nervonic acid/rapeseed

The effects of addition of ethanol to diets containing rapeseed or ground nut oil on the metabolic conversions of 14 14C erucic and 9-10 3H oleic acid were studied in the rat liver. 1. Whatever the diet more 14C than 3H radioactivity was recovered in liver lipids 2 and 19 hours after injection of

A mixture of albumin-bound [14C]erucate and [3H]oleate was injected into rats fed a stock pellet diet containing 4% by weight of lipid. Chylomicrons containing the same labelled fatty acids were also injected into rats fed diets containing 15% by weight of rapeseed oil (48% of erucic acid), canbra

Increasing recent evidence suggests a key role of oligodendroglial injury and demyelination in the pathophysiology of Huntington's Disease (HD) and the transcription factor PPARδ is critical for oligodendroglial regeneration and myelination. PPARδ directly involves in the pathogenesis of HD and

In this study, an analytical method for the detection and identification of extra virgin olive oil adulteration with four types of oils (corn, peanut, rapeseed, and sunflower oils) was proposed. The variables under evaluation included 22 fatty acids and 6 other significant parameters (the ratio of

Weanling male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed diets containing 20% by weight corn, soybean or low erucic acid rapeseed oils or mixtures of the latter two with cocoa butter or triolein for 1, 2, 3 or 4 weeks. These diets previously had been fed to the same strain of rats for 16 weeks, and a reduction in

Erucic acid (cis-docosa-13-enoic acid, C22:1∆13) and nervonic acid (cis-tetracosa-15-enoic acid, C24:1 ∆15) are important renewable feedstocks in plastic, cosmetic, nylon, and lubricant industries. Furthermore, nervonic acid is also applied to the treatment of some neurological diseases. However,
