Long-term fatty acid modification of endothelial cells: implications for arachidonic acid distribution in phospholipid classes.

Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were cultured in various fatty acid-modified media until equilibrium conditions were reached (7-8 days). The effects on the fatty acid composition of phospholipid classes and on the metabolism of arachidonic acid (20:4(n-6)) were studied. The results showed tha...
