Dietary N-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids decrease biliary cholesterol saturation in gallstone disease [PDF]

, 1992
Because fatty acid composition of biliary phospholipids influences cholesterol secretion into bile, we investigated whether replacement of n-1 monounsaturated or n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids with n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in biliary ...

Ophthalmic Diagnosis and Novel Management of Infantile Refsum Disease with Combination Docosahexaenoic Acid and Cholic Acid

Case Reports in Ophthalmological Medicine, 2021
Infantile Refsum disease is a rare peroxisomal biogenesis disorder characterized by impaired alpha-oxidation and accumulation of phytanic acid in the tissues. Patients often present with fundus changes resembling retinitis pigmentosa, developmental delay,

Evaluation of the impact of genetic polymorphisms in glutathione-related genes on the association between methylmercury or n-3 polyunsaturated long chain fatty acids and risk of myocardial infarction: a case-control study

Environmental Health, 2011
Background The n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid, which are present in fish, are protective against myocardial infarction.

Docosahexaenoic acid: one molecule diverse functions

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 2017
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22:6, ω-3) is a highly polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid. It is concentrated in neuronal brain membranes, for which reason it is also referred to as a “brain food”. DHA is essential for brain development and function.

Arachidonic Acid and Docosahexaenoic Acid Metabolites in the Airways of Adults With Cystic Fibrosis: Effect of Docosahexaenoic Acid Supplementation

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder, caused by genetic mutations in CF transmembrane conductance regulator protein. Several reports have indicated the presence of specific fatty acid alterations in CF patients, most notably decreased ...

Docosahexaenoic acid promotes photoreceptor differentiation without altering Crx expression [PDF]

, 2006
PURPOSE: The precise molecular cues required for photoreceptor development are still unknown. Pax6 and Crx are essential during early retinal development and for photoreceptor differentiation, respectively.

Autooxidation of docosahexaenoic acid: analysis of ten isomers of hydroxydocosahexaenoate.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1984
Docosahexaenoic acid, an n-3 essential fatty acid, was recently shown to be enzymically converted by platelets, basophils, and liver microsomes into metabolites containing conjugated dienes with allylic hydroxyl groups. To help identify these metabolites,
