Economic viability of biodiesel production relies mainly on the productivity biomass and microalgal lipids. In addition, omega fatty acids is favorable for human nutrition. Thus, enhancement lipid accumulation with high proportion could help dual use lipids in nutrition through biorefinery. that context, phytohormones have been identified as a promising factor to increase production. However, n...

The objective of this study was to examine the effects of different sources of dietary omega-3 (n-3) fatty acid supplementation on plasma, red blood cell, and skeletal muscle fatty acid compositions in horses. Twenty-one mares were blocked by age, BW, and BCS and assigned to 1 of 3 dietary treatments with 7 mares per treatment. Dietary treatments were: 1) control or no fatty acid supplement (CO...

Background Previous studies have reported inconsistent findings regarding the efficacy of omega-3 fatty acids on pregnant women with major depressive disorder (MDD). This meta-analysis was conducted to systematically evaluate the clinical applicability of omega-3 fatty acids in treating depression in pregnant women. Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared omega-3 fatty acids ...

Introduction: Exercise training and omega 3 supplements play an important role in modulating the levels of oxidative and inflammatory mediators. The present study conducted aimed to investigate the effects of aerobic training and omega-3 supplementation on the levels of oxidative (MDA) and inflammatory (CRP) mediators and lipid profile in overweight and obese women. Materials and Methods: The ...

The biological effects of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are determined by their mutual interactions. This interaction extremely affects various functions. Lower consumption of omega-3 during gestation leads to various disorders, even in hearing. We aimed to assess the effect of low omega-3/omega-6 ratios on auditory nerve conduction. In this experimental study, the auditory brainstem response...

Polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids (omega-3 PUFA) are important components of cell membrane affecting its function and their deficiency is deleterious to health. We have previously shown that spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) are prone to life-threatening arrhythmias that are reduced by omega-3 PUFA intake. Purpose of this study was to explore plasma and red blood cells (RBC) profile of om...
