Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids regulation of PPARs, signaling: Relationship to tissue development and aging
(Elsevier, 2016)
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are nuclear receptors that function as ligand-dependent transcription factors that can be activated by different types of fatty acids (FAs). Three isoforms of PPARs have ...
Exploratory study of fatty acid profile in two filmy ferns with contrasting desiccation tolerance reveal the production of very long chain polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids
(MDPI AG, 2020-10-24)
Lipids are fundamental components of cell membranes and play a significant role in their integrity and fluidity. Alteration in lipid composition of membranes has been reported to be a major response to abiotic environmental ...
Increase in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid n-6/n-3 ratio in relation to hepatic steatosis in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
(2004)
Hepatic steatosis is a major feature associated with NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease). The aims of the present study were to assess the levels of PUFA (polyunsaturated fatty acids) in liver total lipids, ...
Modulation of unsaturated fatty acids content in algae Spirulina platensis and Chlorella minutissima in response to herbicide SAN 9785
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, 2006)
Recent advances in liver preconditioning: Thyroid hormone, n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and iron
(2012)
Liver preconditioning (PC), defined as an enhanced tolerance to injuring stimuli induced by previous specific maneuvers triggering beneficial functional and molecular changes, is of crucial importance in human liver ...
Arachidonic and docosahexaenoic acids are biosynthesized from their 18-carbon precursors in human infants
(National Academy of Sciences, 1996)
It is becoming clear that an adequate level of lung-chain highly unsaturated fatty acids in the nervous system is required for optimal function and development; however, the ability of infants to biosynthesize long-chain ...
