Evaluation of the Relationship between Endometriosis and Omega-3 and Omega-6 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids
Background: Endometriosis is a common chronic inflammation causing major problems including infertility. The role of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids as their potential anti-inflammatory effects in endometriosis needs to be further explored. The objective of this study was to compare serum phospholipid fatty acid profile in endometriosis patients with controls, and to explore the correlation of ...
متن کاملMechanisms underlying the cardioprotective effects of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids.
Typical omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) are docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid in the form of fish oils and alpha linolenic acid from flaxseed oil. Epidemiological studies suggested the benefits of n-3 PUFA on cardiovascular health. Intervention studies confirmed that the consumption of n-3 PUFA provided benefits for primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular...
متن کاملNew facts on the cardioprotective role of Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids
There is already important evidence regarding the beneficial effects of omega 3-polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega 3-PUFAs) on cardiac protection. Initial epidemiological observations on people who consumed large quantities of fish revealed higher life-expectancy and fewer cardiovascular events in comparison with subjects who consumed less fish. This possible link between fish consumption and c...
متن کاملHeterologous Reconstitution of Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Arabidopsis
Reconstitution of nonnative, very-long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (VLC-PUFA) biosynthetic pathways in Arabidopsis thaliana was undertaken. The introduction of three primary biosynthetic activities to cells requires the stable coexpression of multiple proteins within the same cell. Herein, we report that C22 VLC-PUFAs were synthesized from C18 precursors by reactions catalyzed by Δ(6)-desa...
متن کاملThe Role of Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Stroke
Stroke is the third commonest cause of death following cardiovascular diseases and cancer. In particular, in recent years, the morbidity and mortality of stroke keep remarkable growing. However, stroke still captures people attention far less than cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Past studies have shown that oxidative stress and inflammation play crucial roles in the progress of cerebral inj...
