The 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...
متن کاملComparison of Essential and Non Essential Amino Acids in the Microbial Protein of Pleurotus Florida from the Lignocellulosic Wastes
Introduction: Cereal straws contain Cellulose, Hemicelluloses and Lignin and are most available renewable biopolymers. White rot fungi is used to convert these wastes into microbial protein. Pleurotus Florida are having the most delignification ability amongst other micro-organisms. We determined the amounts of protein, essential and non essential amino acids of the produced microbial protein f...
متن کاملThe essentials of essential fatty acids.
All fats, including saturated fatty acids, have important roles in the body. However, the most important fats are those that the body cannot make and thus must come from the food we eat. These essential fatty acids (EFAs) are based on linoleic acid (omega-6 group) and alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3 group). We need both groups of essential fatty acids to survive. For various reasons EFA deficienc...
متن کاملHigh affinity esterification of eicosanoid precursor fatty acids by platelets.
We have examined the relative rates of uptake of several fatty acids into washed, human platelets by measuring incorporation into cellular phospholipids. In the presence of 15 microM fatty acid-free albumin and with radioactive fatty acid concentrations of 5-500 nM, esterification into phospholipid was linear with time and platelet concentration and saturable with respect to fatty acid concentr...
