The goal of this study was to compare the short-term effects of dietary n-3 polyunsaturated (fish oil) and monounsaturated (olive oil) fatty acids on glucose transport, plasma glucose and lipid controls in a dietary insulin resistance model using sucrose-fed rats. The underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms were also determined in the muscle and adipose tissue. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (5 ...

Three Angus steers (410 kg) cannulated in the proximal duodenum were used in a replicated 3 x 3 Latin square to evaluate the effects of dietary lipid level and oil source on ruminal biohydrogenation and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) outflow. Dietary treatments included: 1) typical corn (TC; 79.2% typical corn), 2) high-oil corn (HOC; 79.2% high-oil corn), and 3) the TC diet with corn oil added...

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on serum and membrane lipids in rats fed diets containing moderate levels of fats (6% by weight). Control rats received enough PUFA to prevent any deficiency. Experimental rats were fed linseed oil, salmon oil, or sunflower oil. After 8 weeks of feeding, fasting serum triacylglycerol and cholesterol l...

diet is high 141. A number of mechanisms have been put forward to explain the effects of dietary fat o n mammary tumour incidence [ 1 I . Welsch & Aylsworth [51 have shown that dietary fat influences the mammographic response to exogenous hormones and have proposed that these effects may be mediated through dietary-fat-induced enhancement of the phosphoinositide signal transduction mechanism, s...

Edible oils form an essential part of the modern diet. These oils play a role as an energy source, and provide the diet with many beneficial micronutrients. Although a popular conception may be that fat should be avoided, certain edible oils as a dietary supplement may play an important role in the improvement of cardiovascular health. CVD has become one of the leading causes of death worldwide...

In this study, we evaluated on a comparative basis the dietary effect between eicosapentaenoic acid (C20:5, EPA)- containing soyphospholipid and soyphospholipid without EPA when added at 5% or 10% level by weight in soybean oil as the dietary oil on the proportions of lipid components in serum of rats. Rats were taken in five groups. One group was fed 20% soybean oil. Two groups received soybea...

The main objective of this study was to assess the effects of 4 g kg(-1) dietary mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) inclusion in soybean oil (SBO)- and fish oil (FO)-based diets on the gut health and skin mucosa mucus production of European sea bass juveniles after 8 weeks of feeding. Dietary MOS, regardless of the oil source, promoted growth. The intestinal somatic index was not affected, however d...

Post fish oil(n-3 fatty acids) treatment (5mg/kg/day for 12 days) was effective in bringing the reversal of tobramycin (160mg/kg/day,ip for 12 days) induced nephrotoxicity in albino rats as was evident by normal urea, creatinine, cholesterol and inorganic phosphate levels in the serum of the treatment group compared with group receiving tobramycin only. The return of normal levels of alkaline a...

The two dietary trials conducted in the present study (Papers I-III) used dietary rapeseed oil fed in a regression design and a full plant oil blend replacement for fish oil, respectively. The metabolic response of Atlantic salmon was examined in relation to gene expression (Paper I-III), lipid storage (Paper II and III) and fatty acid oxidation (Paper II). Furthermore, intracellular fatty acid...
