Dietary PUFA and cancer [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2014
The aim of the present paper is to give a brief overview on the role of dietary fat in carcinogenesis and as possible anticancer agents. Dietary fat is an essential nutrient and important source for the essential fatty acids (FA), linoleic and α-linolenic acids, which contribute to proper growth and development. However, dietary fat has been associated

Comparison of different dietary sources of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on immune response in broiler chickens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The study aims to research the effects of varied dietary sources of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on the immune response in broiler chickens with stress on natural killer (NK) cell activity. Diets supplemented with one of the four sources of n-3

PUFAs: Structures, Metabolism and Functions [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2015
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) include two series of fatty acids: omega-6 and omega-3 series. PUFAs have amphiphatic properties: hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail. Such structure and other properties of unsaturated fatty acids are responsible for exerting the following biological action: maintaining cell-membrane fluidity, inhib- iting ...

PUFA and MUFA

open access: yes, 2022
Fatty acids are important structural components that are required for the metabolic events. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) include multiple double bonds while monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) have one double bond which makes them different from the other fatty acids in the cis configuration in their chemical structure.
