[Effect of prolactin on the phospholipid composition and cholesterol level in liver microsomes of the carp during acclimation to different temperatures].
The phospholipid composition, content of cholesterol and its esters in the carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) liver microsomes depend on the environmental temperature. The free cholesterol amount and cholesterol/phospholipids ratio in microsomes decrease after the lowering of temperature from 20 to 5 degrees C. The temperature elevation to 30 degrees C results in an increase of the cholesterol ester content. The relative proportions of phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, sphingomyelin, phosphatidyl inositol, phosphatidyl serine, phosphatidic acid increase with a significant decrease of the unidentified phospholipids amount at 30 degrees C. Prolactin affects the cholesterol content and phospholipid composition of liver microsomes. The hormone has a more pronounced effect at subextremal temperatures (5 and 30 degrees C). The actions of prolactin and temperature on the cholesterol content are similar. The hormone influence on the membrane phospholipid composition is opposite to the effect of the temperature acclimation. The possible role of prolactin in the temperature adaptation of the membrane lipids metabolism in poikilotherms is discussed.
