Making fish oils in plants: from alpha to omega

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the biosynthetic pathway for the synthesis of omega‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. The sequential transgene‐encoded activities required to convert endogenous fatty acids to the longer chain polyunsaturated forms of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid are shown in red.

Optimization of One-Step In Situ Transesterification Method for Accurate Quantification of EPA in Nannochloropsis gaditana

Applied Sciences, 2016
Microalgae are a valuable source of lipid feedstocks for biodiesel and valuable omega-3 fatty acids. Nannochloropsis gaditana has emerged as a promising producer of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) due to its fast growth rate and high EPA content.

The Effects of Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) on Brown Adipogenesis in Stem Cell Culture [PDF]

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), are major maternal dietary supplements due to their positive benefits on neurological tissue growth during the first 12 weeks of gestation ...

Beyond Deterministic Fetal Programming: Intrauterine Exposures and the Multifactorial Origins of Adiposity

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excess adiposity is not a recently developed problem but has existed since at least the upper Paleolithic, allowing evolutionary selection pressures to adapt the physiology of the pregnant woman and the feto‐placental unit for maternal and fetal protection.

Binding modes of the metabolites docosahexaenoic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, and eicosapentaenoic acid ethyl ester from Caulerpa racemosa as COX-2 inhibitors revealed via metabolomics and molecular dynamics

Informatics in Medicine Unlocked
A total of 116 metabolites of Caulerpa racemosa were identified. However, only three (DHA, EPA, and EPAS) were found to have high anti-inflammatory potential, with Pa scores ranging from 0.764 to 0,827.

Fatty-acid uptake in prostate cancer cells using dynamic microfluidic raman technology [PDF]

It is known that intake of dietary fatty acid (FA) is strongly correlated with prostate cancer progression but is highly dependent on the type of FAs. High levels of palmitic acid (PA) or arachidonic acid (AA) can stimulate the progression of cancer.

Innovations in Obesity Treatment: Beyond Adipose Tissue Dysfunction

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
Obesity drives chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cancer development through adipocyte dysfunction. Addressing this multisystemic disorder requires integrated strategies beyond diet and exercise, such as thermogenesis activation via menthol or capsinoids and appetite control through GLP‐1/GIP agonists and neuromodulation to ...

Studies relating to Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid (PUFA) Supplementation and Fertility in Cattle [PDF]

End of project reportReproductive inefficiency has a significant impact on the economic performance of both dairy and beef herds, particularly in seasonal calving systems. Nutrition plays a fundamental role in reproduction. Furthermore, there is emerging

Emerging locally delivered antimicrobial and immunomodulatory approaches for the prevention/treatment of peri‐implant diseases

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Peri‐implant diseases are dysbiosis‐mediated inflammatory disorders that occur in susceptible hosts. Antimicrobials and immunomodulatory agents therefore might be pertinent as adjunctive measures in the treatment of such disorders. The aim of this narrative review was to examine the existing evidence and assess the effectiveness of emerging ...

Stearidonic acid improves eicosapentaenoic acid status: studies in humans and cultured hepatocytes

Frontiers in Nutrition
BackgroundAhiflower oil from the seeds of Buglossoides arvensis is rich in α-linolenic acid (ALA) and stearidonic acid (SDA). ALA and SDA are potential precursor fatty acids for the endogenous synthesis of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic ...
