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 = ...
متن کاملLong 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...
متن کاملLong-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and cognition in VLBW infants at 8 years: an RCT.
OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that supplementation with the long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (AA) to very low birth weight (VLBW) infants would improve long-term cognitive functions and influence neuroanatomical volumes and cerebral cortex measured by MRI. METHODS The current study is a follow-up of a randomized, double-blinded, placebo...
متن کاملLong chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and immunity in infants.
An infant is usually born with a deficient immune system, and the long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) in breast milk plays an important role in the development and maturation of infant's immune system. This article reviews the role of LC-PUFA in breast milk in the development of immunity and prevention of atopic manifestations in infants. The review also attempts to assess the corr...
متن کاملPerinatal 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...
