The effect of diacylglycerol on glucose release was studied by using 1,2-dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol ($diC_8$), a cell permeable diacylglycerol, in perfused rat liver. The glucose release was increased by $diC_8(50\;{\mu}M$), and the effect was depended on calcium ions. The increment of glucose release by $diC_8(50\;{\mu}M$) was inhibited by indomethacin ($50\;{\mu}M$); the amount of glucose release was almost the same with that of control group. Arachidonic acid($200\;{\mu}M$) also increased glucose release and the release was inhibited by indomethacin. There was no synergistic effect on glucose release by the combination of $diC_8(50\;{\mu}M$) and phenylephrine($10\;{\mu}M$).

The EtOAc extract of Youngia koidzumiana significantly inhibited the diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) from rat liver microsomes. Bioactivity-guided fractionation led to the isolation of nine compounds, the structures of which were established using physicochemical and spectral data. Of the isolated compounds, oleanolic acid (2), methyl ursolate (7) and corosolic aicd (8) inhibited DGAT, with $IC_{50}$ values of 31.7, 26.4, and $44.3{\mu}M$, respectively. However, sesquit-erpenoids showed only weak inhibitory effects toward DGAT.

The present study was undetertaken to demonstrate whether or not angiotensin II activates a phopholipase D in rabbit kidney proximal tubule cells. By measuring the formation of [$^3H$] phosphatidic acid and [$^3H$]diacylglycerol. This result suggests that some phosphatidic acid seems to be formed directly from phosphatidylcholin by the action of phopholipase D, not from the action of diacylglycerol kinase on the diacylglycerol. In addition the other mechanisms by which phospholipase D is activated was examined. We have found that phospholipase D was activited by extracellular calium ion. It has also been shown that angiotensin II may activate phosphoilpase D through protein kinase C-independent pathway.

The inhibitory activity of tanshinones from Salvia miltiorrhiza was tested on rat liver diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT). Cryptotanshinone (1) and 15,16-dihydrotanshinone I (3) exhibited potent DGAT inhibitory activities dose-dependently with $IC_{50}$ values of $10.5 {\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml{\;}and{\;}11.1{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml$. However, tanshinone IIA (2) and tanshinone I (4) showed very weak inhibition ($IC_{50}{\;}value:{\;}>{\;}250{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/ml$). A dihydrofuran moiety was seemed to be responsible for the stronger inhibitory activity

Diacylglycerol Kinase (DGK)는 E. coli 및 진핵세포에서의 신호전달에 관여하며, 또한 미생물에서 생리적 자극에 따라 다른 발현 양상을 보이는 것으로 밝혀져 있다. Bacillus subtilis에서 이 유전자에 대한 환경에서의 자극 신호들, 즉 pH 변화, 삼투압의 변화 및 온도의 변화에 따른 발현양상을 연구하였다. 이미 동정된 dgk locus의 KpnI-HindIII의 0.45 kb의 DNA fragment를 probe로 하여 Dot blot, Northern blot analysis를 통해 발현량을 조사해 본 결과 dgk 유전자는 pH변화, 삼투압의 변화 및 온도의 변화에 대응하여 발현되는 유전자임을 알 수 있었다. 특히 낮은 pH, 고 삼투압, 및 저온에서 dgk 유전자의 발현량이 많아짐을 확인 할 수 있었다. Northern hybridization에서 약 2.5kb의 mRNA가 관찰되었다. dgk gene의 ORF size는 약 0.4 kb로 관찰된 transcript size와는 일치하지 않았다. 따라서 Streptococcus mutans의 dgk gene과 마찬가지로 B. subtilis의 dgk 유전자도 polycistronic mRNA로 발현되는 것을 추정할 수 있었으며, 염색체상의 dgk gene에서 상류의 ORF2까지의 크기가 약 2.5 kb로 관찰된 mRNA size와 동일하였다. dgk gene 상류의 ORF2영역의 0.6 kb의 DNA fragment를 probe로 하여 northern blot hybridization을 수행한 결과, 2.5 kb의 mRNA가 관찰되었으며 발현되는 형태도 dgk probe를 이용한 결과와 동일하였다. 따라서 dgk gene은 상류부위의 ORF2 gene과 operon을 형성하여 polycistronic mRNA로 전사되는 것으로 판단된다.

The objective of this study was to observe the effect of dietary calcium(Ca) level on colonic mucosal levels of cell proliferation, 1, 2-diacylglycerol(DAG), TXB2, PGE2 and phospholipid fatty acid composition which have been known as biomarkers for colon cancer. One hundred male Sprague Dawley rats, at 7 weeks of age, were divided into two fat type groups. Each group of which was further divided into two Ca level groups. Each rt was intramuscularly injected with 1, 2,-dimenthylhydrazine(DMH) for 6 weeks (total dose of 180mg/kg body weight) and simultaneously fed one of four experimental diets containing 15% dietary fat(corn oil or perilla oil )and 0.3% or 1.0% Ca by weight for 20 weeks. Compared to corn oil, perilla oil significantly reduced cell proliferation by decreasing labeling index, proliferating zone, crypt length in colonic mucosa and colonic mucosa and colonic mucosal levels of DAG, TXB2 . PGE2 and phospolipid (PL) arachidonic acid distribution. The effect of Ca on biomarketrs was different depending on the type of dietary fat comsumed . Ca effect of Ca on biomarkers was different depending on the type of dietary fat comsumed. Ca effect was not significantly shown in the PO group, but it was significant in the CO group in which high Ca(1.0%) decreased the levels of levels of PL-C20 : 4(%), DAG and PGE2 . However , high Ca supplementation had shown only the trends of improving cell proliferation. Overall , high dietary Ca significantly reduced cell proliferation by inhibiting the synthesis of eicosanoid and DAG with reduced distribution of PL-C20 : 4 , which may have resulted in lower activation of PKC through reduced signal transduction. Since a high level of dietary Ca was more effective in reducing the risk factor against colon cancer in corn oil fed rats, it could be suggested that a higher amount of dietary Ca be consumed , especially when more vegetable oil rich in linoleic acid is included in the diet.

The objective of this study was to investigate the utilization of diacylglycerol (DAG) as a new dietary ingredient replacing fish oil in feed for juvenile olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus. Fish oil based control diet (CON) was prepared and four other diets were formulated by replacing 50% of the fish oil in CON with one of five DAG: DAGL (1,3-lauryl glycerol) or DAGP (1,3-palmityl glycerol) in low or high concentrations (designated as DAGLL, DAGLH, DAGPL and DAGPH). Another diet was prepared replacing 100% of the fish oil in CON with a 1:1 mixture (DAGLP) of DAGL and DAGP. Olive flounder (13.4 g) were fed to apparent satiation, twice a day, for 12 weeks. Following the feeding trials, no significant differences were observed in growth performance, blood parameters and non-specific immune responses between CON and any of the DAG groups. Polyunsaturated fatty acid levels were not significantly affected by the inclusion of DAGs. Thus, DAGL or DAGP could be used to replace up to 50% of fish oil in fish feed without reducing growth performance, health or innate immunity. The replacement of up to 100% of dietary fish oil in olive flounder feed by DAGLP is also feasible.

The aim of this study was to prepare diacylglycerol (DAG) by enzymatic glycerolysis of lard. The effects of reaction parameters such as lipase type, reaction temperature, enzyme amount, substrate molar ratio (lard/glycerol), reaction time, and magnetic stirring speed were investigated. Lipozyme RMIM was found to be a more active biocatalyst than Novozym 435, and the optimal reaction conditions were 14:100 (W/W) of enzyme to lard substrate ratio, 1:1 of lard to glycerol molar ratio, and 500 rpm magnetic stirring speed. The reaction mixture was first incubated at $65^{\circ}C$ for 2 h and then transferred to $45^{\circ}C$ for 8 h. At the optimum reaction conditions, the conversion rate of triacylglycerol (TAG) and the content of DAG in the reaction mixture reached 76.26% and 61.76%, respectively, and the DAG content in purified glycerolized lard was 82.03% by molecular distillation. The distribution of fatty acids and Fourier transform infrared spectra in glycerolized lard samples were similar to those in lard samples. The results revealed that enzymatic glycerolysis and molecular distillation can be used to prepare more highly purified DAG from lard.

The structures of molecular species of galactolipids, such as monogalactosyl diacylglycerol (MGDG) and digalactosyl diacylglycerol (DGDG), isolated from wheat flour have been investigated using negative-ion electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry interfaced with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). According to the result of HPLC analysis, MGDG and DGDG were found to consist of mixtures of five and four molecular species, respectively. The galactolipids have been also analyzed to determine their fatty acid compositions, using HPLC/ESI-MS combined with in-source (or cone voltage) fragmentation. HPLC/ ESI-MS is very useful for one-step analysis of mixtures of galactolipids with a small sample quantity. Especially, the carboxylate anions produced in in-source fragmentations of the negative-ion of each component separated by HPLC provide valuable information on the composition of its fatty acyl chains.
