Fatty acids and lymphocyte functions.
The immune system acts to protect the host against pathogenic invaders. However, components of the immune system can become dysregulated such that their activities are directed against host tissues, so causing damage. Lymphocytes are involved in both the beneficial and detrimental effects of the immune system. Both the level of fat and the types of fatty acid present in the diet can affect lymp...

oxidation via the tricarboxylic acid cycle. The metabolism of [14C]ethanolamine to fatty acids via acetate has been shown to occur in mammals (Sprinson & Coulon, 1954; Sprinson & Weliky, 1969), but not previously ina bacterium. Thedecreased incorporation of [14C]ethanolamine that occurs when an alternative N source is present is probably related to the repression by (NH4)2S04 of the phospholyas...

Background: The dried fruits of Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn (Compositae) contain silymarin, an isomeric mixture of flavonolignans. Silymarin acts as a strong anti -hepatotoxic. This fruits contains a high amount of oil . Objective: The objective of this study was to determine total lipid content, fatty acid composition and content of different kind of tocopherols in seed oils of S. marianum...
متن کاملThe non-eicosanoid functions of the essential fatty acids.
Coincident with the discovery of the essential fatty acids (EFA), the symptoms of their deficiency were thoroughly delineated. The mechanisms by which these symptoms were produced, however, and the intimate functions of these substances remained obscure for many years. Smedley-MacLean and Hume (1) considered that the EFA are involved in the formation of new cells, and a careful consideration of...
