Biosynthetic mechanism of very long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in Thraustochytrium sp. 26185[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2016
Thraustochytrium, a unicellular marine protist, has been used as a commercial source of very long chain PUFAs (VLCPUFAs) such as DHA (22:6n-3). Our recent work indicates coexistence of a Δ4-desaturation-dependent pathway (aerobic) and a polyketide ...

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

, 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 ...

Effect of Animal and Industrial Trans Fatty Acids on HDL and LDL Cholesterol Levels in Humans - A Quantitative Review [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Trans fatty acids are produced either by industrial hydrogenation or by biohydrogenation in the rumens of cows and sheep. Industrial trans fatty acids lower HDL cholesterol, raise LDL cholesterol, and increase the risk of coronary heart ...

The association between plasma omega-3 fatty acids and suicidal ideation/self-harm in the United Kingdom Biobank

Lipids in Health and Disease
Background Self-harm is a significant public health concern, with increasing prevalence globally. Omega-3 fatty acids (FAs), particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), are known for their health benefits, including potential

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Factors affecting fatty acid composition in forage and milk [PDF]

, 2009
The aims of the studies underlying this thesis were to evaluate variations in fatty acid (FA) contents of plants used as forage for dairy cows in northern Sweden, and their effects on the FA contents of the milk.

Polyunsaturated fatty acids in various macroalgal species from north Atlantic and tropical seas [PDF]

, 2011
Background - In this study the efficacy of using marine macroalgae as a source for polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are associated with the prevention of inflammation, cardiovascular diseases and mental disorders, was investigated.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Polyunsaturated fatty acid accumulation in the lipids of cultured fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells

Journal of Lipid Research, 1981
The lipid content per cell of cells in tissue culture depended on the cell type. Fibroblasts derived from human neonatal foreskin contained less triglyceride and phospholipid and more cholesteryl ester than smooth muscle cells derived from guinea pig ...
