Polyunsaturated fatty acids are known to affect plasma lipids and lipoproteins but there is no information on the effect of essential fatty acid (EFA) deficiency on lipoprotein composition. The purpose of this study was to characterize lipoproteins from 17 cystic fibrosis (CF) patients in relationship to their EFA status (eicosatrienoic/arachidonic acid ratio) and compare them with those of 10 ...

The present study was conducted to investigate the possible anxiolytic and sedative ofan acute administration and 4-day repeated dosing of an aqueous extract of flowers of Alceaaucheri (Boiss.) Alef. (EFA) in rats subjected to the elevated plus-maze (EPM), open-field, andhorizontal wire tests. All drugs were administered intraperitoneally. Phytochemical screeningconfirmed the presence of phenol...

study of phenotypic diversity among populations can help better understanding of diversification of species within ecosystems and intraspecific diversification in fishes. a geometric morphometric study was carried out using the elliptic fourier analysis to demonstrate the effect of habitat type on morphological features of shemaya ( alburnus chalcoides ) populations. populations were sampled fr...

BACKGROUND Essential fatty acid (EFA) requirements of patients receiving home parenteral nutrition (HPN) are uncertain. OBJECTIVE The objective was to evaluate the influence of the route of administration (enteral compared with parenteral) on plasma phospholipid EFA concentrations. DESIGN Intestinal absorption, parenteral supplement of EFAs, and plasma phospholipid EFA concentrations were i...

educational innovations are concerned with application of new ideas in educationalsystems. inclusive learning friendly environment (ilfe) may be considered as an educational innovation. through the ilfe, educational and learning opportunities could be planned and implemented for school age population without discrimination on the basis of sex, physical disabilities, language, ethnic, etc. diffe...

A comprehensive treatise on the extent and type of modification which can be elicited by changes in the composition of diet, particularly the fatty acid composition, on the phospholipid fatty acid content o f mammalian cell membranes is beyond the scope of this brief, rather eclectic, perspective. For a more complete and detailed understanding readers are referred to a number of excellent revie...
