Aortic tissue of adult New-Zealand male and female white rabbits was studied. After thin-layer chromatography of cholesterol esters, triglycerides, free fatty acids, phosphatidylethanolamines and phosphatidylcholines, their fatty acid compositions are determined. Phosphatidylcholines and phosphatidylethanolamines contain important quantities of arachidonic acid. The level of linoleic acid in these phospholipids is higher in male animals than in female. Conversely the level of arachidonic acid is higher in females than in males.
对成年新西兰雄性和雌性白兔的主动脉组织进行了研究。在对胆固醇酯、甘油三酯、游离脂肪酸、磷脂酰乙醇胺和磷脂酰胆碱进行薄层色谱分析后,测定了它们的脂肪酸组成。磷脂酰胆碱和磷脂酰乙醇胺含有大量的花生四烯酸。这些磷脂中亚油酸的水平在雄性动物中高于雌性。相反,花生四烯酸的水平在雌性中高于雄性。
