An in vitro model for essential fatty acid deficiency: HepG2 cells permanently maintained in lipid-free medium.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1992
A stable essential fatty acid-deficient cell type, known as HepG2-EFD, was derived from the lipoprotein-producing human hepatoma cell line HepG2. These cells are particularly useful for quantitative studies involving essential fatty acids (n-6 and n-3 ...

Fats and major fatty acids present in edible insects utilised as food and livestock feed

open access: yesVeterinary and Animal Science, 2023
Common food sources including meat, fish and vegetables are the main source of fats and fatty acids required by human body. Edible insects such as worms, locusts, termites, crickets and flies have also been identified as a potential source of essential ...

Inverse Association between trans Isomeric and Long-Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Pregnant Women and Their Newborns: Data from Three European Countries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: trans unsaturated fatty acids are thought to interfere with essential fatty acid metabolism. To extend our knowledge of this phenomenon, we investigated the relationship between trans isomeric and long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids ...

Transgenic mice convert carbohydrates to essential fatty acids. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Transgenic mice (named "Omega mice") were engineered to carry both optimized fat-1 and fat-2 genes from the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans and are capable of producing essential omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids from saturated fats or carbohydrates. When

Intestinal absorption of essential fatty acids under physiological and essential fatty acid-deficient conditions

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1997
The adequate supply of essential fatty acids (EFA) to the body depends upon sufficient dietary intake and subsequent efficient intestinal absorption. Lipid malabsorption is not only a leading cause of EFA deficiency (EFAD), but also occurs secondarily to

Essential fatty acids and lipid mediators. Endocannabinoids

open access: yesLa Pediatria Medica e Chirurgica, 2012
In 1929 Burr and Burr discovered the essential fatty acids omega-6 and omega-3. Since then, researchers have shown a growing interest in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) as precursors of “lipid mediator” molecules, often with opposing effects ...

Effects of dietary long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids on plasma amino acids and indices of protein metabolism in infants: Results from a randomized clinical trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Background/Aim: Previous studies in vitro and in animals in vivo found that alpha-linolenic acid (C18:3 omega 3) may enhance oxidative damage of essential amino acids.

Transgenic barley producing essential polyunsaturated fatty acids

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2014
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) affect diverse physiological processes and human health. Most cereals are poor in n-3 and n-6 PUFAs. Using biolistics, barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv.
