Bevezetés: A transzmetilezés térszerkezet-módosító szubsztitúciós folyamat. Feladata az élő szervezetekben, többek között, a fehérje- és génműködés szabályozása. A táplálékláncon keresztül szervezetbe juttatott metildonor vegyületek hasznosulása, illetve a könnyen mobilizálható metilpool analitikai módszerekkel nyomon követhető. Célkitűzés: A szerzők célul tűzték ki néhány növényi (búza, bab, cékla, káposzta) és állati (baromfi- és nyúlmáj) eredetű táplálék könnyen mobilizálható metilcsoportjainak koncentrációmérését, a transzmetilezés és a redox-homeosztázis kapcsolatának vizsgálatát baromfi- és nyúlmájban, valamint e paraméterek tanulmányozását kísérletes zsírmájban, patkányban. Módszer: Patkánykísérletben a tápot koleszterin, napraforgóolaj és kólsav eltérő koncentrációival dúsították. A könnyen mobilizálható metilcsoportok meghatározása túlnyomásos rétegkromatográfiás módszerrel, a hidrogéndonor-aktivitás mérése 1,1-difenil-2-pikrilhidrazil stabil szabad gyök alkalmazásával, spektrofotometriásan történt. Eredmények: A vizsgált növényi minták közül a legjelentősebb metilpoollal a babmagok rendelkeztek. A baromfimáj a nyúlmájnál szignifikánsan nagyobb könnyen mobilizálható metilcsoportszintet és hidrogéndonor-aktivitást mutatott. Patkányokban, súlyos zsírmájban csökkent a hidrogéndonor-aktivitás, és szignifikánsan csökkent a könnyen mobilizálható metilcsoportszint. Következtetések: Az eredmények felhívják a figyelmet a táplálkozás jelentőségére, különösen az elhízással összefüggő megbetegedések kapcsán. Orv. Hetil., 2013, 154, 1180–1187.
