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

Individual variation and intraclass correlation in arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid in chicken muscle [PDF]
Lipids in Health and Disease, 2010 Chicken meat with reduced concentration of arachidonic acid (AA) and reduced ratio between omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids has potential health benefits because a reduction in AA intake dampens prostanoid signaling, and the proportion between omega-6 and

The Effects of Fatty Acid in Population Related to Body Mass Index
Jurnal Kesehatan Masyarakat Andalas, 2022 Normal body mass index (BMI) is related to a person's health condition. Consumption of fatty acids is used to keep some problems of BMI abnormalities. The study aimed to assess the relationship between fatty acids and changes in BMI.

Generation of cloned transgenic pigs rich in omega-3 fatty acids [PDF]
, 2006 Meat products are generally low in omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids, which are beneficial to human health. We describe the generation of cloned pigs that express a humanized Caenorhabditis elegans gene, fat-1, encoding an n-3 fatty acid desaturase.
