Omega-3-PUFA, Omega-6-PUFA and Mitochondria
2008Omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) belong to the essential fatty acids because the body cannot synthesize them and they must be obtained from the diet. That is why the role of the diet in prevention of mitochondrial damage and pathogenesis of hypertension, coronary artery disease, type 2 diabetes and atherosclerosis has been ...

Red blood cell PUFAs reflect the phospholipid PUFA composition of major organs
Prostaglandins, Leukotrienes and Essential Fatty Acids, 2016Numerous clinical trials examining the use of omega-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LCPUFAs) on various health outcomes have been conducted, and fish oil remains one of the most widely used nutritional supplements. More recently, studies have begun to utilize the omega-3 index, defined as the sum of EPA+DHA in red blood cells (RBCs), as ...

Whole‐body utilization of n−3 PUFA in n−6 PUFA‐deficient rats
Lipids, 2003AbstractWe evaluated the utilization of α‐linolenic acid (18∶3n−3) in growing rats consuming a diet deficient in n−6 PUFA. After 90 d, whole‐body 18∶3n−3 accumulation was 55% lower, total n−3 PUFA accumulation was 21% lower, and 18∶3n−3 disappearance was 14% higher in n−6 PUFA‐deficient rats.

Nutrition plays a critical role in health promotion and disease prevention, while nutrition-related factors are in many cases key risk factors contributing to morbidity and mortality. The “modern” diet is increasingly leading to health problems such as overweight and obesity, type 2 diabetes, some types of cancer, neurodegenerative and other diseases ...

n−3 PUFAs in cardiovascular disease
International Journal of Cardiology, 2013Many large, randomised clinical trials and some meta-analyses have shown that treatment with n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) is associated with consistent benefits on cardiovascular (CV) events, primarily due to a reduction of coronary and CV deaths in patients with coronary heart disease.

Correlation between PUFA/pufa scores and BMI-for age in rural Indian children
Indian Journal of Oral Sciences, 2014Context: Dental caries continues to be a major health problem in the developing nations like India. The unmet dental care needs pose an important risk factor for undernutrition prevalence in rural areas. Aims: The present study aimed to investigate the effect of dental caries and its consequences using pulp involvement, ulceration, fistula, abscess ...

AbstractFood consumption data of Flemish women of reproductive age collected in 2002 showed a large deficit for ALA and n‐3 LC PUFA compared to the recommendations (mean ALA and EPA + DHA intake 1.4 g/day and 209 mg/day, respectively) and indicated a need to tackle the problem of low n‐3 PUFA intake.

PUFA for Prevention and Treatment of Dementia?
Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2009Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) play a crucial role in cerebral structure and function. Omega-3 PUFA is an exciting area of research, with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) emerging as a new potential agent for prevention of cognitive decline and treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
