  1. Mice Lacking Delta -6 Desaturase Provide New Insight Into the Essentiality of Highly Unsaturated Fatty Acids

    This knockout mouse presents itself as an ideal model for the continued investigation of HUFA including AA, DHA and DPA.

  2. The Effect of Highly Unsaturated Fatty Acids (HUFA) on Lake Trout (Salve linus namaycush) Alevins Using Artemia nauplii Enriched with Commercial Emulsions and Dry Diets

    Highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) are important nutrients for fish survival, development, and reproduction. Fish oil (PO), rich in HUFA, is the dominant lipid source for first feeds in salmonid aquaculture. To determine if other lipid sources would influence survival, growth, and fatty acid …

  4. Depletion of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid causes male infertility by disrupting both secretory granule biogenesis and adherens junction assembly in testis

    An insufficiency in omega-3 fatty acids has been linked to a wide variety of health concerns including Alzheimer’s disease, CHD, sub-optimal fetal development and male infertility. The long chain omega-3 docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and omega-6 arachidonic acid (ARA) are highly unsaturated fatty

  6. The role of dietary arachidonic acid and docosahexaenoic acid in preventing the phenotype observed with highly unsaturated fatty acid deficiency

    The physiological roles of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA), mainly arachidonic acid (AA, 20:4ω6) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6ω3), are not completely understood. In order to study specific functions for AA and DHA, a delta-6 desaturase knockout (D6D-/-) mouse was created. D6D is a key …
