Triacyglycerol levels above 2.0 mmol/l are according to contemporary findings an independent risk factor for the development of ischaemic heart disease. The triacylglycerol concentration of plasma provides information on the amount of lipoproteins, which carry also a major amount of cholesterol and
The peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is one of the three most important oil crops in the world due to its high average oil content (50 %). To reveal the biosynthetic pathways of seed oil in the early developmental stages of peanut pods with the goal of improving the oil quality, we presented a method
The transition from anhydrobiotic to hydrated state occurs during early imbibition of seeds and is lethal if lipid reserves in seeds are crystalline. Low temperatures crystallize lipids during seed storage. We examine the nature of cellular damage observed in seeds of Cuphea wrightii and C.
Specific histochemical techniques showed triacylglycerols to be the predominant neutral lipid in intracellular lipid droplets of uterine epithelial cells. After their extraction from pure samples of uterine epithelial cells, triacylglycerols were in lower concentration (microgram/microgram DNA)
Storage oil breakdown plays an important role in the life cycle of many plants by providing the carbon skeletons that support seedling growth immediately following germination. This metabolic process is initiated by lipases (EC: 3.1.1.3), which catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols (TAGs) to
Our objective was to determine the quantitative changes of individual triacylglycerol (TG) species in liver and carcass during early postnatal growth. Pregnant rats were killed at d 21 of pregnancy, and neonatal rats were killed at d 3 or 9 after birth. Quantitative changes in fatty acids and TG
OBJECTIVE
Little research has been done on the long-term longitudinal associations between markers of sedentary behaviour and health risks. We hypothesised that television (TV) viewing in early to mid-adulthood predicts an adverse cardiometabolic risk factor profile in middle age independently of
Developmental changes in the content and composition of major organ lipid pools are not well known. Our objective was to assess quantitatively the changes in lipids, particularly those containing long-chain fatty acids, in the placenta and the brain, liver, and carcass of the fetal and suckling rat.
Seeds of Arabidopsis contain ~40% of triacylglycerol. It is converted to sugar to support post germination growth. We identified an Arabidopsis T-DNA knockout mutant that was sugar dependent during early seedling establishment. Our study showed that the β-oxidation process involved in catabolising
Newborn rats were fed liquid diets containing 7 wt% fat in which 3.8% of the total fatty acids were 22:6n-3. The fats were either a specific structured oil with 22:6n-3 mostly located in the sn-2 position or a randomized oil with 22:6n-3 equally distributed in the triacylglycerol (TAG) molecules.
There are now several examples of plant species engineered to synthesize and accumulate nutritionally important polyunsaturated fatty acids in their seed triacylglycerols (TAG). The utilization of TAG in germinating seeds of such transgenic plants was unknown. In this study, we examined the TAG
We hypothesized that the maternal obesity initiates metabolic disorders associated with oxidative stress in the liver of offspring since early life. Mouse's mothers were assigned into 2 groups according to the diet offered (n = 10 per group): standard chow (SC) or high-fat diet (HF). The results
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the impact of high-intensity ultraendurance (HIU) cycling, using it as a possible way to understand muscle injury kinetics and blood immune cells' release during high-intensity prolonged exercise
METHODS
Male amateur triathletes enrolled during a cycling race of the
Liver diacylglycerol and phosphatidate are elevated following partial hepatectomy. These increases precede those in DNA synthesis and triacylglycerol accumulation. Possible factors involved in the increase in the lipids and the possible role of the lipids in liver regeneration are discussed.
Early events in the metabolic processing of dietary triacylglycerol may have an important impact on subsequent development of risk factors for coronary heart disease. We have used structured triacylglycerols containing predominantly stearic or oleic acids at the sn -2 position to probe aspects of
