Hydrophobic Ligand Binding by Zn-α_2-glycoprotein, a Soluble Fat-depleting Factor Related to Major Histocompatibility Complex Proteins [PDF]

, 2001
Zn-alpha2-glycoprotein (ZAG) is a member of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I family of proteins and is identical in amino acid sequence to a tumor-derived lipid-mobilizing factor associated with cachexia in cancer patients.

Adipose tissue arachidonic acid content is associated with the expression of 5-lipoxygenase in atherosclerotic plaques

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2013
Background The content of arachidonic acid in adipose tissue is positively associated with the risk of myocardial infarction, whereas the content of eicosapentaenoic acid in adipose tissue has been reported to be negatively associated with the risk of ...

Commercial Applications of Microalgae [PDF]

, 2006
The first use of microalgae by humans dates back 2000 years to the Chinese, who used Nostoc to survive during famine. However, microalgal biotechnology only really began to develop in the middle of the last century.

The Influence of Eicosapentaenoic Acid on <i>Macrobrachium rosenbergii</i> Broodstock: Ovarian Development, Antioxidant Status, and Lipid Metabolism. [PDF]

Aquac Nutr
Lipids are essential for crustacean reproduction, supporting broodstock growth and ovarian development. However, studies of n‐3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs), particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), on the growth and ovarian development of prawn broodstock remain limited.

Influence of eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5, n-3) on secretion of lipoproteins in CaCo-2 cells.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1992
CaCo-2 cells, grown on filter membranes, were used to study the effects of fatty acids on cellular metabolism of triacylglycerol and phospholipids. The rate of triacylglycerol secretion was enhanced more than 2-fold, from 1 to 2 weeks after reaching ...

n-3系脂肪散を強化した食事療法が有効と考えられた肺気腫の一例 [PDF]

, 1998
An effective treatment for the advanced stages of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has not been established yet. We report our recent experience of one patient with pulmonary emphysema treated by dietary supplementation of n-3 fatty acid for ...

A toolkit for Nannochloropsis oceanica CCMP1779 enables gene stacking and genetic engineering of the eicosapentaenoic acid pathway for enhanced long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acid production

Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2017
Summary Nannochloropsis oceanica is an oleaginous microalga rich in ω3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC‐PUFAs) content, in the form of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). We identified the enzymes involved in LC‐PUFA biosynthesis in N.
