The fatty acids of Euglena gracilis

Journal of Lipid Research, 1964
The complete structures of 51 fatty acids of Euglena gracilis have been determined. These include saturated fatty acids from C9 to C19, monounsaturated fatty acids from C13 to C19, diunsaturated fatty acids from C15 to C20, tri-unsaturated fatty acids ...

Polyunsaturated fatty acids up-regulate hepatic scavenger receptor B1 (SR-BI) expression and HDL cholesteryl ester uptake in the hamster

Journal of Lipid Research, 1999
Diets rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids lower plasma HDL cholesterol concentrations when compared to diets rich in saturated fatty acids. We investigated the mechanistic basis for this effect in the hamster and sought to determine whether reduced ...

Reduced triacylglycerol mobilization during seed germination and early seedling growth in Arabidopsis containing nutritionally important polyunsaturated fatty acids

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
There are now several examples of plant species engineered to synthesise and accumulate nutritionally important polyunsaturated fatty acids in their seed triacylglycerols (TAG).

RNA-Seq reveals differentially expressed genes affecting polyunsaturated fatty acids percentage in the Huangshan Black chicken population. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Fatty acids metabolic products determine meat quality in chickens. Identifying genes associated with fatty acids composition could provide valuable information for the complex genetic networks of genes with underlying variations in fatty acids synthesis.

N-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids reduces post-operative atrial fibrillation incidence in patients undergoing “on-pump” coronary artery bypass graft surgery

Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2015
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative and postoperative therapy with n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in reducing the incidence of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Omega 3: Should we indicate it in our patients?

Revista de la Sociedad Argentina de Diabetes, 2022
Lipids are identified as a fundamental component of the diet because they perform very important functions. They influence the modulation of immune functions and inflammatory processes; attributable to long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (long chain ...

Polyunsaturated fatty acids in mitochondria

Journal of Lipid Research, 1962
Fatty acids of mitochrondria from hearts and livers of fresh-water and marine fish, marine birds, fur seal, and from sweet potato have been analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography.

LONG-CHAIN POLYUNSATURATED ω-3 AND ω-6 FATTY ACIDS AS ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS IN DIFFERENT PERIODS OF CHILDHOOD

Педиатрическая фармакология, 2013
The authors present modern data on the issue of rational nutrition of children in different periods of childhood. The most frequent types of disorders are listed; insufficient consumption of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids is among them.

Unsaturated Fatty Acids and Their Immunomodulatory Properties

Biology, 2023
Oils are an essential part of the human diet and are primarily derived from plant (or sometimes fish) sources. Several of them exhibit anti-inflammatory properties.

Astrocytes are mainly responsible for the polyunsaturated fatty acid enrichment in blood–brain barrier endothelial cells in vitro

Journal of Lipid Research, 1998
To determine the respective roles of endothelial cells from brain capillaries and astrocytes in the conversion of circulating 18:2n–6 and 18:3n–3 into 20:4n–6 and 22:6n–3, respectively, a coculture of the two cell types mimicking the in vivo blood–brain ...
