background and aim: omega 3 of essential fatty acids, especially in fish oil form plays an important role in structural, functional, and biological aspects in body. omega 3 deficiency can have devastating effects on the nervous system and auditory. this study aimed to evaluate auditory threshold in n-3 fatty acid-deficient rat pups following supplementation of fish oil consumption during the suc...

clinical differential diagnosisthe organic acidemias are important in the differential diagnosis of metabolic and neurologic derangement in the neonate and of new-onset neurologic signs in the older child. a-organic aciduriaseveral disorders, not classified as primary disorders of organic acid metabolism, have a characteristic urinary organic acid profile that suggests the appropriate diagnosis...

Abstract Introduction: Omega 3 fatty acid especially in the form of fish oil, has structural and biological role in the body's various systems especially nervous system. Numerous studies have tried to research about it. Auditory is one of the affected systems. Omega 3 deficiency can have devastating effects on the nervous system and auditory. This study aimed to evaluate neural conduction in n-...

The free fatty acid and total fatty acid profiles in plasma of nine patients with medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency, two with very-long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency and two with mild-type multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MAD-m) deficiency, were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. In the plasma of patients with MCAD deficiency we found increas...

In most mammals, proper placentation along with its morphology is critical for fetal development and pregnancy success. Fatty acid binding protein 3 (FABP3) has been shown to regulate the transportation of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) to the fetus, but its impact on placental morphology and genetic alteration of fatty acid transporters in trophoblast cells is still unknown. Using mice mode...

N-3 essential fatty acid deficiency affects a number of biological and physiological processes. In this study, we investigated the effect of n-3 essential fatty acid status on two key pineal biochemical functions, melatonin production and lipoxygenation, using pineal glands from rats given an n-3-adequate or n-3-deficient diet. The pineal total lipid profile and phospholipid molecular species d...

This study examined the effects of dietary alpha-linolenic acid deficiency followed or not by supplementation with phospholipids rich in n;-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) on the fatty acid composition of total phospholipids in 11 brain regions. Three weeks before mating, mice were fed a semisynthetic diet containing both linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid or deficient in alpha-linolenic aci...

CD36 is a fatty acid transporter expressed in various tissues including adipose, heart, and skeletal muscle tissues. The elevated fasting triglyceride levels,intermediate-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, and postprandial hyperlipidemia observed in human CD36 deficiency have been suggested as being due to abnormal fatty acid metabolism and insulin resistance (1,2). Lipid abnormalities and...
