Two sequential experiments were conducted to assess the effect of replacing a fish oil diet with vegetable oil diets on broiler chicken performance and fatty acid (FA) composition and sensory traits of broiler meat. A diet enriched with 8.2% fish oil (FO) was fed to the birds throughout the 5-wk growth period (T1), the same basal diet being supplemented with 8.2% linseed oil (LO, Experiment 1) or rapeseed oil (RO, Experiment 2) in three different periods: the last week before slaughtering at 35 d (T2), the last 2 wk (T3), and throughout the experiment (T4). A sensory evaluation of the meat was carried out and its FA profile was determined. Performance parameters were not significantly different among treatments. Removing FO resulted in lower values of saturated and higher n-6 FA content, the latter because of the increase in linoleic acid in both experiments. The amounts of long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) were significantly depressed when FO was replaced. However, replacing FO by LO resulted in minimal effects on total n-3 FA, due to the increase in linolenic acid. The substitution of FO by RO resulted in a decrease in the n-3 FA content, whereas levels of monounsaturated FA (MUFA) increased in direct relation to the larger amounts of oleic acid in the diet. Sensory panelists scored as unacceptable those meats from T1 in both experiments. Replacing 1 (T2) or 2 (T3) wk FO with vegetable oil clearly resulted in the improved sensory quality of meat.

A high sucrose, high linoleic acid diet potentiates hypertension in the Dahl salt sensitive rat.
Zhang HY, Reddy S, Kotchen TA.

Insulin resistance can be induced by diets high in simple carbohydrates or fatty acids. To determine whether these nutrients also affect arterial pressure in genetic models of salt sensitive and salt resistant hypertension, Dahl salt sensitive (S) and salt resistant (R) rats were each fed the following isocaloric diets containing 3% NaCl for 4 weeks (10 rats/group): 1) control; 2) high sucrose (60%); 3) high linoleic acid (LA, provided as 10% safflower oil); and 4) high sucrose plus high LA. Tail systolic blood pressures (SBP) were measured weekly, and at 4 weeks, direct mean arterial pressures (MBP) were measured in conscious animals. Insulin sensitivity was assessed by in vitro uptake of tritiated glucose by adipocytes in response to graded doses of insulin. Weight gain did not differ among groups. High sucrose alone and high LA alone did not affect blood pressure in either strain. However, SBP and MBP were increased (P < .05) by the high sucrose plus high LA diet in Dahl-S but not in Dahl-R rats. Sucrose alone and LA alone decreased (P < .05) insulin sensitivity in Dahl-S and Dahl-R rats. In both strains, sucrose plus LA decreased insulin sensitivity to a greater extent (P < .05) than sucrose alone or LA alone. Thus, the sucrose plus LA diet decreased insulin sensitivity in both Dahl-S and Dahl-R rats, whereas blood pressure was increased only in Dahl-S rats. The phenotype of elevated arterial pressure is influenced both by a genetic-nutrient interaction and by an interaction among specific nutrients resulting in insulin resistance.

Factors influencing the levels of fatty acid synthase complex activity in fowl.
Li M, Shi Y, Tian W.
Institute of Biophysics, Academia Sinica, Beijing, P.R., China.
There is a notable discrepancy between the FAS (fatty acid synthase) activity of four types of fowl (egg chicken, meat chicken, egg duck, and meat duck) with distinctively different body fat levels. There is a 14.8 fold difference per unit body weight between the maximum and minimum FAS activities. The three major factors affecting this discrepancy are liver weight per unit body weight, which is 2.3 times greater in meat ducks than in egg chickens, the amount of FAS protein per gram of liver, which is 1.85 times greater in meat ducks than in egg chickens, and the FAS specific activity in meat ducks, which is 3.5 times greater in meat ducks than in egg chickens. Within the same species of egg chickens, the abdomen fat per kg of body weight at 470 days after egg production is 66 times greater than 90 days before egg production and the liver FAS activity is increased 9.6 fold. The 9.6 fold FAS activity increase resulted from an increase in the specific activity, since the liver weight per kilogram of body weight remained constant at approx. 20 grams and the FAS weight per gram of liver also remained constant at approx. 4.5 mg. This shows that the control of the basic FAS activity level which is closely related to the level of body fat does not mainly arise from genetic control. For the same kind of fowl, the control of the basic FAS activity level occurs after gene expression. It is suggested that control may be imposed in the folding phase when new peptides give rise to functional proteins.

High-level expression of rat class I alcohol dehydrogenase is sufficient for ethanol-induced fat accumulation in transduced HeLa cells.
Galli A, Price D, Crabb D.
Department of Clinical Pathophysiology, University of Florence, Florence, Italy.
The mechanisms by which ethanol causes fatty liver are complex. Reducing equivalents generated during ethanol oxidation inhibit tricarboxylic acid cycle activity and fatty acid oxidation. In addition, ethanol inhibits lipoprotein export and increases fatty acid uptake and lipid peroxidation. To test the role that alcohol metabolism by alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) has on cellular lipid metabolism, a cell line expressing rat ADH was generated by transducing HeLa cells with an ADH-expressing retrovirus. The cells expressed high levels of ADH protein and had ADH activity similar to that of liver. Exposure of the cells to 20 mmol/L ethanol for 24 hours led to substantial accumulation of free fatty acids and triacylglycerol in the transduced, but not wild-type, HeLa cells. The rate of synthesis of saponifiable lipid was increased significantly by ethanol under these conditions. Ethanol exposure also promoted triacylglycerol accumulation when the cells were incubated with linoleic acid. This was associated with a decrease in the rate at which the cells oxidized 1-[14-C]-linoleic acid. Fat accumulation was not prevented by including alpha-tocopherol in the medium, arguing against a role for lipid peroxidation. However, the presence of methylene blue completely prevented the fat accumulation. This was associated with a return of the elevated lactate/pyruvate ratio toward normal. These data suggest that generation of reducing equivalents by ADH was sufficient to cause fat accumulation in this cell model.

Natural Herbal Supplement: Hair Million
Hair Loss, or alopecia is a concern
for increasing number of folks in aging society. Loss of hair is a visible problem, and affects the appearance and changes identity of a person.
The phenomenon of hair thinning and hair loss is most commonly associated with natural aging, although there are many other causes of hair loss, which include inherited or genetic conditions, illnesses, malnutrition, stress, hormonal problems, chemotherapy, and use of some drugs.
Hair growth is a sophisticated biological process, which has not yet been completely understood. A multitude of therapeutic measures, including drugs, surgery, and suppelements have been made available, and used. However, due to the heterogeneity in the underlying cause, there is no perfect cure for all hair loss cases. Most of chemical drugs and hair transplantation surgeries are not free from varying degrees of undesirable side effects on health.
Hair Million is an alternative solution to hair loss problems. Anecdotally, it shows prositive results and improvement for age-related hair thinning and hair loss for a fraction of people who take it. We do not know the mechanisms of action as to how Hair Million works to help stop hair loss, and promote hair growth. We only know by anecdotal observations. There has been no clinical trials nor placebo controlled statistical analysis on the efficacy of Hair Million on hair loss and hair growth. However, there are two merits in this hair restoration herbal formula:
Firstly, Hair Million is rather inexpensive, and secondly, it is made of well known herbs that are safe when consumed in regular quantities.
DHEA is a natural hormone, and it is produced in our body by the adrenal glands.
DHEA has been suggested to provide numerous potential benefits. DHEA (or dehydroepiandrosterone) is converted into androgens (male hormones)
or estrogens (female hormones) in the cells.
