/EXPL THER/ The antitumor activity of some fatty acids was studied in vivo using Ehrlich ascites and solid carcinomas implanted into Swiss albino mice of Strain ddY. Suspensions of the fatty acids in Tween 80 and distilled water were admin 24 hr after tumor implantation and were continued for 5 consecutive days. Doses of 8 mg/mouse/day of myristic aicd were effective inhibitors against Ehrlich ascites tumor, more than doubling the survival time of treated versus control mice.

EXPTL THER: MYRISTIC ACID WAS AMONG 11 FATTY ACIDS TESTED AGAINST EHRLICH ASCITES CARCINOMA. EACH AGENT WAS ADMIN TO MICE BY INTRAPERITONEAL INJECTION AT THE DOSE OF 400 MG/KG/DAY 5 TIMES & THE EFFECT WAS EVALUATED WITH TOTAL PACKED CELL VOLUME RATIO ON THE 7TH DAY AFTER THE TUMOR IMPLANTATION. MYRISTIC ACID WAS HIGHLY EFFECTIVE AGAINST THE TUMOR.

/EXP THER/ Liposomes consisting of dicetyl-phosphate, cholesterol, lecithin and stearic or myristic or oleic acid, exert a protective effect for mice against experimental infection by Salmonella typhimurium, and delay both the onset and mortality B16 melanoma in these animals. Liposomes labelled with 3H-myristic acid were used as probes in the spleen and liver. ... the treatment schedule rather than route of administration of liposomes, is important. The results show that in order to induce protection, preventive treatment must start at least three days before. Longer treatments do not increase the degree of protection, and treatments started at the same time as, or following experimental infection or tumor transplantation, have no effect.

/EXPTL THER/ ... The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of moderate intakes of myristic acid (MA) associated with recommended intake of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) on lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activity in humans. Two experimental diets were tested for 3 months each. Diet 1-MA 1.2% of total energy (TE) and ALA 0.9% TE, diet 2-MA 1.8% and ALA 0.9% TE; a control diet (MA 1.2% and ALA 0.4% TE) was given 3 months before diet 1 and diet 2. The endogenous activity of LCAT was determined at completion of each diet. Compared with the control diet (13.2 +/- 3.1 umol CE/(L x h)), LCAT activity increased significantly (P < 0.001) with diet 1 (24.2 +/- 3.6 umol CE/(L x h)) and diet 2 (33.3 +/- 7.4 micromol CE/(L x h)); the increase observed with diet 2 was significantly (P < 0.001) greater than that due to diet 1. These results suggest that ALA (from rapeseed oil, mainly in sn-2 position) and MA (from dairy fat, mainly in sn-2 position) favor LCAT activity, by respective increases of 83 and 38%. When they are supplied together, a complementary effect was observed (average increase of 152%). Moreover, these observations were associated with a decrease of the ratio of total to HDL-cholesterol. In conclusion, /the/results suggest that moderate supply of MA (1.8% TE) associated with the recommended intake of ALA (0.9% TE) contributes to improve LCAT activity.

IN NORMAL RATS, HIGHER RADIOACTIVITY WAS FOUND IN HEART, LIVER, SPLEEN & ADRENALS 2 HR AFTER ADMIN OF PALMITIC ACID THAN AFTER ADMIN OF MYRISTIC ACID. IN GRANULOMA POUCH-BEARING RATS, RADIOACTIVITY SHOWED HIGHER DISTRIBUTION IN ADRENALS & POUCH EXUDATE 2 HR AFTER PALMITIC ACID ADMIN, COMPARED TO THOSE GIVEN MYRISTIC ACID. RADIOACTIVITY IN THE POUCH WALL WAS GREATER IN RATS GIVEN MYRISTIC ACID.

Oleic, Palmitic, Myristic, and Stearic Acids are primarily transported via the lymphatic system, and Lauric Acid is transported by the lymphatic and (as a free fatty acid) portal systems.

... The specific hypothesis tested was that free fatty acid association with CD36, a class B scavenger receptor, induces the activation of endothelial nitric-oxide synthase (eNOS). A human microvascular endothelial cell line and a transfected Chinese hamster ovary cell system were used to determine which free fatty acids stimulate eNOS. Surprisingly, only myristic acid, and to a lesser extent palmitic acid, stimulated eNOS. The stimulation of eNOS was dose- and time-dependent. Competition experiments with other free fatty acids and with a CD36-blocking antibody demonstrated that the effects of myristic acid on eNOS required association with CD36. Further mechanistic studies demonstrated that the effects of myristic acid on eNOS function were not dependent on PI 3-kinase, Akt kinase, or calcium. Pharmacological studies and dominant negative constructs were used to demonstrate that myristic acid/CD36 stimulation of eNOS activity was dependent on the activation of AMP kinase. These data demonstrate an unexpected link among myristic acid, CD36, AMP kinase, and eNOS activity.
