The triacylglycerols of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) and of chylomicrons were analyzed in the fasting and postabsorptive states from normolipemic subjects and patients with Frederickson's Type II hyperlipoproteinemia, who subsisted on free choice diets, standard diets excluding lard, or were given a breakfast enriched in lard. The VLDL and chylomicrons were obtained by conventional ultracentrifugation, and the triacylglycerols were isolated by thin-layer chromatography (TLC). Representative sn-1,2-, sn-2-3- and sn-1,3-diacylglycerols were generated by partial Grignard degradation of the triacylglycerols and a stereospecific hydrolysis by phospholipase C of the mixed sn-1,2(2,3)-diacyl phosphatidylcholines prepared as intermediates. Representative sn-2-acylglycerols were obtained by hydrolysis with pancreatic lipase. Positional distribution of the fatty acids was established by subtracting in turn the fatty acid composition of the sn-2-position from the fatty acid composition of the sn-1,2- and sn-2,3-diacylglycerols. The molecular association of the fatty acids in the diacylglycerol moieties was determined by gas-liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry (GC/MS) of the tertiary-butyldimethylsilyl (t-BDMS) ethers. The molecular association of the fatty acids in the triacylglycerols was determined by 1-random 2-random 3-random calculation following experimental validation of the distribution. The results confirm a marked asymmetry in the positional distribution of the fatty acids in all triacylglycerol samples, with the palmitic acid predominantly in the sn-1-position, the unsaturated acids about equally divided between the sn-2- and sn-3-positions, and the stearic acid divided about equally between the sn-1- and sn-3-positions. The overall structure of the VLDL and chylomicron triacylglycerols from patients and control subjects was characterized by a non-correlative distribution of fatty acids under all dietary conditions.
