Polyunsaturated fatty acids and inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesOléagineux, Corps gras, Lipides, 2004
The n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid arachidonic acid gives rise to the eicosanoid family of inflammatory mediators (prostaglandins, leukotrienes and related metabolites) and through these regulates the activities of inflammatory cells, the production of ...

Circulating B-vitamins and smoking habits are associated with serum polyunsaturated Fatty acids in patients with suspected coronary heart disease: a cross-sectional study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids are considered to be of major health importance, and recent studies indicate that their endogenous metabolism is influenced by B-vitamin status and smoking habits. We investigated the associations of circulating

Lipid droplets and polyunsaturated fatty acid trafficking: Balancing life and death

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Lipid droplets are fat storage organelles ubiquitously distributed across the eukaryotic kingdom. They have a central role in regulating lipid metabolism and undergo a dynamic turnover of biogenesis and breakdown to meet cellular requirements for fatty ...

Effect of Germination on Fatty Acid Composition in Cereal Grains

open access: yesFoods, 2023
Sprouted grains are gaining popularity as functional food ingredients. This study aimed to evaluate the lipid and fatty acid composition of eight sprouted grains (millet, amaranth, quinoa, wheat, rye, barley, buckwheat, and oat).

A convenient route to mono-trans polyunsaturated free fatty acids

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Research, 2022
Trans unsaturated fatty acids in humans may be originated both from dietary supplementation and from an endogenous free-radical-catalyzed cis−trans isomerization of fatty acid residues in naturally occurring cis lipids.

The Link between Homocysteine and Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid: Critical Appraisal and Future Directions

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and B vitamins are linked to metabolic and degenerative disorders, such as cardiovascular disease and cognitive decline. In the last two decades, the interplay between B vitamins and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids

Polyunsaturated fatty acids and epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yesEpilepsia, 2010
SummaryOmega‐3 and omega‐6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are dietary fatty acids that are involved in a myriad of physiologic processes in the brain. There is some evidence suggesting that PUFAs—and particularly omega‐3 PUFAs—may have anticonvulsant effects, both in humans and in animals.

Chia (Salvia hispanica) seeds degradation studied by fuzzy-c mean (FCM) and hyperspectral imaging and chemometrics - fatty acids quantification

open access: yesScientia Agropecuaria, 2022
Chia seeds are nutritious food because they have a high content of protein, polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-3 and omega-6) and phenolic compounds.

Fatty acid profile of Crassostrea rhizophorae from Chacopata and La Restinga lagoons (Venezuela) and Caroni Swamp (Trinidad and Tobago)

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2006
 A comparative evaluation was made of the fatty acid content in total lipid, phospholipid and triacylglycerol extracts of Crassostrea rhizophorae, collected from Chacopata and La Restinga lagoons (Venezuela) and Caroni Swamp (Trinidad and Tobago).

Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids. IV.

open access: yesJournal of Japan Oil Chemists' Society, 1960
Infrared absorption spectra of polyunsaturated fatty acid esters obtained from cuttle fish oils, showed a characteristic absorption at 1395cm-1, in addition to the typical absorption of normal fatty acid methylesters. This absorption at 1395cm-1 was related to the double bond, since by hydrogenation or autoxidation it was vanished away.Methyl linoleate,
