Two diets were supplemented with n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs; 2% of linseed oil and soybean oil, respectively) and were compared with a control diet supplemented with a mono...
متن کاملMetabolism of n-3/n-6 fatty acids in blood and vascular cells.
Except in adipose tissue. polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA j of mammalian cells arc mainly located in membrane phospholipids where they have a structural role, and some of them serve as precursors o f oxygenated derivatives which may function as lipid mediators. Among these PUFA, arachidonic acid (20:4.n 6 ) , and to a lesser extent. linoleic acid ( 1 8:2, t i 6) are generally found in the hig...
متن کاملEffect of dietary n-3 and n-6 fatty acids on tobramycin induced nephrotoxicity.
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.
