The effect of addition of linoleic acid on food intake regulation in linoleic acid tasters and linoleic acid non-tasters

The effect of addition of linoleic acid on food intake regulation in linoleic acid tasters and linoleic acid non-tasters.

In a randomised, single blind, placebo-controlled crossover design study, we investigated whether healthy, non-smoking, dietary unrestrained women (n 24), divided into linoleic acid tasters (LAT, n 14) and linoleic acid non-tasters (LANT, n 10), differed in food intake regulation when linoleic acid was added to ice creams. The determination of subjects as LAT or LANT was done using a 10 microm-...

Protective Effects of Linoleic Acid against the Cytotoxicity of Palmitic Fatty Acid in Rat Cardiomyocytes

Background & Aims: Lipotoxicity is the process through which accumulation of lipid intermadiates leads to cellular dysfunction. The worldwide prevalence of cardiovascular diseases has been increased dramatically due to lipotoxicity. According to the peformed studies, saturated and unsaturated fatty acids differ significantly in their contributions to lipotoxicity. It has been r...

Conjugated Linoleic Acid Targets

Effects of conjugated linoleic acid on linoleic and linolenic acid metabolism in man.

Evidence from animal studies suggests that conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) modulates plasma and tissue appearance of newly synthesized PUFA. The effects of a 1.2g (0.5 % energy) daily intake of the cis-9,trans-11 (c9,t11) isomer of CLA, trans-10,cis-12 (t10,c12) isomer of CLA or olive oil (placebo) on linoleic acid (LA) and linolenic acid (LNA) metabolism in healthy human volunteers was investig...

Evaluation of linoleic acid, eladic acid and palmitic acid for cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory activities

Background and objectives: Nigella sativa seeds have shown to possess anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, trenquillizer, chemopreventive and anti-neoplastic effects. Besides, they areused as nutritional flavoring agents. We have investigated the protective effects of N.  sativa seeds hexane extract and active principles against methyl phenyl pyridine (MP...
