Long-Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Inborn Errors of Metabolism

The treatment of children with inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) is mainly based on restricted dietary intake of protein-containing foods. However, dietary protein restriction may not only reduce amino acid intake, but may be associated with low intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids as well. This review focuses on the consequences of dietary restriction in IEM on the bioavailability of long-cha...

Synthesis of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in preterm newborns fed formula with long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids.

BACKGROUND Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (AA) are long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPs) that play pivotal roles in growth and neurodevelopment. OBJECTIVE We aimed to quantify the synthesis of LCPs in preterm infants fed infant formula containing LCPs. DESIGN Twenty-two preterm infants were randomly assigned to either the no-LCP group (fed formula without LCPs; n = ...

Perinatal biochemistry and physiology of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (ARA) are important structural components of the central nervous system. These fatty acids are transferred across the placenta, are present in human milk, and are accumulated in the brain and retina during fetal and infant development. The high concentrations of DHA in the retina and of DHA and ARA in brain gray matter suggests that these fatty ac...

Long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in mothers and term babies.

AIM To establish the levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (AA) in both plasma and erythrocytes of maternal and cord blood as well as in breast milk of mothers delivering babies at term. METHODS A total of 148 mothers delivering babies at term were recruited from Bharati Medical Hospital, Pune, India. RESULTS Levels of DHA and AA in both plasma and erythrocyte were highe...

Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and diabetes mellitus.

The recent report in the Journal by Salmerón et al (1) suggests that replacing 2% of energy from trans fatty acids isoenergetically with polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) would lead to a 40% lower risk of type 2 diabetes. These authors also suggested that intakes of total fat and monounsaturated fatty acids are not associated with the risk of type 2 diabetes, but that intake of trans fatty ac...
