Kefir Grains Change Fatty Acid Profile of Milk during Fermentation and Storage. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Several studies have reported that lactic acid bacteria may increase the production of free fatty acids by lipolysis of milk fat, though no studies have been found in the literature showing the effect of kefir grains on the composition of fatty acids in ...

ACE‐inhibitory peptide Leu‐Tyr‐Ala in skeletal muscle actin exhibits anti‐aging effects through the inhibition of acn‐1 in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Inhibitors of angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE) are used in pharmaceuticals and functional foods. Captopril, a well‐known ACE inhibitor, extends the lifespan of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Bioactive peptides derived from food sources are considered safe ACE inhibitors.

Variation of fatty acid desaturation in response to different nitrate levels in Auxenochlorella pyrenoidosa [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2018
Microalgae are promising feedstocks for biodiesel, where the high proportion of monounsaturated fatty acid such as oleic acid (C18:1) is preferred. To regulate fatty acid desaturation in microalgae, the relationship among nitrate concentration, fatty ...

Higher Increases in Plasma n‐3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Following Fish Oil Supplementation in Postmenopausal Females Compared With Age‐Matched Males

open access: yesLipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effects of fish oil supplementation on omega‐3 (n‐3) polyunsaturated fatty acids, particularly intermediates between eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5n‐3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n‐3), that may provide valuable metabolic information, have not been fully characterized in older populations.

Changes In the lipid composition of rat hepatic microsomes induced by the diet

open access: yesGrasas y Aceites, 1994
The effect on the hepatic microsomes from rats fed with either virgin olive oil (10%) or fish oil (10%), with or without added cholesterol (1%), has been studied.

LKB1 Loss Sensitizes Lung Tumor Spheres to Mitomet‐Induced Ferroptosis, and These Effects are Enhanced by mTOR Inhibition

open access: yesMolecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Owing to their robust antioxidant defense mechanisms, cancer stem‐like cells (CSCs) maintain a low level of oxidative stress, which is crucial for preserving stemness and pluripotency. Therefore, agents that either directly generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) or inhibit the antioxidant defense systems can selectively induce oxidative cell ...

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

open access: yes, 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.

Functional characterisation of two cytochrome b 5-fusion desaturases from Anemone leveillei : the unexpected identification of a fatty acid delta6-desaturase

open access: yes, 2003
The Ranunculaceae are known to accumulate a wide range of unusual fatty acids in their seed lipids, and this variability has been advocated as a taxonomic marker. The Anemone species, Anemone leveillei L. and Anemone rivularis Buch.-Ham., have previously

Expression and Purification of Integral Membrane Fatty Acid Desaturases

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Fatty acid desaturase enzymes perform dehydrogenation reactions leading to the insertion of double bonds in fatty acids, and are divided into soluble and integral membrane classes. Crystal structures of soluble desaturases are available; however, membrane desaturases have defied decades of efforts due largely to the difficulty of generating recombinant
