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.

Membrane lipid metabolism as a regulatory frontier in neural crest biology: Roles for sphingolipids, cholesterol, and lipid rafts

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are multipotent, migratory stem‐like cells essential for vertebrate development that contribute broadly to many tissues including the craniofacial skeleton, peripheral nervous system, and pigment‐producing cells. Their development progresses through phases of induction, specification, delamination, migration, and ...

A randomised controlled trial investigating the effect of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation on cognitive and retinal function in cognitively healthy older people: the Older People And n-3 Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (OPAL) study protocol [ISRCTN72331636]. [PDF]

, 2006
The number of individuals with age-related cognitive impairment is rising dramatically in the UK and globally. There is considerable interest in the general hypothesis that improving the diet of older people may slow the progression of cognitive decline.

Unique lipids of primate spermatozoa: desmosterol and docosahexaenoic acid.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1993
Spermatozoa represent a tissue readily accessible for study after various exogenous perturbations. To characterize the lipid composition of monkey sperm and to establish a baseline from which dietary or pharmaceutical influences may then be evaluated, we

Placental transfer of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) [PDF]

, 2007
Considerable evidence exists for marked beneficial effects of omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) during pregnancy. The omega-3 LCPUFA docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is incorporated in large amounts in fetal brain and other tissues ...

Anti‐Inflammatory Effects of Punicic Acid and Its Molecular Mechanisms in RAW264.7 Cells and Zebrafish

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Punicic acid (PA) was enriched and purified from PSO by molecular distillation with significant anti‐inflammatory activity to RAW264.7 cells, as well as to zebrafish. Anti‐inflammatory mechanism involved regulating NF‐κB and MAPK signaling pathways. ABSTRACT Punicic acid (PA) is the main fatty acid in pomegranate seeds, which shows multiple biological ...

Omega-3 Index and Sudden Cardiac Death [PDF]

, 2010
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is an unresolved health issue, and responsible for 15% of all deaths in Western countries. Epidemiologic evidence, as well as evidence from clinical trials, indicates that increasing intake and high levels of eicosapentaenoic ...

Docosahexaenoic Acid and Cognition throughout the Lifespan [PDF]

Nutrients, 2016
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is the predominant omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) found in the brain and can affect neurological function by modulating signal transduction pathways, neurotransmission, neurogenesis, myelination, membrane receptor function, synaptic plasticity, neuroinflammation, membrane integrity and membrane organization ...
