Abstract:
Transport of subcutaneously injected [1- 〈 sup 〉 14 〈 /sup 〉 C]-stearic acid through the blood-brain barrier is compared with endogenous biosynthesis (within the brain) during postnatal brain development in mice. The uptake is very important during glial cell multiplication and myelination; endogenous microsomal synthesis is most active during myelination, soluble 〈 i 〉 de novo 〈 /i 〉 mechanism is prominent during cell multiplication (mitochondrial systems are not directly related to these events). A parallel is drawn between myelin fatty acids, microsomal synthesis and uptake from the blood.
