The dietary essentiality of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in infant nutrition
… and CNS tissues when fed formula with 30% of fatty acids as18:2n-6 and 0.8% 18:3n-3, compared to sow milk. It was hypothesized that the low blood and tissue 22:6n-3 in formula-fed piglets was due to inappropriate quantities and/or ratios of dietary 18:2n-6 and 18:3n-3 limiting the synthesis of …

Modulation of protein expression in Mycobacterium tuberculosis-stimulated TB- IRIS patient-derived PBMCs by omega n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids
… treatment currently available for TB-IRIS. N-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) have safely and successfully been used in the treatment of other inflammatory diseases, and we hypothesized that they will have beneficial anti-inflammatory effects on TB-IRIS patient-derived immune cells. To …

Evaluating fish meal as a protein source for lactating dairy cows
… fermentation patterns. Plasma long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids were increased with increased fishmeal intake. Mammary slices from lactating bovine mammary gland were incubated with eicosapentaenoic acid. Changes in ¹⁴C-acetate metabolism were measured. Acetate oxidation and …

Comparative evaluation of the effects of whole essential oils and their active constituent compounds on the biohydrogenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids and fermentation characteristics of rumen microbes in vitro
… microbes and the biohydrogenation (BH) of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) were evaluated in four in vitro experiments and one feeding trial . In all the in vitro experiments, rumen fluid was collected from Hartline x Texel cross cull ewes. A basal feedstock comprising of 70:30 grass hay …

Dietary long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids affect plasma and tissue lipids in chickens
… how dietary lipid sources influence lipid and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) metabolism when fed to young, growing chickens. In the first experiment, commercial meat-type chickens were fed one of four dietary lipids: 1) linseed oil (LO); 2) menhaden oil (MO); 3) soybean oil (SBO); or 4) …

Dietary, Genetic and Metabolic Determinants of Serum Adiponectin
… the hypothesis that the amount and type of fatty acids in the diet affect serum adiponectin concentrations. The effects of ADIPOQ gene locus on serum adiponectin concentrations were examined in participants of the RISCK study at baseline and following dietary intervention. Major effects of …

Evaluation of Tom Fertility as Affected by Dietary Fatty Acid Composition
… of two studies was to manipulate the essential fatty acid content of turkey semen by enhancing the dietary levels of either n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) or n-6 PUFA and determine the effect on fertility. In 1999 (Trial 1), and again in 2000 (Trial 2), Large White tom turkeys, 37 weeks …

Salmon in Pregnancy Study (SIPS): the effects of increased oily fish consumption on maternal nutrient intake, fatty acid status and immunity
… Oily fish provide the long chain (LC) n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), as well as vitamin D and antioxidants (selenium). Fish oil provides EPA and DHA and fish oil supplementation during pregnancy alters offspring immunity in …

THE EFFECT OF FLAXSEED AND ITS LIGNAN COMPONENT ON ESTROGEN SIGNALING AND METABOLISM IN NORMAL AND CANCEROUS HEN OVARIES
… While it is well established that the n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids from flaxseed are anti-inflammatory the phytoestrogenic properties of its lignan, secoisolaricirescinol diglucoside (SDG) have not been fully explored. SDG metabolites, enterolactone (ED) and enterodiol (EL) can decrease …
