A novel omega3-fatty acid desaturase involved in the biosynthesis of eicosapentaenoic acid.
Long-chain n-3 PUFAs (polyunsaturated fatty acids) such as EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid; 20:5 n-3) have important therapeutic and nutritional benefits in humans. In plants, cyanobacteria and nematodes, omega3-desaturases catalyse the formation of these n-3 fatty acids from n-6 fatty acid precursors. Here we describe the isolation and characterization of a gene ( sdd17 ) derived from an EPA-rich f...
متن کاملOmega3 Fatty Acids: Do They Raise Health Concerns?
A volume of epidemiological, experimental and clinical data reveals the beneficial effect of omega 3 class of fatty acids in a variety of human ailments. However, conflicting results do exist and long term use of these highly unsaturated fatty acids has been cautioned due to its susceptibility to oxidative changes. Enzymatic oxidation of well-known omega 3 fatty acids docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)...
متن کاملEndothelin-1 attenuates omega3 fatty acid-induced apoptosis by inhibition of caspase 3.
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) may be involved in the induction of vascular hypertrophy in hypertension. ET-1 may also modulate vascular growth through the exertion of antiapoptotic effects. The omega3 fatty acids (omega3 FAs), which have antiproliferative effects in various cell types, may have a beneficial role in hypertension. We tested the hypothesis that ET-1 could act as a survival factor against om...
متن کاملIdentification of two novel microalgal enzymes involved in the conversion of the omega3-fatty acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, into docosahexaenoic acid.
Marine microalgae such as Pavlova and Isochrysis produce abundant amounts of the omega3-PUFAs (polyunsaturated fatty acids), EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid, 20:5n-3) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid, 22:6n-3). The pathway leading to the conversion of EPA into DHA in these lower eukaryotes is not well established although it is predicted to involve an elongation step, catalysed by an elongating enzyme ...
متن کاملThe fish in secondary prevention of heart disease (FISH) survey--primary care physicians and omega3 fatty acid prescribing behaviors.
PURPOSE Consumption of fish oil has been shown to reduce mortality in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study aims to determine the frequency and associations of dietary fish prescribing by family physicians. METHODS A 22-item survey mailed to randomly selected Washington State family physicians. RESULTS Nearly all agreed that nutrition is important in CVD prevention (99%) an...
