Biological Role of Unsaturated Fatty Acid Desaturases in Health and Disease

Open access
Czumaj, Aleksandra, Śledziński, Tomasz·2020·Nutrients

Abstract

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are considered one of the most important components of cells that influence normal development and function of many organisms, both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Unsaturated fatty acid desaturases play a crucial role in the synthesis of PUFAs, inserting additional unsaturated bonds into the acyl chain. The level of expression and activity of different types of desaturases determines profiles of PUFAs. It is well recognized that qualitative and quantitative changes in the PUFA profile, resulting from alterations in the expression and activity of fatty acid desaturases, are associated with many pathological conditions. Understanding of underlying mechanisms of fatty acid desaturase activity and their functional modification will facilitate the development of novel therapeutic strategies in diseases associated with qualitative and quantitative disorders of PUFA.

  • Several clinical trials have shown beneficial effects of n-3 PUFA supplementation in ASD and ADHD, but not all results are consistent.

    “Several clinical trials have shown beneficial effects of n-3 PUFA supplementation in ASD and ADHD, but not all results are consistent and the ratio of EPA and DHA in n-3 PUFA supplements and the overall dietary intake of FAs may affect the clinical outcome62–65.”

    Section 3.3 links FADS gene variants to ADHD but does not report n-3 PUFA supplementation trials for ADHD or ASD. Its discussion of inconsistent supplementation results concerns schizophrenia, not either condition in the claim. Searches for ASD and ADHD supplementation trials found no passage addressing the claimed clinical outcomes. (LLM, conf=0.73)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
