Poultry meat production as a functional food with a voluntary n-6 and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids ratio

Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2007
We studied the effect of different levels of linseed oils made either of the flax cultivar Atalante with a high content of α-linolenic acid (612 g/kg) or of the cultivar Lola with a predominating content of linoleic acid (708 g/kg) in a chicken diet upon

Eicosapentaenoic acid induces DNA demethylation in carcinoma cells through a TET1-dependent mechanism [PDF]

, 2018
In cancer cells, global genomic hypomethylation is found together with localized hypermethylation of CpG islands within the promoters and regulatory regions of silenced tumor suppressor genes.

Dietary α-linolenic acid reduces COX-2 expression and induces apoptosis of hepatoma cells

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
Fatty acid synthetase (FAS) is overexpressed in various tumor tissues, and its inhibition and/or malonyl-CoA accumulation have been correlated to apoptosis of tumor cells.

Polyunsaturated fatty acids influence offspring sex ratio in cows [PDF]

, 2018
Dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) can influence fertility in farm animals. Some evidence in mice and sheep have suggested that PUFAs may influence offspring sex ratio, which may have significant value for cattle production.

Ractopamine concentration on the lipid profile of swine fat and meat

Ciência Rural, 2018
: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of ractopamine concentrations on swine fat and meat lipid profiles. Ninety finishing barrows, initially weighing 71.9±4.4kg, were distributed in a randomized block design in three ractopamine ...

Fatty acid profiles of the main lipid classes of green seaweeds from fish pond aquaculture [PDF]

, 2017
The lipid composition of five species of green seaweeds (Chaetomorpha linum, Rhizoclonium riparium, Ulva intestinalis, Ulva lactuca, and Ulva prolifera) grown in fish pond aquaculture systems was studied.

Integrated transcriptomics and metabolomics elucidate the molecular mechanism underlying post-preservation pollen viability alterations in Paeonia lactiflora

BMC Plant Biology
A significant viability decline is frequent in preserved pollen, so exploring the mechanism of viability variations is of great significance. In this study, fresh pollen of Paeonia lactiflora was used as the experimental material to comparatively analyze

Reversibility of n-3 fatty acid deficiency-induced changes in dopaminergic neurotransmission in rats:critical role of developmental stage

Journal of Lipid Research, 2002
Previous investigations have shown that the lipid composition of cerebral membranes and dopaminergic neurotransmission are changed under chronic α-linolenic acid diet deficiency in the rat.

Physiological compartmental analysis of α-linolenic acid metabolism in adult humans

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001
A physiological compartmental model of α-linolenic acid metabolism was derived from the plasma concentration-time curves for d5-18:3n-3, d5-20:5n-3, d5-22:5n-3, and d5-22:6n-3 in eight healthy subjects.

Studies relating to Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid (PUFA) Supplementation and Fertility in Cattle [PDF]

, 2007
End of project reportReproductive inefficiency has a significant impact on the economic performance of both dairy and beef herds, particularly in seasonal calving systems. Nutrition plays a fundamental role in reproduction. Furthermore, there is emerging
