Presentation Transcript

  1. LIPIDS Definition & its Classification

  2. Classification of lipids (examples)

  3. Functions of Lipids • Energy provision as ATP • Building block • Thermal Insulator • Specialized functions • Messenger/Signaling • Bone strength • Visual pigment • Antioxidant • Electron Transport Chain

  4. Simple fat have simple function • They are neutral lipid • Storage in adipose tissues • Body contouring • Insulation • Store of energy

  5. Complex/Compound Lipids • Esters of fatty acids with alcohol, containing non-lipid Group (PO4, Nitrogenous base, or sugar) • Compound Lipids are Further Classified as: • PHOSPHO-LIPIDS • GLYCO-LIPIDS • PROTEO-LIPIDS (LIPO-PROTEINS) • SULPHO-LIPIDS

  6. PHOSPHOLIPIDS • Glycerophospholipids(Backbone is Glycerol) • Phosphatidic acid is the parent compound for all • PO4 with additional group form Polar head. • 2 Fatty acids form non polar tail. • Amphipathic molecule

  7. Types of Glycero-phospholipids • depending upon the type of head alcohol Common GPL are • Phosphotidyl Choline. (Lecithin) • Present in membrane, plasma, & bile • Forms component of cell membrane • Decrease surface tension of aqueous later of lung • Detergent property solubilize cholesterol in bile (Gall stone) • LCAT esterify cholesterol in HDL • Phosphotidyl Ethanol amine.(Cephalin) • Brain lipid

  8. Types of Glycero-phospholipids • Phosphotidyl Serine. Apoptosis • Phosphotidyl Inositol • Precursor of Second Messengers • Phosphatidyl Glycerol. • Cardiolipin. • MitochondrialMembranes

  9. Sphingolipids (backbone is Sphingosine) • Ceramide is the parent compound for spingolipid. • Amino alcohol (sphingosine) • Fatty acid

  10. GLYCOLIPIDS

  11. Ceramides + Sugar residue (β-glycosidic bond) • Cerebrosides Glucosylcerebrosides Ceramides + Glucose Non neuronal accumilate in Liver (GAUCHER’S Disease) Galactosylcerebrosides Ceramides + Galactose Neuronal tissues- White matter Sulfatides Ceramides + Galactose + Sulfate

  12. Ceramides + Sugar residue (β-glycosidic bond) • Gangliosides • Ceramides + branched oligosaccharides • Have acidic sugar (Sialic Acid/NANA) • Glc-Gal-GalNA-Gal ………………….GM1 • Glc-Gal-GalNA-Gal ………………….GM2 • Glc-Gal- ………………….GM3 NANA NANA NANA

  13. Oligosaccharide present on outer membrane for receptor of GP hormones • Gangliosides present in brain & liver • TAY SACH’s disease occur B/o deposition of gangliosides in brain (hexoseaminidase)

  14. BRAIN LIPIDS • Caphalin • Sphingomyelin • Cerebresides (Galactosyl) • Gangliosides • Cholesterol • 35% of the dry weight of brain

  15. III-LIPOPROTEINS • Clusters of lipids associated with proteins that serve as transport vehicles for lipids in the lymph and blood

  16. Lipoproteins • Distinguished by size and density • Each contains different kinds and amounts of lipids and proteins • The more lipid, the lower the density • The more protein, the higher the density

  17. Lipoproteins • Chylomicrons • VLDL – Very low density lipoprotein • IDL – Intermediate density lipoprotein • LDL – Low density lipoprotein • HDL – High density lipoprotein

  18. Properties of Plasma Lipoproteins

  19. Lipids (%) in Plasma Lipoproteins

  20. Lipoproteins and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk • LDL is positively associated with CVD • HDL is negatively associated with CVD

  21. Cardiovascular disease (CVD)Cardio = heart, & Vascular = blood vessels • General term for all diseases of the heart and blood vessels • Atherosclerosis is the main cause of CVD • Atherosclerosis leads to blockage of blood supply to the heart, damage occurs (coronary heart disease, CHD)

  22. LDL and atherosclerosis

  23. Recommended blood lipids • Total cholesterol: <200 mg/dL (WHO-<150) • LDL cholesterol: <130 mg/dL • HDL cholesterol: >35 mg/dL • Triglycerides: <200 mg/dL

  24. Effect of lipids on lipoproteins and CVD risk • Dietary cholesterol • No effect on blood cholesterol • Saturated fats • Raise LDL • Trans fats • Raise LDL and lower HDL • Monounsaturated fats • Lowers LDL • Omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fats • Lowers blood cholesterol

  25. What is Cholesterol? • Steroids are derived lipids in which the basic or principle structure is CyclopentanoPerhydroPhenanthrneNucleus • (CPPP Nucleus) (Steroid Nucleus) • Examples: • Steroid hormones, Vitamin D etc.

  26. Derived lipid (cholesterol) • 27-C cyclic isoprene unit, derived from acetyl CoA • Phenenthrene nucleus • Cyclopentane ring • OH gp at 3rd C • Double bond at 5th position • Aliphatic chain at C-17 • Methyl gp at C18,19.

  27. Cholesterol is white waxy compound Widely distributed in almost all the tissues of the body especially in brain, other nervous tissues, adrenals and liver.

  28. Desirable Blood Cholesterol Levels • Total cholesterol Less than 200 mg/dL • LDL ("bad" cholesterol) Less than 100 mg/dL • HDL ("good" cholesterol) 40 mg/DL or higher • Triglycerides Less than 150 mg/dL

  29. Important biologicalfunctions Of Cholesterol • One of the important members of membrane lipids. • Precursor of Steroids & Vitamin D. • Forms Adrenal hormones • Forms Bile acids and salts • Relation with various diseases like: • Hypertension • Diabetes Mellitus • Thyroid Diseases.

  30. Eicosanoids • Porstanoids • Prostaglandins (PGs) • Prostacyclins (PGIs) • Thromboxanes (TXs) • Leukotrienes (LTs) • Lipoxins (LXs)

  31. Eicosanoids Derivatives of the Arachidonic acid • Physiologically they are considered to act as local hormones. • Many of these compounds have profound effects on smooth muscles, inflammation, blood clotting and many other important biological functions.

  32. Prostaglandins Belong to a group of 20 Carbon fatty acids containing a 5 Carbon ring in their structure • They are of interest because of their extraordinary physiological and biochemical effects on: • Smooth muscles of many organs like blood vessels, uterus, kidney, stomach. • Adipose tissues. • On the basis of difference in the chemical structure various types of prostaglandins are described, such as Pgα, Pgβ,Pg and so on.

  33. Different types of prostaglandins have variety of effects on different tissues • Role on adipose tissues. • Stimulation of inflammation. • Role on kidney. • On cardiovascular system. • On respiratory system. • Effects on platelet aggregation. • On gastrointestinal tract. • On female reproductive system. • On central nervous system.

  34. Clinical Application of Prostaglandins in Medical Practice • To facilitate the labor or therapeutic abortion. • Contraception. • Asthma. • Management of blood pressure. • Gastric ulcer. • Prostaglandin inhibitors commonly used as Analgesics (Pain killers)
