Example sentences for: lc-pufa

How can you use “lc-pufa” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Fish oil feeding is well established to increase n3 LC-PUFA in hepatic PL as well as whole brain PL [ 18 ] ; whereas deficiency of n3 LC-PUFA can decrease 22:6n-3 in hippocampal PL [ 25 ] . DHA present in the brain can be formed from precursors in the liver or astrocytes, and intact DHA passes the blood brain barrier via selective transport mechanisms [ 26 ] . These data confirm that diets did result in actual increases in the brain of the appropriate FAs and set the stage for interpreting transcriptional responses observed in each organ.
Additionally, FUNG and FISH diets regulated some transcription factors not (Table 2) previously associated with these dietary oils, thereby indicating novel LC-PUFA mediated molecular mechanisms of action.
Nine hepatic cytochrome p450 family members were differentially regulated by LC-PUFA (Cyp1a2, Cyp2a4, Cyp2b9, Cyp3a11, Cyp3a16, Cyp4a10, Cyp4a14, Cypf13, and Por).
It is intriguing that, in general, both Acly and Fasn were more strongly down regulated with the combination diet than the individual LC-PUFA.
The most often cited action of n3 LC-PUFA is that they induce alterations in eicosanoids by antagonizing the primary substrate of eicosanoid metabolism: arachidonic acid (AA) [ 13 ] . Certainly, n3 LC-PUFA replace AA in cellular membranes to some extent and alter eicosanoid products, but is this the primary mechanism underlying the benefits of consuming fish?
