α-Linolenic acid but not conjugated linolenic acid is hypocholesterolaemic in hamsters [PDF]
Conjugated linolenic acid (CLN) refers to a group of octadecatrienoic acid isomers that have three double bonds in conjugation. Both pomegranate and tung seed oils are rich in CLN but the major isomer in the former iscis9,trans11,cis13 while in the latter it iscis9,trans11,trans13.

Isomerization increases the postprandial oxidation of linoleic acid but not α-linolenic acid in men
Human lipid intake contains various amounts of trans fatty acids. Refined vegetable and frying oils, rich in linoleic acid and/or α-linolenic acid, are the main dietary sources of trans-18:2 and trans-18:3 fatty acids. The aim of the present study was to

Although the fish-derived, long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 FA) may be considered “gifts from the sea” for cardiovascular health, the role of the land (or plant) -based n-3 FA α-linolenic acid (ALA) has been less clear. ALA is the 18-carbon, 3-double bond (C18:3n-3) precursor to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; C20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA ...

Enhancing microRNA167A expression in seed decreases the α-linolenic acid content and increases seed size in Camelina sativa. [PDF]
Despite well established roles of microRNAs in plant development, few aspects have been addressed to understand their effects in seeds especially on lipid metabolism.

α-Linolenic acid and cardiovascular disease [PDF]
Oomen et al (1) reported on the lack of association between -linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3n 3) consumption and the incidence of coronary artery disease in a 10-y follow-up. We believe that 2 major limitations of this study might have affected its outcome and led to the wrong conclusions.

Hydrated lime matrix decreases ruminal biohydrogenation of flaxseed fatty acids [PDF]
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential nutrients for humans, but dietary intake of these nutrients by many Americans is inadequate due to low consumption of omega-3-rich foods such as fish, walnuts, and flaxseed.

Depending on the variety, flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) provides an oil rich in omega-3 acids (especially 50% α-linolenic acid) with proven health properties, and is used as a raw industrial material.

Gamma-linolenic acid, Dihommo-gamma linolenic, Eicosanoids and Inflammatory Processes [PDF]
Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA, 18:3n-6) is an omega-6 (n-6), 18 carbon (18C-) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) found in human milk and several botanical seed oils and is typically consumed as part of a dietary supplement. While there have been numerous in vitro and in vivo animal models which illustrate that GLA-supplemented diets attenuate inflammatory ...
