n-3 Tetracosapentaenoic acid (24:5n-3, TPAn-3) and tetracosahexaenoic acid (24:6n-3, THA) are believed to be important intermediates to docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3) synthesis. The purpose of this study is to report for the first time serum concentrations of TPAn-3 and THA and their response to changing dietary α-linolenic acid (18:3n-3, ALA) and DHA. The responses will then be used in an attempt...
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is considered to be important for cardiac and brain function, and 17β-estradiol (E2) appears to increase the conversion of α-linolenic acid (ALA) into DHA. However, the effect of varying ALA intake on the positive effect of E2 on DHA synthesis is not known. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate the effects of E2 supplementation on tissue and serum fatty...
α-Linolenic acid (18:3ω3) has many important physiological functions including being β-oxidized, serving a precursor to the synthesis of other lipids and it has immunomodulation properties. The objective of the present study was to test the effects of immunization and dietary 18:3ω3 on immune function and the fatty acid profile of immunized pig tissues. Piglets suckled from sows consuming either a...
