Updated project metadata. Myristic acid, the 14-carbon saturated fatty acid (C14:0), is usually associated with negative consequences for human health, and in particular its consumption is correlated to an increased cardiovascular disease risk. Since it is a little abundant into the cells, its specific properties and functional roles have not been fully described. The aim of this study was to explore the cell response to this fatty acid to help explaining clinical findings on the relationship between C14:0 and cardiovascular disease. Primary murine hepatocytes were used as a model to investigate the hepatic response to C14:0 in a proteomic approach. C14:0 treatment (250 µM) of primary murine hepatocytes confirmed that myristic acid induces lipid droplet accumulation as shown by cellular imaging and elevated perilipin 2 levels on cellular proteome level. The functionally enriched pathways were involved in protein synthesis, transport and degradation, protein depalmitoylation, unfolded protein response, lipid and cholesterol metabolism, mitophagy in response to depolarization, and cell cell adhesion. Our data provide for the first time quantitative proteomic data regarding C14:0 in primary murine hepatocytes (M1 in present dataset) and contribute to the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms through which this fatty acid can cause adverse health effects.
