Recent global marine lipidomic analysis reveals a strong relationship between ocean temperature and phytoplanktonic abundance of omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which are essential for human nutrition and primarily sourced from phytoplankton in marine food webs. ...

Triacylglycerol (TAG) is among the most energy dense storage forms of reduced carbon in living systems. TAG metabolism plays critical roles in cellular energy balance, lipid homeostasis, cell growth and stress responses. In higher plants, microalgae and fungi, TAG is assembled by acyl-CoA-dependent and acyl-CoA-independent pathways catalyzed by dia...

Plant oils represent a large group of neutral lipids with important applications in food, feed and oleochemical industries. Most plants accumulate oils in the form of triacylglycerol within seeds and their surrounding tissues, which comprises three fatty acids attached to a glycerol backbone. Different plant species accumulate unique fatty acids in...

Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) prices reached record levels in 2023, due to the decline in global production, mainly linked to drought in the Mediterranean. Without effective controls, the already widespread fraud in this sector will irrevocably worsen. However, the reliability of the current standard method (CSM) for controlling the authenticity of...

peer reviewed / In the present study, the fatty acid composition (FAC), triacylglycerol (TAG) composition, crystallization, and melting behaviors of mango kernel fats (MKFs) extracted from seven Ivorian mango varieties—Amelie (AM), Kent (KT), Palmer (PR), Keitt (KI), Brooks (BR), Dadiani (DI), and Djakoumankoun (DN)—were characterized by complement...

Intracellular lipid droplets (LDs) are ubiquitous organelles found in many cell types. During mitosis, membranous organelles, including mitochondria, are divided into small pieces and transferred to daughter cells; however, the process of LD transfer to daughter cells is not fully elucidated. Herein, we investigated the behavior of LDs during mitos...

Childhood obesity predicts the presence of adult obesity. Obesity is associated with poor sperm quality. We hypothesized that exposure to a high-sugar diet (HSD) in early life would cause permanent histomorphology damage to the testes, resulting in reduced sperm quality in adult life. Wistar rats (aged 21days) were divided into four groups (n=6). I...

Lipids in health and disease
Lipin family members in mammals include lipins 1, 2, and 3. Lipin family proteins play a crucial role in lipid metabolism due to their bifunctionality as both transcriptional coregulators and phosphatidate phosphatase (PAP) enzymes. In this review, we discuss the structural features, expression patterns, and pathophysiologic functions of lipins, em...

The seasonal changes in muscle tissue, total lipids and fatty acid composition of phospholipids (PL), triacylglycerol (TAG), and phospholipid classes of male Capoeta umbla were investigated in this study. Phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylinositol (PI), and phosphatidylserine (PS) were identified as the major phos...

This study was performed to assess the effects of long-term intake of a very high carbohydrate (VHCHO) diet (76% of total energy from carbohydrate [CHO]) on whole-body glucose tolerance and hepatic insulin resistance. Male Sprague Dawley rats were fed either a control high-CHO diet (59% total energy from CHO; n = 8) or a VHCHO diet (76% total energ...
