title: [Modification of the lipid composition of neuroblastoma C1300 cells using liposomes].
abstract: An essential increase in the total cholesterol content with a significant growth in the level of its esters was observed in neuroblastoma C1300 cells differentiated by means of 5'-bromodesoxyuridine and incubated for 1 h with lecithin-cholesterol liposomes (1:1 mol/mol). These cells also displayed an increased amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the composition of lecithin molecules and the appearance of lysolicethin as well. Incubation of the cells with lecithin liposomes was accompanied by a decrease in the content of cholincholesterol in the cells. In this case the level of cholesterol esters decreased to a greater extent than the level of free cholesterol. In lecithin molecules of these cells there occurred a relative increase of saturated fatty acids. The cells can retain viability and compensate changes caused by cholesterol excess during their incubation with lecithin-cholesterol liposome for 60-90 min. A longer incubation with liposomes results in a sharp drop of cell viability.
