Part D. Section 3: Fatty Acids and Cholesterol
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Dietary fats, or lipids, are a macronutrient class that includes fatty acids, triglycerides, and cholesterol. Fats supply fuel energy (9 kcal/g) and the essential fatty acids, linoleic and alphalinolenic acids. Fats, therefore, are a key factor in the maintenance of caloric balance and body weight. Specific fatty acids also serve as precursors for numerous biological pathways that influence inflammation, coagulation, and gene expression among other functions. Fat soluble vitamins (vitamins A, D, E, K) and carotenoids are absorbed and transported with fats.

O-16: Metabolism of Exogenous Fatty Acids, Fatty Acid-Mediated Cholesterol Efflux, PKA and PKC Pathways in Boar Sperm Acrosome Reaction
Background: For understanding the roles of fatty acids on the induction of acrosome reaction which occurs under association of cholesterol efflux and PKA or PKC pathways in boar spermatozoa, metabolic fate of alone and combined radiolabeled 14C-oleic acid and 3H-linoleic acid incorporated in the sperm was compared, and behavior of cholesterol and effects of PKA and PKC inhibitors upon fatty aci...
متن کاملFatty acid composition, chemical composition and processing yield of traditional hot smoked common carp (Cyprinus carpio, L)
The main objective of this study was to describe the proper technological process of hot smoking of common carp as well as to determine the yield of the final product and also proximate and fatty acid composition of hot-smoked common carp meat. The average yield of smoked common carp was 82.19% based on weight of eviscerated and descaled fish or 47% based on weight of live fish. The smoking pro...
متن کاملP-14: In Vitro Comparison of Different Dietary Omega-3/Omega-6 Fatty Acid Ratios and Vitamin E on The Rat Semen Quality
Background: Beneficial effects of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) on the male fertility are widely described in the literature. However, there is little information about the effect of dietary n-3/n-6 ratios and Vit E on the male reproduction. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of dietary PUFAs on the rat sperm characteristics after eight weeks oil consumption. Mate...
