Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in fatty acids metabolism during differentiation of Atlantic salmon preadipocytes; effects of n-3 and n-9 fatty acids.

TL;DR: This finding indicates that a reduced level of highly unsaturated n-3 fatty acids in fish diets, when the traditional marine oil is exchanged for n-9 fatty acids (FAs) rich vegetable oils (VOs), may influence visceral fat deposition in salmonids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dietary n-3 HUFA Affects Mitochondrial Fatty Acid β-Oxidation Capacity and Susceptibility to Oxidative Stress in Atlantic Salmon

TL;DR: Data show an increased incidence of oxidative stress in the liver of fish fed the high n-3 diets, with decreased percentages of major phospholipids in the mitochondrial and microsomal membranes of the liver.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of rapeseed oil and dietary n-3 fatty acids on triacylglycerol synthesis and secretion in Atlantic salmon hepatocytes.

TL;DR: The results show that the dietary FA composition markedly influences the endogenous FA composition and lipid content of the hepatocytes, and indicate that EPA and DHA possess different hypolipidemic properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

N-3 HUFAs affect fat deposition, susceptibility to oxidative stress, and apoptosis in Atlantic salmon visceral adipose tissue.

TL;DR: The increased activity of caspase 3 in the high n-3 HUFA groups suggested the induction of apoptosis and increased incidence of cell death in WAT, which may be one of the factors explaining the lower fat percentage found in these groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterisation of lipid transport in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) when fasted and fed high or low fat diets

TL;DR: The increased degree of blood capillary vascularisation (angiogenesis) found after fasting is likely to improve the supply of nutrients and FAs from the liver via serum to other organs and tissues.
