexadecyl-thioacetic acid were incorporated into phospholipids during a 3-day incubation. Longer and shorter 3-thia fatty acids were barely detectable. Tetradecylthioacetic acid, 3-thia stearate, and their Δ9- ...
