Long-chain saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids associate with development of premature infants up to 18 months of age.

open access: yes, 2016
Myelination is important perinatally and highly dependent on long-chain saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids. Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, nowadays often supplemented, inhibit oleic acid synthesis.

Differences in fatty acid composition between cerebral brain lobes in juvenile pigs after fish oil feeding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Very long-chain n-3 PUFA from fish are suggested to play a role in the development of the brain. Fish oil feeding results in higher proportions of n-3 PUFA in the brains of newborn piglets. However, the effect of fish oil on the fatty acid composition of

Fatty acid reductases (FAR): Insights into the biosynthesis of fatty alcohols in plants and bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Primary fatty alcohols are present in all phyla, where they serve various unique biological functions, either in structural materials or biochemical compounds.

Application of a diagnostic methodology by quantification of 26:0 lysophosphatidylcholine in dried blood spots for Japanese newborn screening of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2017
X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) is a rare inherited metabolic disease that results in the accumulation of very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA) in plasma and all tissues.

Somatostatin receptor 4 (SSTR4) is a tumor suppressor in cutaneous and head & neck squamous cell carcinomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

Effects of fatty acids on inflammatory markers studies in vitro and in vivo

open access: yes, 2008
Inflammation involves interactions amongst many different cell types as a defense mechanism of the body. Inflammation is also involved in cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Safety and tolerance of the ketogenic diet in patients with Zellweger Syndrome

open access: yesEpilepsy & Behavior Reports
Zellweger Syndrome is a peroxisomal disorder that can lead to elevation of long chain fatty acids and epilepsy, which can be drug resistant. The treatment of drug resistant epilepsy can include the ketogenic diet in appropriately chosen patients ...

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Time‐restricted feeding prior to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection reduces tissue CD4+ T cells with limited impact on bacterial clearance

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐restricted feeding (TRF) in mice increased liver fatty acid oxidation and decreased fatty acid biosynthesis. These alterations persisted when TRF was discontinued and the host was infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Pre‐exposure to TRF did not alter tissue (lung and spleen) mycobacterial burden but significantly reduced CD3+ T cells in lungs

Progress towards the production of very long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid in transgenic plants: plant metabolic engineering comes of age

open access: yes, 2006
Very long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids are vital components of the human diet, playing important multiple roles in optimal health and development.
