Omega-3 fatty acids and metabolic syndrome: effects and emerging mechanisms of action.

Prog. Lipid Res. 50 , 372-387, (2011)

Epidemiological, human, animal, and cell culture studies show that n-3 fatty acids, especially α-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), reduce the risk factors of cardiovascular diseases. EPA and DHA, rather than AL...

Fish oil and omega-3 fatty acids in cardiovascular disease: do they really work?

Eur. Heart J. 33(4) , 436-43, (2011)

Omega-3 fatty acids, which are found abundantly in fish oil, exert pleiotropic cardiometabolic effects with a diverse range of actions. The results of previous studies raised a lot of interest in the role of fish oil and omega-3 fatty acids in primary and sec...

The effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) on the sleep parameters of the rat pups.

Endocrinology 26 , 155-158, (1988)

In order to verify the hypothesis that at least during perinatal life the amount of active sleep (AS) is dependent on the level of the brain maturation, newborn rats received by an i.p. route for 6 days, a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFAs) preparation (Vitam...

Developmentally dependent and different roles of fatty acids OMEGA-6 and OMEGA-3.

Prague Med. Rep. 112 , 81-92, (2011)

The developmentally-dependent differences in the biological significances and effects of PUFA-OMEGA-6 (namely of arachidonic acid) and PUFA-OMEGA-3 (namely of docosahexaenoic acid) are discussed. The clinical results as well as developmental experiences are i...

[Essential unsaturated fatty acids].

Nihon Rinsho. 57 , 2242-2246, (1999)

Linoleic and alpha-linolenic acids are essential unsaturated fatty acids which were referred to as vitamin F much earlier. Their biological significance is to be converted to eicosapolyenoic acids including arachidonic acid which are the precursors of bioacti...

n-6 Fatty acids and cardiovascular health: a review of the evidence for dietary intake recommendations.

Br. J. Nutr. 104 , 788-796, (2010)

n-6 PUFA are well known for their critical role in many physiological functions and seem to reduce risks of CHD. However, some argue that excessive consumption of n-6 PUFA may lead to adverse effects on health and therefore recommend reducing dietary n-6 PUFA...
