Effect of different microalgal n−3 PUFA supplementation doses on yolk color and n−3 LC-PUFA enrichment in the egg

Synthesis and Metabolism of N3 and N6 PUFA in Mammals

Stability of omega-3 LC-PUFA-rich photoautotrophic microalgal oils compared to commercially available omega-3 LC-PUFA oils.

Microalgae are the primary producers of omega-3 LC-PUFA, which are known for their health benefits. Their oil may thus be a potential alternative for fish oil. However, oxidative and hydrolytic stability of omega-3 LC-PUFA oils are important parameters. The purpose of this work was therefore to evaluate these parameters in oils from photoautotrophic microalgae (Isochrysis, Phaeodactylum, Nannoc...

Perturbation of glycerol metabolism in hepatocytes from n3-PUFA-depleted rats.

Second generation n3-PUFA-depleted rats represent a good animal model of metabolic syndrome as they display several features of the disease such as liver steatosis, visceral obesity and insulin resistance. The goal of our study was to investigate the influence of n3-PUFA deficiency on hepatic glycerol metabolism. Aquaglyceroporin 9 (AQP9) allows hepatic glycerol transport and consequently contr...

Fish or n3-PUFA intake and body composition: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Obesity is a major public health issue and an important contributor to the global burden of chronic disease and disability. Studies indicate that fish and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n3-PUFA) supplements may help prevent cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. However, the effect of fish oil on body composition is still uncertain, so we performed a systematic review of randomized contro...

the effect of task cognitive complexity and time limit on the performance of the learners with different proficiency levels in second language writing skill

this study investigated the effects of manipulating the cognitive complexity of tasks along +/- few elements and the time limits on l2 learners writing performance. to conduct the study, 60 iranian efl learners with two levels of proficiency, low and high intermediate, were selected and assigned to three groups based on the time devoted to task completion. the participants performed both a simp...
