Biochemical studies on the metabolism of some fatty acids

Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the protective effect of blended vegetable oils, consists of chia seed and sunflower oils, with varying ratios of n-6/n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), on lipid profile, liver functions, adipocyte functions. and evaluating the hepatic bioconversion of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA,18:3, n-3) to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5, n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6, n-3), in rats with or without having high-fat diet.
