Effects of dietary oil related to the toxic oil syndrome on the lipids of guinea pig liver microsomes.
The potential effects of oil specimens related to cases of toxic oil syndrome (TOS) on the liver microsomal lipid composition from guinea pigs were investigated. For four weeks, animals were fed diets supplemented with either "case oil" (oil related to cases of TOS) or "control oil" (oil unrelated to cases of TOS), either previously heated or not. Results were compared with those from guinea pigs fed the same diet with no oil. The administration of case oil produced changes in liver microsomal lipid composition. Statistically significant differences were also found between heated case and heated control oils. The cholesterol/phospholipid molar ratios and the major phospholipid class distribution were unaffected under these diet conditions. However, increases in the relative contents of linoleic and arachidonic acids and, simultaneously, a reduction in palmitic and palmitoleic acid levels were observed by diet effects. Heated oil administration decreased the saturated/unsaturated ratios in all cases. Our data suggest that changes observed in the fatty acid composition are attributable to the free fatty acid contents of administered oils. The toxic constituents of case oil seem to be able to alter the liver microsomal lipid composition.

Hematopoietic toxicity of linoleic acid anilide: importance of aniline.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of hydrolysis products of linoleic acid anilide (LAA), i.e., aniline and linoleic acid (LA), in the toxicity to the hemopoietic system, especially to the spleen. To achieve this, the parent compound (LAA) and its putative hydrolysis products, i.e., aniline or linoleic acid (LA), were given to male SD rats at equimolar doses (0.7 mmol/kg) in 0.25 ml mineral oil by gavage, daily, for 14 days. The controls received equal volumes of vehicle only. Five animals from each group were euthanized at Days 1, 7, and 28 following the last dose. At all time points, spleen weights increased in the LAA- and aniline-treated rats, but spleen to body weight ratios were increased only at Days 1 and 7 in these groups. No changes were observed in the LA-treated rats at any time point. RBC counts were decreased in the LAA and aniline groups at Days 1 and 7, whereas hemoglobin content was decreased by 20 and 13% in the LAA- and aniline-treated rats, respectively, only at Day 1. Methemoglobin content in the LAA and aniline groups also increased by 76 and 101%, respectively, at Day 1. Serum transaminases (AST and ALT) decreased in the LAA, aniline, and LA groups but the decreases were more consistent in the LA group. Serum IgA increased in the LAA and aniline groups only at Day 1. Splenic iron content was increased 381, 486, and 51% in the LAA-treated rats and 474, 491, and 58% in the aniline-treated rats at Days 1, 7, and 28, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) Topics: Anilides; Aniline Compounds; Animals; Blood Cell Count; Hematopoiesis; Hemolysis; Immunoglobulins; Iron; L-Lactate Dehydrogenase; Linoleic Acid; Linoleic Acids; Male; Organ Size; Rats; Rats, Sprague-Dawley; Spleen; Transaminases | 1995 |
