Mass changes in the incorporation of linoleic (C18:2), eicosapentaenoic (C20:5) and docosahexaenoic (C22:6) acids in human blood platelet phospholipids were induced by incubating the cells and these fatty acids complexed to albumin. The remodelling of [14C]C18:2, [14C]C20:5 and [14C]C22:6 in classes, subclasses and molecular species of platelet phospholipids was studied in resting and thrombin-...

The polymorphic phase behavior of aqueous dispersions of 1-oleoyl-, 1-linoleoyl-, and 1-linolenoyl-sn-3-glycerophosphoethanolamine (1-C18:1c-PE, 1-C18:2c-PE, and 1-C18:3c-PE, respectively) has been investigated by 31P NMR, small-angle and wide-angle X-ray diffraction, and freeze-fracture techniques in response to changes in temperature and pH. Between -20 and 0 degrees C at pH 7, NMR and X-ray ...

Soybean is a valuable protein and oilseed crop ranked among the most significant of major crops. Field experiments were carried out in 2016–2019 South-East Poland. The influence soybean cultivars (Aldana, Annushka), nitrogen fertilizer (0, 30, 60 kg?ha?1 N) inoculation with B. japonicum (control, HiStick® Soy, Nitragina) on content fatty acids (FA) seeds was investigated three-factorial experim...

Intramuscular fat (IMF) and oleic acid (C18:1) content in pork are important issues for the pig industry and consumers. Data from a purebred Duroc line were used to i) estimate the genetic parameters of IMF and C18:1 and their genetic correlations with lean growth components, and ii) evaluate the opportunities for genetically improving C18:1 in IMF. The data set used for estimating genetic para...

BACKGROUND Lung cancer (LC) is the deadliest cancer, with earlier stage patients having a better opportunity of long-term survival. The goal of this study is to screen less-invasive and efficient biomarkers for early detection of non-small cell LC (NSCLC). MATERIAL AND METHODS We performed the simultaneous quantitative detection of six serum unsaturated free fatty acids (FFAs, C16:1, C18:3, C...
