Arachidonic Acid and the Brain [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Nutrition, 2008
Kinetic methods in unanesthetized rodents have shown that turnover rates of arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in brain membrane phospholipids are rapid and energy consuming and that phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) and acyl-CoA synthetase enzymes that regulate turnover are specific for one or the other PUFA.

Effects of Fatty Acids on Intracellular [Ca2+], Mitochondrial Uncoupling and Apoptosis in Rat Pachytene Spermatocytes and Round Spermatids. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The aim of this work was to explore the ability of free arachidonic acid, palmitic acid and the unsaturated fatty acids oleic acid and docosahexaenoic acid to modify calcium homeostasis and mitochondrial function in rat pachytene spermatocytes and round ...

Interactions of saturated, n-6 and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids to modulate arachidonic acid metabolism.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1990
Anti-thrombotic effects of omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids are believed to be due to their ability to reduce arachidonic acid levels. Therefore, weanling rats were fed n-3 acids in the form of linseed oil (18:3n-3) or fish oil (containing 20:5n-3 and 22:6n-3 ...

Effects of unsaturated fatty acids (Arachidonic/Oleic Acids) on stability and structural properties of Calprotectin using molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation approach.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Calprotectin is a heterodimeric protein complex with two subunits called S100A8/A9. The protein has an essential role in inflammation process and various human diseases.

Arachidonic Acid in Human Milk [PDF]

open access: yesNutrients, 2020
Breastfeeding is universally recommended as the optimal choice of infant feeding and consequently human milk has been extensively investigated to unravel its unique nutrient profile. The human milk lipid composition is unique and supplies specifically long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs), in particular, arachidonic acid (ARA, 20:4n–6) and ...

The essentiality of arachidonic acid and docosahexaenoic acid [PDF]

open access: yesProstaglandins, Leukotrienes and Essential Fatty Acids, 2009
The purpose of this review is to correlate the clinical finding that patients receiving parenteral nutrition with a fish oil-based lipid emulsion do not develop essential fatty acid deficiency (EFAD) with an experimental murine model, thus showing that arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are likely to be the essential fatty acids ...

The influence of exogenous cholesterol on hepatic lipid composition of the rat*

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1962
Rats were fed diets containing cottonseed oil and/or cholesterol, cholic acid, methyl esters of long-chain fatty acids, and tocopherol. Livers, hearts, and aortas were examined histologically; liver lipids were fractionated by silicic acid chromatography;

Mast Cells, Astrocytes, Arachidonic Acid: Do They Play a Role in Depression?

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Evidence support that brain membrane fatty acids play a crucial role in psychopathologies such as depression and anxiety disorders. Although the pathogenesis of depression is not still defined, drugs commonly used to reduce arachidonic turnover in the ...

Metabolic disorder and intestinal microflora dysbiosis in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2023
Objective Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is a rare acquired immune-mediated neuropathy. Although microbial infection is potentially a contributing factor, a causative link between CIDP and microbial infection remains ...
