Background. Fat affects gastric emptying (GE). 5-Hydroxythryptophan (5-HTP) is involved in central and peripheral satiety mechanisms. Influence of 5-HTP in addition to saturated or monounsaturated fatty acids (FA) on GE and hormone release was investigated. Subjects/Methods. 24 healthy individuals (12f : 12m, 22-29 years, BMI 19-25.7 kg/m²) were tested on 4 days with either 5-HTP + short-chain ...

This study analyzes 174 tank milk samples taken from 89 commercial farms located all along the Cantabrian Coast (Green Spain). Sampling was performed in two periods: autumn 2016 and spring 2017. A survey carried out for every day of sampling to record average lactating dairy cow production its diet composition. For each sample, fatty acid (FA) profile (49 FA plus main relationships) nine fat-so...

Information about lipid content and fatty acid (FA) composition of muskoxen (Ovibos moschatos) edible tissues is very limited in comparison to other meat sources. Thus, this work aims to present the first in-depth characterization of the FA profile of meat, subcutaneous adipose tissue and liver of muskoxen living in West Greenland. Furthermore, we aim to evaluate the effect of sex in the FA com...

In food formulations, lipids are normally incorporated as emulsions stabilized by different types of emulsifiers. The emulsifiers can affect fatty acid (FA) solubilization they interact with FA. main purpose the present work is development a methodology to evaluate FA in an aqueous medium absence and presence exogenous To this end, combination turbidimetry, oiling off dynamic light scattering (...

We investigated the effects of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) on endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) at the molecular level and assessed the therapeutic potential of folic acid (FA) in DM. We downloaded the gene expression profile of the EPCs from T1DM patients before and after treatment with FA and from healthy controls. We identified the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the EPCs from...

Fanconi anemia (FA) is a congenital bone marrow failure syndrome in association with increased susceptibility to malignancy. We report the first in-depth description of a boy with FA who developed acute myeloid leukemia with complex hypodiploidy karyotype after successful stem cell transplantation. Of note, the leukemic cells consistently showed loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of the short arm of ...

Thirty-three young bulls from Tudanca local breed were used to investigate the effect of two production systems (semi-extensive vs. intensive) and two slaughter ages (12 vs. 14months) on meat fatty acid (FA) composition. Longissimus thoracis from semi-extensive animals had a lower percentage of intramuscular fat (p≤0.001), saturated FAs (p≤0.05), trans-18:1 (p≤0.001), n-6/n-3 ratio (p≤0.001) an...

We compared a fluorescein-conjugated monoclonal antibody (FA) direct specimen test (MicroTrak; Syva Co., Palo Alto, Calif.) with culture (TC) in McCoy cells (vials, with blind passage and iodine staining of inclusions) for diagnosis of Chlamydia trachomatis infection in the cervix. Duplicate specimens were collected from 1,230 women, but for 262 of these subjects, both results were unavailable ...

The present study aimed to determine the tissue-specific robustness of fatty acid (FA) signatures of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata L.) by analyzing the changes in lipid class and FA composition of skeletal muscle, brain, liver, and mesenteric adipose tissue. Triplicate groups of fish were fed to visual satiety over a 14-mo production cycle with 2 practical plant protein-based diets formulat...

BACKGROUND Fatty acid (FA) profile is often altered, in morbidly obese subjects, both before and after bariatric surgery. We measured FA plasma levels before and 6 months after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), in order to evaluate their relationship with different biological and psychological parameters and the impact of RYGB on the FA plasma levels. METHODS Thirty eight morbidly obese patien...
