Polyunsaturated fatty acids and inflammation
IUBMB Life, 2015AbstractInflammation is a protective process for life that aims to restore body homeostasis by targeting the injury and by inducing repair mechanisms. This process can also become excessive and lead to chronic inflammation and organ fibrosis. Polyunsaturated fatty acids play a key role in inflammatory processes and their resolution.

Neonatal polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism
Lipids, 1999AbstractThe importance of n−6 and n−3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in neonatal development, particularly with respect to the developing brain and retina, is well known. This review combines recent information from basic science and clinical studies to highlight recent advances in knowledge on PUFA metabolism and areas where research is still ...

Long-Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids
Neonatology, 1998Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) are essential for normal development. Fetal accretion of LC-PUFA occurs during the last trimester of gestation; therefore, premature infants are born with minimal LC-PUFA reserves. Recent studies indicate that the newborn can synthesize LC-PUFA from essential fatty acid precursors; however, the extent of

Enzymatic Purification of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids.
Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering, 2001Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have various physiological functions. Of these, ethyl eicosapentaenoate is industrially purified and used as a medicine. Other PUFAs, such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), and arachidonic acid (AA), are also expected to be used as pharmaceutical agents; however, their industrial purification

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids
Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2011Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are naturally occurring omega (ω)-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), which are found in highest quantities in oily fish such as sardines and mackerel. Epidemiological studies of the association between fish intake, ω-3 PUFA intake or blood ω-3 PUFA levels and colorectal cancer ...

Polyunsaturated fatty acids and cardiac arrhythmia
Biochemical Society Transactions, 1990lschacmic heart disease is a major cause of death in the western world. The manifestation of this disease can be chest pain, heart attack or sudden cardiac death. Coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality is positively related to dietary saturated fat [I] . Such diets are correspondingly low in polyunsaturated fatty acids, in particular linoleic acid [2].

Plasmalogens and Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids
2008The analysis of polyunsaturated fatty acids (“essential fatty acids”) in plasma and erythrocytes is carried out by gas chromatography of their methyl esters following trans-methylation of the fatty acid esters. The O-alkenyl ethers or plasmalogens – an important group of phospholipids – are converted into dimethylacetals in this process and can be ...
