Resources and Bioactivities of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids

چکیده
Polyunsaturated fatty acids are essential to human health, in particular ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. However, they can not be produced by the body, and only can be obtained from the dietary sources such as vegetable oils, fish oils, and microalgae. Polyunsaturated fatty acids possess antioxidant, anti-inflammation and antibacterial activities, and have positive health effects in the treatment of chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, some cancers, and obesity. This review summarizes current knowledge about dietary sources and bioactivities of polyunsaturated fatty acids, and special attention is paid to the bioactivities.

Changes of fatty acid profiles in fillets of Cobia (Rachycentron canadum) during frozen storage
In this study changes in fatty acids profile during frozen storage at -18°C of Cobia (Rachycentron canadum), caught from the Persian Gulf (Bandar Abbas) were studied. Changes in saturated fatty acids (SFAs), monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), EPA+DHA/C16, n-3 PUFA/n-6 PUFA (n-3/n-6) and polyunsaturated fatty acids /saturated fatty acids (PUFA/SFA) were i...

In this study, seasonal variations of fatty acid amounts in muscle tissues of Capoeta caelestis were investigated. We have found that the ω3 contents of C. caelestis in spring, summer, autumn and winter were 17.43%, 15.29%, 17.54%, 13.63% in female and 16.96%, 19.25%, 18.66%, 14.76% in male, respectively. The amounts of ω3 polyunsaturated fatty acids were higher than those of ω6 polyunsaturated...
