Fatty liver syndrome (Hepatic lipidosis) or fat cow syndrome is a major metabolic disorder in many dairy cattle's in early period of lactation. The aim of this study was to evaluating fatty liver syndrome in dairy cattle in Tabriz by measurement of NEFA and TG serum values. The results showed that NEFA has a direct relationship with TG. Thus, with elevating of NEFA serum values, TG also increased.

Adipose tissue (AT) fatty acid (FA) composition partly reflects habitual dietary intake. Circulating NEFA are mobilised from AT and might act as a minimally invasive surrogate marker of AT FA profile. Agreement between twenty-eight FA in AT and plasma NEFA was assessed using concordance coefficients in 204 male and female participants in a 12-month intervention using supplements to increase the...

We previously hypothesized that the endothelial cell dysfunction observed in women with preeclampsia might be caused by an imbalance between circulating very low density lipoproteins and a cytoprotective pI 5.6 isoform of albumin, referred to as toxicity preventing albumin (TxPA). An accurate simplified method was developed to quantify TxPA in small volumes of pregnancy plasma by gel electrofoc...

background: fasting is an alternative method to induceanorexia. objectives: the biochemical factors of liver andserum and clinical signs were measured and documented in fivenon-lactating, non-pregnant cows following eight days of fasting.methods:five crossbred, non-lactating, and non-pregnantcattle were used in this study. they were fasted for 8 days_ totalfood deprivation; however, they had fr...

Intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) and plasma NEFA are important skeletal muscle fuel sources. By raising blood insulin concentrations, carbohydrate ingestion inhibits lypolysis and reduces circulating NEFA. We hypothesised that differences in the postprandial glycaemic and insulin response to carbohydrates (i.e. glycaemic index; GI) could alter NEFA availability and IMCL use during subsequent exerc...

Maternal adipose tissue is a major contributor to breast milk long-chain fatty acids, probably through the pool of plasma NEFA. The fatty acid composition of the erythrocyte membrane (EM) is a biochemical index of the intake of fatty acids not synthesized endogenously and of PUFA and long-chain PUFA fatty acid status. The present study investigated the associations between breast milk fatty aci...

It has long been recognized that acute elevation of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) stimulates insulin secretion to a moderate extent both in vitro and in vivo. The effects of longer-term exposure to elevated fatty acids have, however, been investigated only recently. Our own studies in the rat have documented the time dependence of NEFA effects, with inhibition of glucose-induced insulin sec...

To address the question of whether elevated concentrations of nonesterified fatty acids (NEFAs) are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, we measured NEFA concentrations in 140 diabetic and 343 nondiabetic unrelated Swedish subjects with a family history of type 2 diabetes and related the findings to history of cardiovascular disease in their parents. Parents of nondiabet...

We considered that accumulation of nonesterified (free) fatty acids (NEFAs) in the first trimester of pregnancy would mark women at excess risk of spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) and examined the interplay between NEFAs, lipids, and other markers to explore pathways to sPTB. In a case-control study nested in the Pregnancy Exposures and Preeclampsia Prevention Study (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 1...

BACKGROUND In ischemic conditions, concentration of circulating nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) is increased and has a proarrhythmic effect that is responsible for ventricular tachyarrhythmias. In nonischemic patients, high NEFA plasma concentration has been shown to be associated with frequent premature ventricular complexes and increased familial risk of cardiovascular disease, but its relat...
