Effect of dietary docosahexaenoic acid on biosynthesis of docosahexaenoic acid from alpha-linolenic acid in young rats [PDF]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2008
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a crucial nervous system n-3 PUFA, may be obtained in the diet or synthesized in vivo from dietary alpha-linolenic acid (LNA). We addressed whether DHA synthesis is regulated by the availability of dietary DHA in artificially reared rat pups, during p8 to p28 development.

Chemical composition and fatty acid contents in farmed freshwater prawns

Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2013
The objective of this work was to evaluate the chemical composition and fatty acid contents of Amazonian and giant river prawns. After four-month farming, with the same diet for both species, palmitic and stearic acids were the main saturated fatty acids.

Comparative Study of Free and Total Fatty Acids of Spreadable Cheeses by Mass Spectrometry Methods

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
This study focuses on the determination of FFAs in spreadable cheeses and alternatives using a fast Liquid Chromatography‐High Resolution Mass Spectrometry method. A Gas Chromatography‐Mass Spectrometry method was used to determine the composition (%) of total FAs in the same samples.

Dietary partitioning mediates species coexistence in the high seas area of northwest Pacific

Ecography, EarlyView.
Niche partitioning, manifesting along various axes of the ecological niche, is a fundamental mechanism mediating species coexistence in a system. However, the emergence of many species in marine ecosystems would face considerable constraints in achieving coexistence through spatiotemporal differentiation mechanisms under the framework of niche ...

Omega-3 Fatty Acid Supplementation and Incident Age-Related Macular Degeneration in a United States Veteran Population: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Journal of Clinical & Translational Ophthalmology
Background: Higher intake of omega-3 fatty acids from food sources is associated with a reduced risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), but there are no recommended parameters for omega-3 fatty acid supplementation.

Pretranslational regulation of cytochrome P4504A1 by free fatty acids in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1994
The effect of different fatty acids on cytochrome P4504A1 mRNA levels was studied in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes, using a solution hybridization assay. All fatty acids tested induced P4504A1 mRNA levels in a dose- and time-dependent manner.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF DOCOSAHEXAENOIC ACID (DHA) [PDF]

Pharmacological Research, 1999
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is essential for the growth and functional development of the brain in infants. DHA is also required for maintenance of normal brain function in adults. The inclusion of plentiful DHA in the diet improves learning ability, whereas deficiencies of DHA are associated with deficits in learning.
