Replacement of Dietary Saturated Fat by PUFA-Rich Pumpkin Seed Oil Attenuates Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Atherosclerosis Development, with Additional Health Effects of Virgin over Refined Oil. [PDF]
As dietary saturated fatty acids are associated with metabolic and cardiovascular disease, a potentially interesting strategy to reduce disease risk is modification of the quality of fat consumed.

Endocannabinoid signaling in the gut mediates preference for dietary unsaturated fats
Dietary fat exerts a potent stimulatory effect on feeding. This effect is mediated, at least in part, by a cephalic mechanism that involves recruitment of the vagus nerve and subsequent activation of endocannabinoid signaling in the gut.

The effects of unsaturated dietary fats on absorption, excretion, synthesis, and distribution of cholesterol in man [PDF]
Cholesterol balance studies were carried out in 11 patients with various types of hyperlipoproteinemia to determine the mechanism by which unsaturated fats lower plasma cholesterol. Unsaturated fats produced no increase in fecal endogenous neutral steroids in 10 of 11 patients and no decrease in absorption of exogenous cholesterol in 5 patients who ...

Effect of synthetic dietary triglycerides: a novel research paradigm for nutrigenomics. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The effect of dietary fats on human health and disease are likely mediated by changes in gene expression. Several transcription factors have been shown to respond to fatty acids, including SREBP-1c, NF-kappaB, RXRs, LXRs, FXR, HNF4alpha, and ...

Fatty acids from diet and microbiota regulate energy metabolism [version 1; referees: 2 approved]
A high-fat diet and elevated levels of free fatty acids are known risk factors for metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and visceral obesity. Although these disease associations are well established, it is unclear how different dietary fats change the

Background A moderate intake of unsaturated fatty acids (UFA) is associated positively with improved insulin resistance. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the dietary intake of unsaturated fatty acids/total fats (UFA/TF ...

Dietary saturated and unsaturated fats as determinants of blood pressure and vascular function [PDF]
The amount and type of dietary fat have long been associated with the risk of CVD. Arterial stiffness and endothelial dysfunction are important risk factors in the aetiology of CHD. A range of methods exists to assess vascular function that may be used in nutritional science, including clinic and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, pulse wave ...

Influence of Dietary Saturated and Unsaturated Fats on Blood Coagulation In Miniature Pigs.
SummaryMiniature pigs maintained for one year on diets containing 15% of either beef tallow or safflower oil did not exhibit lipemia in the fasting state, yet the clotting time was much shorter in the tallow group than in the safflower group. The clotting time was shortened 3 hours after ingestion of either fat, but the effect produced by the saturated
